A study on M&A of Indian banking sector – strategic and financial implications
Introduction to Mergers and Acquisition
Merger is defined as the process in which one company acquires the assets as well as the liabilities of the
second company.The first one is survivor here while the the second one is the looser who looses his
corporate existence. Generally, the surviving company is the buyer, which retains its identity, and the
extinguished company is the seller
In India, mergers are called as amalgamations. The acquiring company, also called as the amalgamated
company or the merged company acquires the assets and liabilities of the target company . The
shareholders of the existing company get the shares of newly amalgamated company.
WHAT IS ACQUISITION?
Acquisition in general sense is acquiring the ownership in the property. In the context of business
combinations, an acquisition is the purchase by one company of a controlling interest in the share capital
of another existing company.
When an acquisition is forced or unwilling act, then it is called take over . A merger involves a
marriage of two or more banks. It is generally accepted that mergers promote synergies. The basic idea is
that the combined will create more value than the individual banks operating independently. Economist
refers to the phenomenon of the “2+2=5” effect brought about by synergy.
THE BRIEF OVERVIEW OF INDIAN BANKING SECTOR
In India, the Reserve Bank of India is considered to be the central bank of the country. RBI regulates the
operations of other banks and helps in managing the money supply of the economy. The Indian banking
system consists of two types of banks which are commercial banks and Co-operative banks. Commercial
banks play dominant role in the growth of Indian economy and accounts for more than 90 percent of the
total assets of the banking sector. Commercial banks are classified into two categories namely Scheduled
Commercial Banks and Nonscheduled Commercial Banks.. Based on the pattern of ownership,
scheduled commercial banks can also be classified into three broad cateogaries.

(1) Public Sector Banks which include
(a) State Bank of India and its associates
(b) Nationalized Banks
(2) Private Sector Banks comprise
(a) Indian private banks and
(b) Foreign Banks
(3) Regional Rural Banks
Indian Banking Sectors had started witnessing three major reforms which played a key role in reforming
the present situation of the Indian Banking system These reforms were Narishmam Committee I (1991),
Narishmam Committee II (1997) and Verma Committee (1999).Environment in which Indian Banking
sectors were operated witnessed a remarkable change due to these reforms.
The objectives of these reforms were to improve the current conditions of Indian Banking system and to
make them enhance there efficiency and promote a diversified and competitive financial sytem.Thus theoutcomes of these reforms were to consolidate the Indian banking sectors through merger and
acquisition. Technological progress and financial deregulation have played an important role in
accelerating the process of merger and acquisition in Indian banking industry.This technological
advancement had led to increase productivity and performance as a result the overall profit maximization
was there.Size and scale of production was increased to a distinct level.Due to these reasons Indian
banks became capable of facing globalization and thus can generate capital from foreign also.
Mergers and acquisitions in Indian banking sector have initiated through the recommendations of
Narasimham committee. The committee recommended that merger between banks and Development
Financial Institutions (DFI's) and Non Banking Financial Corporation's (NBFCs) no to seen as a mean of
bailing out weak banks. The committees also stressed, that the combined value of new bank will be
greater, than the combined value of merged banks, and have a "forced multiplier effect."

A study on M&A of Indian banking sector – strategic and financial implications
BANKING SECTOR DEVELOPMENTS IN INDIA
In todays competitive scenario, if we will see we can find out that Banking sector in India is currently
passing through an exciting and challenging phase. The reform measures that were initiated by policy
makers have brought about sweeping changes in this vital sector of the country's economy. They studied
the trends in important banking indicators for the 25-year period from 1980 to 2005. It is well
understood fact that the banking system is central to a nation’s economy. Banks perform various special
functions as they not only accept and deploy large amounts of uncollateralised public funds in a
fiduciary capacity, but also leverage such funds through credit creation. In India, prior to nationalisation,
banking was restricted mainly to the urban areas and neglected in the rural and semi-urban areas.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
The pace of bank mergers and acquisitions is increasing all over the world and it has given rise to an
extensive economic research. Today, there is quite an abundance literature available on the subject of
bank mergers. In literature, there has been number of studies conducted on the impact of mergers on the
efficiency of banks. There is voluminous literature on mergers and acquisitions in developed economies
like US but there is dearth of literature in developing economies like India and other Asian
countries. The literature suggests that there is mixed empirical evidence regarding the impact of mergers
and acquisitions on the efficiency and performance of banks.
Pardeep KAUR, Gian KAUR studied the cost efficiency of Indian commercial banks by using a non-
parametric Data Envelopment Analysis Technique. They also studied the impact of mergers and there
implications on the cost efficiency of those banks that have gone through the process of merger during
post liberalization period. The findings of their study also suggest that the cost efficiency of Indian
public sector banks were 73.4 % and for private sector banks were 76.3 %. There findings also suggested
that to some extent merger programme has been successful in Indian banking sector. It was suggested
that the Government and Policy makers should not promote merger between strong and distressed banks
as a way to promote the interest of the depositors of distressed banks, as it will have adverse effect upon
the asset quality of the stronger banks.

A study on M&A of Indian banking sector – strategic and financial implications
Dr. K.A. Goyal & Vijay Joshi
They basically explained what were the benefits of merger and acquisition to the Indian banking system.
They studied the merger of 17 banks in India. After analysis they found following benefits of merger to
all the participants
• Sick banks were found to get survived after merger.
• Merger and acquisition had enhanced branch network geographically.
• Merger and acquisition had led to development of larger customer base (rural reach).
• Increased market share.
• Attainment of infrastructure was greatly increased.
Dr Rohan Rai suggested that after the removal of entry barriers and a number of banking-sector reforms
have palyed an important role in making the entire banking activity to start hovering around the long-
awaited customer-centric approach. A large number of new economy private sector banks came into
existence because of these reforms in Indian banking system . Although being small in size they had
great enthusiasm and zeal to achieve inorganic growth to throw real challenge to monstrous public sector
banks. Small is of course beautiful but being big makes one powerful.
Jangaiah Paladi, Akyam Srujan stated that the global M&A scenario is witnessing new highs in terms of
value and volume of completed activity. By the end of 2005, world over 24,806 M&A deals worth a
combined value of US$2,059 billion were concluded. A significant rise in the number of deals has been
recorded in recent times. M&A deals in insurance sector have again gained momentum in 2005, and by
September 2005, 191 deals valued at US$ 32,688 million have been recorded. Though the numbers of deals
are lower compared to the previous year, the value of the deals is more than double.
Srinivasan R ,Gourav Chattopadhyay, Arvind Sharma suggested that like all business entities , banks
want safeguard against risks as well as exploit available opportunities indicated by existing and expected
trends. Deregulation has been the main driver, through three major routes - dismantling of interest rate
controls, removal of barriers between banks and other financial intermediaries, and lowering of entry
barriers. This article looks at some M&As that have happened post-2000 in India to understand the intent

(of the targets and the acquirers), resulting synergies (both operational and financial), modalities of the
deal, congruence of the process with the vision and goals of the involved banks, and the long term
implications of the merger.They explained the benefits and drawbacks of some key M&A deals 2000
onwards.
A. Vasudevan suggested that there is little empirical literature on the impact of mergers in banking in
India, but what there is supports the view that banks significantly improve their profit and operational
efficiencies following consolidation, that has happened both for reasons of financial strength and
efficiency. A. Vasudevan surveys the merger scene in the banking sector .
K. Ravichandran, Fauzias Mat-Nor, Rasidah Mohd-Said suggested that the banking sector of India is
considered as a booming sector and the soundness of the banking system has been vital for the
development of the country’s economy. The financial performance suggests that the banks are becoming
more focused on their retail activities (intermediation) and the main reasons for their merger is to scale
up their operations. A comprehensive study is undertaken to investigate the performance of those banks
three years before the merger took place and three years after the completion of the said merger. Also the
profitability of the firm is significantly affected giving a negative impact on the returns.They showedthat they have adopted CRAMEL (Capital Adequacy, Resources Raising Ability, Asset Quality,
Management Quality, Earnings Quality, Liquidity) model to assess efficiency and performance of the
Indian banking institutions.
Jay Mehta, Ram Kumar Kakani suggested the motives of merger and acquisition of Indian banking
sector.India is moving slowly from “large number of small banks” to “small number of large
banks”.They also compared the International merger and acquisition with Indian scene.They studied the
significant role of the state and the central bank in protecting customers interest’s vis-à-vis creating
players of International size. It is observed that the banking industry is moving from traditional savings-
cum-lending functions to other services as well such as Bank-assurance and securities trading. They
provided the holistic approach to compare the rationale behind M&A in India and the international
arena.

A study on M&A of Indian banking sector – strategic and financial implications
Dr.Murthy Pamarty
Merger and acquisition of Indian banking has occupied an important place amongst the personnel and
policy-makers of banking system in recent years, as a sequel to economic reforms to bring in equilibrium
sand stability in the banking industry.
The financial and strategic management aspect of merger is to be analyzed from several angles
and the study evaluated financial implications before and after mergers in the banking industry. Banking
is the most important component of the Indian financial system. Merger taking place in India are in line
with the trend of consolidation that has characterized the financial services industry and, in particular,
the banking industry. Hence the desire to grow quickly through mergers rather than through the slow and
tortuous path of normal expansion in business. Their study evaluated financial implications before and
after mergers in the banking industry. The first part of their study evaluates the implications of Mergers
and Acquisitions from the financial point of view. The second part of their study investigates the
adjustments of stock prices to the announcement of mergers/ acquisitions.They explained that there are
vairiety of reason to induce merger proposals. Some of them are Synergy, Tax considerations,
Economies of scale in operations, Diversification.
NEED OF STUDY
It is observed in literature that most of the work done on mergers and acquisition is based on financial &
accounting aspect like performance of banking institutions based on. The fastest way to mergers,
acquisitions, takeover etc, is the combination of firms. Indian government consistently has put forward
planned efforts to achieve higher economic growth. Mergers generate gains by improving resource
allocation rather than by reducing tax payments of increasing the market power of the combined firm.
While Income Tax Act 1961carries some incentives to the merged firms, Indian Companies 1956
provides the procedure for amalgamation. Merger taking place in India are in line with the trend of
consolidation that has characterized the financial services industry and, in particular, the banking
industry.
