Abstract :

Mergers & Acquisition have become very popular throughout the world in the recent times. This has become popular due to globalization, liberalization, technological developments & intensely competitive business environment. The Indian economic reform since 1991 has opened up a whole lot of challenges both in the domestic and international spheresit is an indispensable strategic tool for expanding product portfolios, entering into new market, acquiring new technologies and building new generation organization with power & resources to compete on global basis. The post–merger performance of the firms could be measured in several ways. One way to measure the performance is to monitor the share prices after the merger deal is struck, that is "event studies" which assumes that stock markets are efficient (Franks & Harris, 1989. Studies relating to profitability after M&A’s may not, therefore, be sufficient to evaluate the corporate performance. It is, therefore, useful to examine the relative efficiency of the firms after M&A’s.
