The deal value was $12.1 billion. • Tata Steel became world’s fifth largest steel producer following this deal. • The acquisition of Corus by Tata Steel has many synergistic benefits • Although Tata Steel Group has succeeded in its efforts of integrating with Corus but, it has paid a very high price for the acquisition. • Also, the synergistic advantages that were foreseen after the deal have not been fruitful up to expectations till date. Further, the margins that were supposed to increase have gone down even after 4 years of the deal. • So far, Tata Steel still has to wait for few more years for the deal to be profitable if everything goes well.

Editor's Notes
- #6 while that of Tata Steel requires 38,000 employees
- #15 TATA To tap European mature market Cost of acquisition is lower than setting up green field plant and marketing and distribution channel. Tata manufactures low value long and fast steel products while Corus produced high value stripped products Acquisition would help Tata to feature in top 10 players in the world. Technology benefit Economies of scale Corus held a number of patents and R&D facilities CORUS Saturated market of Europe To extend its global reach through Tata To get access to low cost Indian Ore reserves Decline in market share and profit Total debt of Corus was 1.6 Bn GBP Facilities were old with high cost of production
