Big News:

L&T Infotech and Mindtree To Merge To Build $22 Billion Entity

Larsen and Toubro Ltd, an Indian Multinational Conglomerate merged two of its publicly traded software firms. In 2019, Larsen took ownership of Mindtree. the boards of Mindtree Ltd. and Larsen & Toubro Infotech Ltd., two software divisions controlled by the Mumbai-based engineering giant, might explore share swap ratios for the merger as soon as next week, although the information isn't public. 

The conglomerate has a 61% share in the firm, which is valued at $8.3 billion, and a 74% stake in L&T Infotech, which is valued at $13.6 billion.

The two companies have nothing in common in terms of operations or clientele, so a merger would provide them with more pricing power and cheaper expenses. The merger is still being discussed, and the idea might be postponed or fall apart.

The business intends to use Rs 240 crore of the net proceeds from the new issuance to meet working capital requirements, with the remaining funds going to general corporate purposes.
