Owners of IPL Teams/Franchise and The Prices at Which They Were Bought
The spiralling controversy over the shareholders of the Kochi franhise has led to questions over the ownership of the eight franchisees now playing in the Indian Premier League.
Though most of the names of the shareholders of the franchisees have been in public domain, the spat between Lalit Modi and Shashi Tharoor has brought the focus back on them.
If Modi has questioned the ownership of the new franchise Kochi, the Kerala team’s shareholders want to know the owners of all the franchises if there is no confidentiality about them. The other franchise sold last month was bought by Sahara India. A couple of franchisees sold a small stake here and there, but most of the chief promoters of the eight franchisees remain intact.
