Book excerpt: This paper presents an investigation into the relationship between the announcement of mergers and acquisition and the existence of positive abnormal returns for shares of these firms. The aim of this project is to examine the impact of Merger and Acquisition on the stock prices of Indian Banks by using the Event Study Methodology; it is one of the most frequently used tools in financial research. The objective of Event Study is to assess whether there are any abnormal or excess returns earned by security holders accompanying specific events (e.g. merger announcements, earnings announcements, stock splits), where an abnormal return is the difference between observed return and appropriate return by stock market during a particularly defined event window.In order to analyse the effect of announcement of bank's Merger and Acquisition on stock price, we have considered four cases of Mergers in banking sector. In this study, we tested our results by analysing the daily return of the event windows and compare with average pe-riod return of security. By accepting the abnormal return as a benefit of the acquisition and investors of Acquirer Company received profit in term of share value appraisal. We observed that acquirer got benefit by the acquisition deals and it reflect through the excess return over the normal return of bank's share prices. In last 10 to 15 years banking industry passed through different scenario and to compete in this scenario some banks acquired other banks to improve their own market cap and financial conditions with expanding market by acquisition. The purpose of this study is to figure out the effect of the acquisition on the share capitalization value of the Acquirer Company and abnormal return due to the acquisition. This paper is based upon the secondary data analysis of the acquirer company share prices movements in respect of the market index price movements.
