Private equity player TPG Growth on Friday sold shares of e-commerce beauty company Nykaa for more than Rs 1,000 crore.

As many as 5.42 crore shares of FSN E-Commerce Ventures, which runs Nykaa, were offloaded at a price of Rs 184.55 apiece through a block deal, as per data from the National Stock Exchange (NSE).

The total value of the transaction is a little over Rs 1,000 crore, the data showed.
