This study attempts to explore the trend of M&As by IT companies having headquarters in India. The results reveal that trend across the time is not unidirectional. Global recession of 2008 significantly affected the number of deals. It has more severe impact on international deals than on domestic deals. The study also revealed that companies engaged in more international deals than the domestic deals with USA alone, accounting for 56 percent of international deals. For domestic M&As, it has been found that the maximum number of target companies was located in Bengaluru, whereas the maximum number of acquirer companies was from Mumbai. Looking at the regional distribution of M&As, the study revealed that South India had dominant position followed by West, North and East India, respectively. This distribution of inorganic investment (through M&A) is very similar to the agglomeration of IT hubs and concentration of technical institutions in India. Another revealing finding of the study that majority of acquirer and target companies (42%) had headquarters in the same city, indicating that firms preferred deal partners in the same city.

For example, previous studies indicate that the IT/ITES industry in India advanced rapidly because of the availability of a large, well educated, high quality, English speaking workforce [1,9,10]. Similarly, the study by Carayannis & Sagi [7] highlights that one of the key factors contributing to the success of the IT/ITES industry is the possession of a highly-skilled worked force.…”

“…However, Harbi et al [8] argue that R&D activities do not determine the success of the IT/ITES industry but it promotes innovation in the industry. However, the study by Bhattacharjee & Chakrabarti [10] noted that, recently there have been increasing investments in R&D in India that contribute to the growth of the IT/ITES industry.…”
