Leepsa, N. M. & Mishra, C. S., 2014. Return from Indian Acquisitions: Does Deal Size Matter?
Co-author: Dr. Chandra Sekhar Mishra, VGSoM, IIT Kharagpur


Mergers and acquisitions are the corporate growth strategy that has grown in recent years. The performance of companies in post-acquisition period is influenced by various factors; one of the factors which remain explored is deal value. This paper attempts to investigate the post-acquisition performance of manufacturing companies in India based on their deal size-small and large deal size. Performance is evaluated on profitability parameters (return on capital employed, return on net worth, return on assets) of the company in pre and post-acquisition three years using paired t-test and Wilcoxon signed rank test. It is found that for the variable ROApost12 and ROApost123, the post-acquisition performance is positive for large deals while negative for small deals. There is no difference in ROApost1 performance in pre and post-acquisition performance in case of small deals while negative performance in ROApre1 in the post-acquisition first year. For the rest variables, ROCE and RONW, the large and small deals perform in a similar manner, but the results of large deals are more significant than small deals.

It rubs itself on the rough surface again and again until it burns to ignite the light. The first lesson is that if you want to get something from life, you have bet ready to rub yourself to difficult situations of life. You should be ready to face the hurdles of life. The second lesson is that just like the match stick burns itself to light candles and lamps, if you have something never hesitate to share with others if the person is in need of it. If you have small amount of knowledge share it to others who may come out with new knowledge for the benefit of all. When life of the match stick is for few seconds but by burning itself it lights other big objects which removes the darkness around you. Same way in every big sculpture there are small hands.
