Bharti Joins Tata, Mahindra, Welspun In UK Firm Acquisitions
Bharti Enterprises’ $4 billion acquisition of a 24.5% stake in BT Group, the UK’s largest broadband and mobile company, adds to a growing list of Indian companies making significant investments in the UK. This trend includes prominent Indian firms like Tata Group, Mahindra & Mahindra, and Welspun.
Tata Group’s global expansion began with its landmark purchase of Tetley Tea in 2000. Tata Steel’s acquisition of Corus Group in 2007 further cemented its international presence, followed by Tata Motors’ purchase of Jaguar Land Rover in 2008.
Welspun India Ltd also made headlines with its 2006 acquisition of Christy, a leading UK terry towel brand. More recently, Mahindra & Mahindra acquired BSA Company in 2008, and TVS Motor Company bought Norton Motorcycles in 2020.
These acquisitions reflect the growing influence of Indian firms on the global stage and their commitment to expanding their international footprint.
