15 TAKEOVER TRACK Acquisitions to play a key role in growth Over the past decade, India s top software companies have acquired foreign and domestic firms to increase their local presence in the US and Europe, their main markets, or to acquire employees with a specific skill set or strengthen their capability in a particular sector Most acquisitions by Indian IT companies have not been very expensive on a multiples basis and have been targeted at penetrating new geographies, especially Europe Another driver of acquisitions by Indian IT firms is the large pile of cash that many IT companies have been sitting on. At the end of 2012, Tier 1 Indian IT providers such as Wipro, Infosys and TCS were sitting on billions of dollars each. With that much cash and an improving macroeconomic environment, these firms will continue to spend some of their reserves to buy companies that drive growth as a way of delivering more value to their shareholders For instance TCS s recently announced the acquisition of French technology services company, Alti SA, for $97 million (Rs. 530 Cr.) which is expected to provide TCS with an extra edge in the European market. Through the acquisition TCS has brought in 1,200 employees and reputed clients such as Banque De France( French Central Bank), BNP Paribas, Credit Agricole, and Societe Generale among its clients in banking sector besides others such as Air France, L'Oreal and telecom company Orange We will continue to see a rising wave of M&A in FY in the sector both on the domestic and overseas front 15
