The move will need shareholder and other regulatory approvals and the process could take two to three months, the source said, declining to be named as they are not authorised to speak to the media.The company was valued at 776.29 billion rupees as of Wednesday, down by about a third so far this year. Its shares climbed 1.2% on Thursday morning following the reports of a split.
