Mergers & Acquisition have become very popular throughout the world in
the recent times. This has become popular due to globalization,
liberalization, technological developments & intensely competitive
business environment. Mergers and acquisition are a big part of corporate
finance world. This process is extensively used for restructuring the
business organization. In India, the concept of mergers and acquisition
was initiated by the government bodies. The Indian economic reform since
1991 has opened up a whole lot of challenges both in the domestic and
international spheres. The increased competition in the global market has
prompted the Indian companies to go for mergers and acquisitions as an
important strategic choice. The trends of mergers and acquisitions in India
have changed over the years. The immediate effects of the mergers and
acquisitions have also been diverse across the various sectors of the
Indian economy.
In a merger, two companies come together and create a new entity. There
are mergers between equals and unequals. But, In general there are
mergers of equals rather than mergers of unequals.
There is also failure of M&A when purchasers plans & strategies are not
clear to the employees of the acquired firm.
Merger & Acquisition helps a Company to grow in a better way but it has a
great impact on the employees working in a company & on working
conditions. The employees of the companies merging and acquiring are
mostly affected by M&A. Due to this reason, there is mostly failure of
M&A. To break the mindset of people working in companies undergoing
M&A and to convince them that merger is for common good & will help
them in their growth is normally an uphill task.

6. Employees are the main victims when M & A takes place. They
may be hurting themselves by trying to cope with new changes.
When they realize that their potential for future growth within
the organization dwindles, they often become withdrawn and
frustrated which can affect productivity of the company
severely.
7. M&A affects the CEOs of the company because they are the
most creative and talented people within the organization. The
resultant loss of control devastates these individuals. The stress
level experienced by these executives often travels through the
chain of command, affecting subordinates as well.
12. Each company has its own set of values which may conflict with
those of acquired company. The employees may not be able to
accommodate themselves in new culture and thus may lead to
cultural shock. Inability to adapt to new culture increases stress
level among employees and results in low job performance. The
need therefore is to follow structured approach in dealing with
cultural differences.
Loss of identity.
Lack of information & anxiety.
Talent is lost.

CONCLUSION
Thus in nut shell we can say that M&A have become common in our
countrys business set up. There is a tremendous need for people to grow
and become global players expanding their business spheres.
