Post-merger, all ATSPL employees shall be absorbed by ASSPL with no loss of service or benefits, said the NCLT notification
The merger would help Amazon streamline the business operations of the two companies and reduce legal and tax compliance.
The Bengaluru bench of National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) has approved the merger of Amazon India’s logistics and transport arm Amazon Transportation Services Pvt Ltd (ATSPL) with its marketplace unit Amazon Seller Services Pvt Ltd (ASSPL).
