Abstract

This paper explores what made Indian mergers and acquisitions successful following globalization’s beginning in the early 1990s. The study looks at over 100 corporate examples of acquiring companies from 2010 to 2020. The study examines the match between the strategies, cultures, integration methods and the influence of laws involved in a merger. The study also focuses on what drives corporate takeovers in India and how globalizations have affected the relevant laws. It also looks at the way companies handle new regulations and follow their main business plans. The study also explores other regions to show what makes their mergers different from and similar to those seen in developed economies. Learning about these things helps you plan better for business acquisitions and mergers in India in the future.
