The agreement is also part of a broader 360-degree partnership with Randstad, which includes a five-year IT services partnership for Randstad’s India Global Capability Center and a strategic talent management collaboration.

Venu Lambu, CEO and Managing Director of LTM, said the proposed agreement aligns with the company’s long-term strategy to build a diversified and resilient business portfolio while strengthening its ability to deliver compliant and domain-driven AI services in strategic markets.

The acquisition will be executed through LTIMindtree UK Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of LTM, subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.

As per the company’s disclosure, the proposed transaction is expected to be completed by the third quarter of FY27. The deal involves a cash consideration with an enterprise valuation of up to €160 million on a cash-free, debt-free basis, subject to customary closing adjustments.

The target entities reported consolidated revenue of €609 million in CY2023, €541 million in CY2024, and €469 million in CY2025.
