Tata Motors Completes Iveco Acquisition, Expanding Global Commercial Vehicle Business
Tata Motors has completed its acquisition of Italian truckmaker Iveco after a 15-month process marked by shareholder resistance and regulatory delays. The deal, valued at about $4.5 billion, combines two commercial vehicle businesses with annual sales exceeding 540,000 units and expands Tata Motors' global footprint, especially in Europe and the Americas. Despite initial opposition from some investors over the offer price, Tata Motors secured nearly 88% of shares tendered, enabling full ownership and planned delisting of Iveco.
