LOGIC
INTERNAL LOGIC
Expansion in the area of their core competencies merged and took over companies basically in three fields of their core expertise to best harness its globally acquired expertise and its local capabilities. Better balance among the businesses. Take over route rather than Start up route as it would reduce gestation caused during initial setups and would save time and help in faster business expansion. Merged two companies of the group to exploit synergy. Advantageous to operate through one mega company with clearly demarcated streams of businesses/SBUs. Acquiring 51% or more equity in each of its companies so that ownership and control was made easy.
LOGIC
EXTERNAL LOGIC
Market saturation in developed countries. Globalization of Indian economy which helped in fast merger and takeovers. Reduce competition in the FMCG sector in India. Joint venture with Lakme provided a ready made distribution network and marketing facilities. Present market size and the likely growth in the next few years in the Indian market. Better spread in the business and quantum leap in market shares.
