"Buy-ins more likely than buyouts in India"

"Management buy-ins rather than buyouts are more viable in India. (In a buy-in, a private equity investor typically brings in a new set of managers. In a buyout, the investor backs the purchase of a company by the existing management.) Senior managers here still do not think of taking over their employer’s business," says Nainesh Jaisingh, head of StanChart Private Equity in India, has an interview to Businessworld.
