Amalgamation is the combination of one or more companies into a new entity. An amalgamation is distinct from a merger because neither of the combining companies survives as a legal entity; a completely new entity is formed to house the combined assets and liabilities of both companies. An amalgamation is an arrangement in which: I. The assets / liabilities of two or more firms become vested in another firm. II. As a legal process, it involves joining of two or more firms to form a new entity or absorption of one/ more firms with another. III.
