This has been an eventful year for Sembcorp Industries. With the group's moves in India - it raised its stake in a renewable-energy business to 100 per cent, won two wind- power projects and was awarded master development rights to Andhra Pradesh's upcoming capital city - an IPO of its Indian business would not be surprising.
