Oil India and ONGC (via OVL) concluded a deal to buy Videocon 's 10 percent stake in oil fields in Mozambique. Speaking to CNBC-TV18, Videocon Group's Rajkumar Dhoot says that the group will continue to operate in the oil and gas sector with its oil fields in Brazil.

Dhoot says he is not fully informed of the purpose of the amount received from the sale of stake to ONGC . He adds that the group is keen on making a foray into the banking sector and has applied for a banking licence already.

Below is the edited transcript of the interview on CNBC-TV18

Q: Of the USD 2.5 billion that you are to receive, what is the portion that accounts for profit? In which quarter of the year's profit and loss account will it reflect?

A: We have just completed the deal and we are yet to decide. The chairman is in Mumbai and at a meeting of the board in about three hours in Dubai we will be able to decide what needs to be done.

Q: Can you confirm of the entire amount will go into the books of the listed Videocon company?

A: I am not the right person. The deal has just been completed. I request you to talk to my brother, Venugopal Dhoot who is in Mumbai.

Q: Are you planning to sell some of your other assets too?

A: We have a very big oil field in Brazil with large reserves. We want to continue to operate in this oil business.

Q: So, you don't want to exit the Brazilian venture?

A: No way. The Brazil oil field is the crown jewel of the Videocon Group's oil foray.
 
Q: Are you also planning to apply for a banking licence?

A: We have not yet decided. We have zeroed in on a partner but we will not disclose that right now. But we are very keen on a banking licence.

Q: Is the partner from overseas?

A: It maybe. Our insurance arm, Liberty operates in overseas markets. We are to decide.

Q: When will the decision be taken?

A: In about four-to-five days.
