MUMBAI/BENGALURU (Reuters) – Amazon.com Inc is set to snag a minority stake in India’s Future Retail Ltd , which operates more than 900 stores in India and owns several supermarket brands, including Big Bazaar. In a regulatory filing late on Thursday, Future Retail said Amazon has agreed to acquire a 49% stake in Future Coupons Ltd. That entity in turn owns a 7.3% interest in Future Retail, according to prior regulatory filings. The companies did not disclose the value of the deal, which gives Amazon a 3.58% stake in the brick-and-mortar retailer, whose stores sell everything from clothes to fresh produce.
