SoftBank is trying to sell FreeCharge “separately for as low as $150-200 million,” a Times of India report said.


“Alibaba-owned Paytm is one of the front-runners to clinch Freecharge if terms between the two parties are agreed upon,” the TOI report added.


The Softbank-backed Snapdeal had acquired FreeCharge in April 2015.


Last month Snapdeal appointed the CEO of FreeCharge and said it will infuse an additional USD 20 million into the e-wallet firm.
