Baring Private Equity Asia has increased the proposed buyback of shares in NIIT Technologies from 26 per cent to 35 per cent as per a stock-exchange filing. The company had earlier acquired a 30 per cent stake in the technology firm for Rs 2,627 crore.

JM Financial, the manager for the open offer said in a filing that Baring PE Asia would now buy as many as 21.85 million shares for upto RS 3,045.47 crore as against 16.23 million at Rs 2,262.35 crore proposed earlier.
