Cambridge Scholars Publishing Emerging Challenges in Mergers and Acquisitions

Product Description Mergers and acquisitions have gained a significant position in the corporate landscape in India. While this is so, the law relating to this field is still at its nascent stage, facing several emerging challenges. This collection of papers, selected pursuant to the NLIU Trilegal Summit on Mergers and Acquisitions, 2018, highlights some of these challenges, bringing to the fore the inter-relationship between mergers and acquisitions and other areas such as anti-trust, taxation, foreign direct investment, and insolvency. An endeavour of National Law Institute University, Bhopal, India, this work serves as a guide to both students and practitioners working in the area of mergers and acquisitions at a time when India is being looked at as a favourable investment destination.
