The report said that TPG was keen to get on board but the specifics of the deal were yet to be put in place. “TPG and Mu Sigma are trying to explore if a deal is workable. The discussions have been substantial but contours of the transaction are yet to evolve,” sources told the paper, adding that the two companies have not involved any investment banks yet.
