    16 December 2016 the CornerOffice Tata-Mistry boardroom battle A compilation of key developments The Tata Group, India’s largest conglomerate group, has recently witnessed several differences of opinion among its top management. On October 24, 2016, Tata Sons announced the ouster of Mr Cyrus Mistry as its Chairman (though he remains a director on the board). Non- performance, attempting to gain control, and taking critical decisions without keeping Tata Sons’ board informed were cited as the reasons. On requisition from Tata Sons, various Tata Group companies have called for an EGM to evict Mr Mistry as a director. Institutional investors’ votes are likely to play a decisive role in the outcome of this resolution in some of the companies. We summarize the series of events /relevant information that investors might find handy for their decision making. Tata trusts have significant say in India’s largest group SHP of Tata Sons Ltd. The Tata Group, which includes among others, 26 listed entities accounting for ~7% of the BSE’s total market capitalization, is India’s largest conglomerate group. Tata Sons is the Group’s unlisted holding company. About 66% of Tata Sons’ equity capital is held by philanthropic trusts endowed by members of the Tata family. Tata trusts have the power to appoint one-third of Tata Sons’ directors. Any item that requires approval of Tata Sons’ board needs to be ratified by a majority of its trust- nominated directors. Further, Tata trusts have the power to nominate majority of members on the committee constituted for appointment/removal of the Chairman.

  • 108288 Master Thesis Online
    Copenhagen Business School Master Thesis 17.05.2016 Do Indian advanced market acquisitions from service and manufacturing firms create shareholder value? Author: Tim Niklas Palm MSc. Economics and Business Administration in International Business Copenhagen Business School STU incl. tables & figures: 170.827, pages 75 Supervisor: Aradhna Aggarwal Department of International Economics and Management Copenhagen Business School Abstract The liberalization in the 1990s and the resulting increased FDI activity allowed India to become the world’s fastest growing major economy in 2016. However, India’s emergence as a source of foreign direct investment outflows is impressive for its level of development. The sources are Indian firms that increasingly acquire firms in OECD countries and therefore leapfrog the conventional growth cycle. In this context, the understanding whether or why this inorganic mode of expansion creates value for the acquiring firms and the country as a whole is limited. This thesis argues that advanced market acquisitions allow to internalize resources that are time consuming in developing and also difficult to trade through transactions. Thus, they constitute a strategic path to value creation for the acquiring firm. Advanced product and factor markets and a developed institutional environment ensure a high quality of the resource and therefore allow for high synergies for firms from resource poor developing countries. In essence, service and manufacturing firms are driving these outward flows from India. I argue that domestically demand serving manufacturing firms create more value than export oriented service firms as they entered the global market on a later stage and have a larger potential to upgrade their capabilities.
