The second stage of the corporate sukuk is expected to be issued in the second half of 2012 or early 2013, but further details were not available.
Muamalat has appointed Bahana Securities, Danareksa Sekuritas and Indo Premier Securities as underwriters on the deal.
In February, Bank Islam, the second largest sharia bank in Malaysia, was reportedly in early talks to buy a stake in PT Bank Muamalat.
