Reuters - UK Focus

MUMBAI/NEW DELHI, June 11 (Reuters) - India's Essar Group plans to sell the Stanlow refinery in Britain, three sources familiar with the matter said on Wednesday.

Essar Energy (LSE: ESSR.L - news) declined to comment.

A formal sales process will be launched after all the requirements related to the delisting of Essar Energy from the London Stock Exchange (Other OTC: LDNXF - news) , two of the sources said.
