In a related development, MindTree is about to acquire a domestic semiconductor design company in an all-cash deal. The target company is reported to employ around 200 people. It has a sales presence in the US and a delivery centre in India. MindTree has signed a non-binding term-sheet with this firm and due diligence is on. It expects the acquisition to add to its IC (integrated chip) design capability and will also bring in new customers. This will be MindTree’s third acquisition in its seven-year history. The company had earlier made two acquisitions, the software division of ASAP and its subsidiary in September 2004 and Linc Software Services in June 2005.
