Objectives & Agenda :
In order to streamline the process of merger or amalgamation, Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) has brought in simplified procedures to enable the same. Apart from the regular provisions stipulated for merger or amalgamation of Companies under Section 232 of the Act, for certain companies the process has been even more relaxed. This process is popularly termed as Fast Track Merger and is covered under Section 233 of the Act read with Rules made there under. Also, provisions are enshrined in the Act for merger or amalgamation of Company with Foreign Company which is otherwise called as Cross Border Merger.
