The company said the deal will generate enough proceeds to repay 100% of its bank debt. Ebix said it has, "received bids from a mix of strategic and financial bidders who have already completed substantial due diligence." It's also progressing with its plan to complete an initial public offering $(IPO.UK)$ of its EbixCash unit in India. It plans to announce an IPO listing date publicly "as soon as it has the requisite approvals in place," the company said.
