CarTrade in Talks to Acquire CarDekho and BikeDekho
Imagine three companies that help people buy and sell cars online: CarTrade, CarDekho, and BikeDekho.
CarTrade is talking about possibly buying the parts of CarDekho and BikeDekho that list cars for sale.
They are not talking about buying the parts of those companies that handle loans or insurance.
It's just early talks, and no final deal has been made yet.
This is something CarTrade is exploring to help their company grow.
CarTrade is reportedly in discussions to acquire CarDekho and BikeDekho in India.
The potential acquisition focuses solely on the automotive classifieds segments of CarDekho and BikeDekho.
Discussions exclude financing, insurance, and other non-automotive businesses of the target companies.
CarTrade stated that these discussions are part of its strategic growth evaluation.
There is currently no binding or definitive agreement in place for the transaction.
