A situation where a company overtakes the control of another company is called take over. A takeover occurs when one company makes a bid to gain ownership of or purchase another, often by purchasing a majority stake in the target company. The company making the bid is the acquirer in the takeover process while the company that it wishes to take control of is called the target. Takeovers for a smaller one are usually conducted by a larger corporation. They can be voluntary, which means they are the product of a joint agreement between the two companies. In other situations, they may be rejected, in which case, without his knowledge, the larger organization goes after the target.

In friendly takeover promoters of Target Company voluntarily sell off their shares to the acquirer at an attractive price offered by acquirer and promoters quit from their own company. In this promoter of the target, company gifts away from the control and ownership to the acquirer at an attractive price. Some of the friendly takeovers like Idea did a friendly takeover of Spice, Daiichi sankyo did a takeover of Ranbaxy
