Bengaluru, Jan 23 (ANI): Biocon Ltd would list its research services business arm Syngene by selling up to 15 percent stake in a public offer, the company said, after reporting third-quarter earnings on Friday (January 23). Biocon had previously said it planned to list Syngene but had not given a timeline.
