• The acquiring business must assess the market value of the target company.
• Examining the object clause in the memorandums of association for both companies is the first step in mergers and acquisitions in India. It is to determine whether companies have the right to oppose to a merger or not.
• To ensure confidentiality, both parties may sign a non-disclosure agreement.
• The fourth step is to alert the stock exchange authority about the proposed merger and purchase of the companies. This comes after the inspection. Companies must submit all copies of the resolution process, notices, and orders to the stock exchange authority within the allotted time during this period.
• After gaining approval from the boards of directors of both companies, the advocate will draft the merger proposal. The resolution to designate key managerial personnel as Authorized Representatives will be approved by the Board of the Director.
• After the Board of Directors have approved the draft that the advocate has prepared, the merger businesses must file an application with the honourable high court of the state where the company's headquarters is located.
• Merger firms must give all shareholders and creditors of the companies a 21-day notice before the scheduled meeting. The notification must also be published in two major national newspapers, one of which must be in the state's native tongue and the other must be in English.
• After the Hon'ble High Court has heard the application and granted it, the parties must submit a certified copy of the order to the Registrar of the Companies within the time frame set by the High Court.
• The merging company must be advised of the assets and liabilities of both entities.
• The high court's ruling and the filing of the order with the ROC, the combined firms become separate legal entities. After being listed on a stock exchange, the newly created legal entity is now able to issue shares and debentures.
