KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 16): Malaysia Aerospace Engineering Sdn Bhd (MAE), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Malaysian Airline System Bhd (MAS), had disposed its 44.61% equity stake in the MAS GMR Aerospace Engineering Company Ltd (MGAE) to GMR Infrastructure Ltd.

According to a filing dated Dec 12 (last Friday) with Bombay Stock Exchange, India, GMR said its subsidiary company, GMR Hyderabad International Airport Limited (GHIAL), had acquired 9.68 million shares, representing 44.61% stake in MGAE, from MAS's engineering arm on Dec 12.
