Abstract
The growing importance of M&A has coincided with a spurt in concerns over Corporate Governance issues. However, there has been little analysis of the clash between the two. In this essay, Mr. Varottil studies the anatomy of an M&A transaction through the lens of governance mechanisms, noting how pulls and pressures within a company affect the viability of a deal. He notes that 'mature and sophisticated' structures can minimize the risk of an M&A transaction. Further, he considers whether the existing legal framework in India allays fears of misgovernance, and suggests that there are several aspects that require reconsideration from both the regulators and the corporate sector.
