The Hon'ble NCLT Chandigarh Bench has approved the merger of Cigniti Technologies Limited (Transferor Company) into Coforge Limited (Transferee Company) with appointed date April 01, 2025. Under the approved share exchange ratio, Cigniti shareholders will receive 1 equity share of Coforge (face value INR 2) for every 1 share held in Cigniti (face value INR 10). The Scheme received overwhelming stakeholder approval including 99.95% by value from Cigniti shareholders and 100% from Coforge shareholders. Coforge already held 54% stake in Cigniti acquired between October-December 2024 for approximately INR 10,239 million. The combined entity will have $2.5 billion revenue with $2 billion core of AI-led Engineering, Data and Cloud services.
Coforge shareholders should benefit from the successful integration, with Cigniti's EBITDA margins having already expanded from 11% to 19% in five quarters post-acquisition. Cigniti shareholders will receive Coforge shares as per the 1:1 exchange ratio once the scheme becomes effective and listing approvals are obtained.
