Financial Performance and Diversification Strategy of Indian Business Groups
Abridged abstract

The industrial scenario in India has been, and is, dominated by business houses. There is a gap in empirical research on the relation between diversification and performance of Indian business groups. This dissertation examines that relationship, its determinants, and its implications for corporate strategy and financial performance.
