The document provides a comprehensive study on mergers and acquisitions in the Indian corporate sector. It discusses key deals in various sectors between 2007-2009 and analyzes the financial performance and synergies achieved by the acquiring companies. The research methodology involves ratio analysis and t-tests to test hypotheses about changes in liquidity, solvency, profitability and other metrics after various acquisitions. Key findings include improvements in liquidity, solvency and returns for most acquisitions, but some deals showed no significant changes or needed improvements in specific areas. Suggestions focus on cost reduction and inventory management.

2. MERGER & ACQUISITON CHANGING
INDIAN CORPORATE SECTOR
MNCs have actively participated in M&A process :
to get market entry or to strengthen their presence
to quickly get access to various complementary assets
Relatively cheaper access to capital
to capture huge Indian market at relatively low cost of capital
to improve manufacturing capabilities
OTHERS:
The reliance of Indian Corporate Sector on Foreign Technology purchase
has increased
To stand up to transnational with their strong and internationally
recognized brands
4. Meanings:
MERGER: When two companies become one entity with a new
name, and agree upon shared control in the management of
the new company, a merger is said to have taken place
ACQUISITION: When two companies become one, but with the
name and control of the acquirer, and the control goes
automatically into the hands of the acquirer. An
acquisition, also known as a takeover or a buyout, is the buying
of one company by another
6. PROCESS OF M&A
PLANNING PHASE IMPLEMENTATION PHASE
Develop Business Plan Search companies for Acquisition
Develop Acquisition Plan Screen & prioritize Potential
companies
Initiate Contact with Target
Negotiate the deal
Develop Integration plan
Obtain necessary approval & close
the deal
Implement Integration
7. MODE OF FINANCING
Cash
Financing:
Leverage or Buyouts
Exchange Ratio
Internal Accrual
Factoring
Hybrids
8. REASONS FOR FAILURE OF M&A
Cultural Diversity leads to Differences
Negligence in Due Diligence Process
Inefficiency of Management
Improper valuation of acquisition deal
Difficult to meet with the complexity of rules
and regulations
10. OBJECTIVES:
To apply theoretical concept of merger and acquisition in practical
manner.
To study the impact on Companies’ Financial Position after acquisition or
after being acquired.
To analyze the effect of going global through merger and acquisition on
Investors’ Earnings respectively.
To evaluate the worthiness of the company before and after merger and
acquisition.
11. TOOLS
Ratio Analysis
T- Test
HYPOTHESIS:
• Ho1: The merged companies did not achieve better liquidity after merger and
acquisition. The parameters used are current ratio and quick ratio.
• Ho2: The merged companies did not achieve better solvency after merger and
acquisition. The parameters used are debt equity ratio, interest coverage
ratio, long term debt equity and total assets to owners fund.
• Ho3: The merged companies did not achieve better profitability after merger and
acquisition.
• Ho4: After the merger and acquisition, Management of the focused companies got
inefficient
The parameter used as dividend per share, operating profit per share:
• Ho5: Return on capital employed did not change after merger and acquisition.
• Ho6: Operating profit margin did not show any change after merger and
acquisition.
• Ho7: Average cost of capital did not show any change after merger and acquisition.
12. LIMITATIONS:
The Project emphasis on a limited sample
One serious limitation of the study is, that it is quite difficult
to analyzes the in-depth study of the financial data, as some
acquirer company is cross-bordered based firm so their
accounting standard and methods are different
There are many tools and methods for evaluating the Merger
and Acquisitions but we had used only pre and post analysis

25. Though it was observed in TATA Steel Ltd before, that its profitability is better
than premerger, still it needs to be attentive and careful about its cost
reduction system as Gross Profit Margin & Return on Long Term Fund are
showing a negative trend
The Sterlite unit and Tech Mahindra must reduce the days of credit facility
made available to their customers as its credit policy is too liberal during post
M&A project
The Tech Mahindra and Others should reduce their investment in inventory by
using Inventory Control Techniques.
These units are required to use the latest Supply Chain Techniques like Just-In-
Time, Efficient Customer Response and Quick Response which focus on
reducing the inventory level and thereby reducing capital required the
inventory.
Though it was observed in ONGC Ltd before, that its profitability is better than
premerger, still it needs to be attentive and careful about its cost reduction
system as Gross Profit Margin & Return on Long Term Fund are showing a
negative trend
27. So, it is concluded that:
Steel Industry is highly capital intensive sector and the whole investment
of TATA Steel Ltd cannot be capitalized in a short duration
Acquisition of ASARCO Ltd. Is not much effective for Sterlite Industries Ltd.
For Daichii Sankyo, M&A benefits the investors at a greater extent
For ONGC, the tool of M&A has not proved as effective as it was expected
Tech Mahindra can achieve success in long term as company is providing
maximum return on investment and also shows a positive sign in various
management parameters.
Hence, Mergers and Acquisitions comes in all shapes and sizes, investors
need to consider the complex issues involved in mergers and acquisitions.
