Shares of the company, which makes the "Sleepwell" brand of mattresses, had jumped about 6% after news website Moneycontrol reported the deal earlier on Monday. They are still down about 7% since talks were first reported late in December.

Kurlon has over 50 warehouses and 12 manufacturing facilities across five Indian states, according to its latest annual report.

Ghaziabad-based Sheela Foam said it expects to complete the transaction by November 30, 2023.

Kurlon's sales rose 5.4% to 8.09 billion rupees in fiscal 2022. Audited figures for Kurlon's fiscal 2023 were not available yet, Sheela Foam said.

Sheela Foam also said it will acquire about 35% in furniture rental company Furlenco for 3 billion rupees.
