With a booming domestic market, Indian M&As are on the ascendant

Imagine if Alexander the Great was alive today and fighting the battle for global dominance in the corporate arena. He would have certainly been surprised to see an India very different from his time, an India that’s much more aggressive and much more lethal. The insatiable drive for exponential growth has made Indian corporate houses go all across the world to own companies and enter new markets. Not only has the number of deals gone up, but also the size of these deals. In cross border M&A deals, India witnessed 85 outbound deals (Indian companies acquiring international business), as against 34 inbound deals in the first half of 2006. Riding the upbeat market mania and an ever increasing risk taking appetite, almost all the major Indian companies have embarked on a world expedition with all guns blazing.

India Inc. saw deals worth $14.3 billion in January to June 2006, of which $10.8 billion worth of deals were through M&As, and $3.5 billion by way of private equity. For the entire 2005, the figure stood at $18.2 billion. In the first half of 2006, M&As contributed 224 deals and private equity an impressive 134, to add to the total tally of 358. In terms of value, telecom retained its leadership with 21% of M&A deal value, followed by oil & gas at 17.5%, but in terms of number of deals, IT & ITeS lead the way with a total of 46 deals. These numbers indicate both India’s emergence as an important investment destination and the quest of India Inc. to set its footprints abroad.
