HTMT Global Solutions, has allocated $100-million for BPO company acquisitions in the domestic and international markets.

MUMBAI: Hinduja group company and outsourcing major, HTMT Global Solutions, has allocated $100-million for BPO company acquisitions in the domestic and international markets, a top company official said.

"We are looking at acquisition of BPO companies and have earmarked a $100-million for the purpose. But we are not in a rush," HTMT's Chairman, Ramkrishan P Hinduja, said at the company's annual general meeting held here.

The company has a merger and acquisitions division which would handle acquisitions, he said.

"We have an M&A division which looks for opportunities best suited for the group," he said.

The company may seal a few deals in this financial year, Hinduja said, without, however, revealing further details.

HTMT is a key provider of relationship management solutions, business process outsourcing, outsourced call centre sales/service support and market research.

Describing zibika as a social medium or network on personal finance, Doraiswami said "I am trying to build up a community like Orkut where users can connect with friends and share information on personal finance."

"We also provide EMI-based search results," he said, adding "besides, users can compare products and then pick up the one which suits them the best."
