Top Dogs buy out Alcatel's Indian arm
Economic Times, New Delhi, 9 December 2002

In a unique case of local management buyout of a MNC's Indian Subsidiary, the $25-billion French telecom major Alcatel's division, Alcatel Business Systems, has been brought out in India by the senior Indian managemnt. Alcatel Business Systems India Pvt. Ltd., one of the many Alcatel divisions that have operations in India, was a 100% arm of Alcatel Business Systems in France. Post-buyout, however, Alcatel doesn't hold any stake in the unit, which has been renamed as ABS India Pvt. Ltd. 

The senior management, which includes MD V Pradeep, director(sales and marketing), Sunil Arora and Director (finance) Parswanath, now own the company. Both FIPB and RBI approvals have been obtained for the deal. Alcatel Business Systems global turnover is around $5 billion. The Indian division of Alcatel Business systems has a turnover of Rs 45 crore. 

The whole process of buyout was hand-held and supported by Alcatel's exclusive partner in various networking equipment like LAN switches, WAN equipment and EPABX systems. However, the company is free to deal with other companies products in non-competing areas. 

The decision of the local management to buy out the Alcatel parent came when Alcatel decided that it was going to prune back the international arms of its business solutions division. 

In Europe, for instance, Alcatel Business Systems has sold its 17 subsidiaries to one company, Platinum Equity. Says Alcatel Business Systems' Asian director Philippe Chadoin, " In the enterprise space, if you want to get market reach in different countries, one needs to hire a lot of people in the sales, pre-sales and service space, and that costs a lot of money. And so Alcatel Business Systems decided to hire business partners in various countries, rather than be stuck with Alcatel's own employees. In the case of business partners, we can change them after a period of time if we are not satisfied with their performance." 

Important Training at ABS

Given that the telephone continues to play a major role in the sales cycle, it is not surprising that your communications system is one of the most important assets your organisation has, after the people that it employs.

Technological developments that exist today can handle the most sophisticated telecommunication tasks, but without the right level of skills or knowledge, organisations may not realise the full potential of a chosen solution, where it is only as effective as the people that use it.

With this understanding, ABS India imparts quality, cost-effective training courses designed to help organisations not only adapt to changing environments, but also deliver greater returns from their investments in both people and communication systems.

ABS India also continues to support its innovative projects with training program opportunities provided for its personnel to acquire different visions, skills and technical knowledge. Thus, throughout the year, ABS India personnel are provided with the opportunity to participate in several training programs.
