BERLIN, May 2 (Reuters) - Thyssenkrupp TKAG.DE said on Saturday it has paused talks with Jindal Steel International about a possible sale of the German industrial group's steel unit. "The original assumptions and prerequisites for a potential sale of Thyssenkrupp Steel have significantly changed in recent months," Thyssenkrupp said in a statement, adding that the decision to halt the talks was mutual. Reuters reported in March that the discussions could be called off due to differences over pension liabilities, investments and energy costs, citing four people familiar with the matter.
