    This document discusses two forms of merger or amalgamation: merger through absorption and merger through consolidation. Merger through absorption involves combining two or more companies into an existing company, with all but one losing their identity. Merger through consolidation combines two or more companies into a new company. Both result in the combining of companies, with absorption maintaining one existing company and consolidation forming an entirely new combined company.

    Merger or amalgamation may take two forms:

    Merger through absorption. Merger through consolidation

    Merger through absorption


    An absorption is a combination of two or more companies into an existing company. All companies except one lose their identity in a merger through absorption. example : Reliance Petroleum by Reliance industries.

    Merger through consolidation


    A consolidation is a combination of two or more companies into a new company. In a narrow sense, the terms, amalgamation and consolidation are sometimes used interchangeably. An example of consolidation is the merger or amalgamation of Hindustan Computers Ltd., Hindustan Instruments Ltd. and Indian Reprographics Ltd.
