    [abstract] => <p style="margin-left:5.0pt;">A sudden and sharp increase in mergers and acquisitions in India over the last two decades has attracted a great attention of scholars to understand the activity. This study brings forth some interesting recent patterns about the same. Using a much wider span period of 17 years&rsquo;, precisely from 1996 to 2012, it is shown that mergers are coming in waves. Further, they are not occurring randomly. Instead, the activity is concentrated in a few industries, and that too, in a few years within a given industry. These statistics imply that certain industry- specific time variant factors are significant in causing the substantial restructuring.</p>
