Bharti Airtel Ltd’s proposal to merge with MTN Group Ltd—not one buying the other—would be placed before the MTN board by the end of this week and likely taken up by the Johannesburg company’s board early next week, say people familiar with the talks between the two telecom companies. But a few industry analysts also predict MTN, Africa’s largest phone firm, will have to be valued at about $50 billion, or $25 a share (Rs1,060 per share), about 25% more than its current value, for a deal to be consummated.
