Amazon eyes stake in India's Reliance Retail

Amazon eyes stake in India's Reliance Retail.

  • Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) is again setting its M&A sights on India, where it is engaged in a pitched battle with Walmart's (NYSE:WMT) Flipkart in what is viewed as one of their most important growth markets.

  • According to the Economic Times, Amazon is in exploratory talks with Reliance Retail for buying up to 26% stake in India's biggest brick-and-mortar retailer.

  • Talks began after Reliance's negotiations with Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) fell through due to differences over valuation.
