How this page is counted

A deal is listed when StopDown reported an acquisition, a majority or full buyout, a merger or a completed stake purchase involving an Indian startup or a startup bought by an Indian company. Talks, bids and plans are left out until they are signed. A deal reported twice (announced, then completed) appears once, at its latest story. Acquirer and target are read from the headline where it names both; amounts are as reported, converted at a fixed rate where only rupees were given. Every row links to the story, which links to the articles it was written from. Full method →
