Mergers And Acquisitions: An Introspective Analysis on the External Interference on It In India

Abstract

In today’s corporate environment, the deals of merger and acquisition (M&A’s) have drastically surged up. Mergers and Acquisitions are quite often considered as one of the best strategic methods to confront the competitive market. These deals are usually undertaken with the aim of creating synergy and maximising shareholders wealth. The process of M&A’s in India is usually court driven and hence problematic and time consuming at the same time. The process may be initiated through written agreements between the two parties of merger, but that does not finalise the process as it is not sufficient enough to provide a legal cover to the merger. For bringing the agreement into effect, the sanction of High Court or National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) is required.
