The New York company is negotiating with International Business Machines Corp. and others to sell a stake in Citigroup Global Services Ltd., the newspaper said, citing unidentified people familiar with the development.

Captive business process outsourcing units are typically as much as 40% more expensive to operate than those run by an outside company, Mint said.

Sanjay Nayar, Citigroup's India chief executive, would not discuss the report.
