Oman Telecommunication Co. (Omantel) on Monday said it has signed a non-binding letter of intent with Kuwait-based Al Khair to buy its 12 percent stake in Mobile Telecommunication Co. (Zain Group).
Al Khair is currently evaluating the offer from Omantel, the Muscat-listed telco said in a bourse statement.
The price for the stake sale was not specified.
