History

In 1986, Mahindra & Mahindra started a 60:40 joint venture technology services outsourcing firm with British Telecom named Mahindra British Telecom (MBT). In 2000, British Telecom committed business of at least £105 million over three years; as a consideration, British Telecom's stake in MBT increased to 43%.2 MBT primarily served the telecommunications industry in its early years, with British Telecom as its largest client.3

In 2006, MBT was renamed as Tech Mahindra,4 and it became a public company via an initial public offering.5 In December 2010, British Telecom sold 5.5% of its stake in Tech Mahindra to Mahindra & Mahindra for ₹451 crore.6 In August 2012, British Telecom sold 14.1% of its stake to institutional investors for about ₹1,395 crore. In December 2012, British Telecom sold its remaining 9.1% stake to institutional investors for ₹1,011.4 crore. This sale marked the exit of British Telecom from Tech Mahindra.7
