The portfolio rejig has come at a time when the Jeff Bezos-founded company is fighting a legal battle with Reliance Industries to stop the Mumbai-based conglomerate from acquiring Kishore Biyani’s Future Group.

Amazon also plans to acquire 100 per cent stake in the biggest seller on its marketplace, Cloudtail.

In December, Catamaran, the investment office of NR Narayana Murthy, Co Founder, Infosyss and Amazon announced the deal, which is subject to regulatory approval. Amazon had to reduce its stake from 49 per cent to 24 per cent in Cloudtail’s parent Prione Business Services in 2019 to comply with the new foreign direct investment (FDI) regulations for ecommerce.
