My View on LTI & Mindtree Merger
Mergers bring in synergies and operating efficiencies. Cross selling opportunities emerge leading to increase in top line over a period of time. The same advantages would emerge in the case of this merger also. But, another way of looking at it is that smaller organisations are more agile. They can adapt to changes more quickly. They are focussed and offer specialised services. They have the potential to grow faster. So, if you are an investor in any of these 2 companies, ask yourself whether you are a conservative investor or an aggressive investor. Conservative investors should stick to the merged entity as the merged entity will be more stable and would be able to offer the entire basket of services to its clients. Aggressive investors can consider moving to some other IT company which is smaller in size and which can grow faster. If you are unable to decide, then seek professional guidance. (This is my view of looking at things. There may be differing opinions from more learned people than me)
