Talks between Advent and Whirlpool India fall through after valuation gap
Advent’s discussions to acquire a stake in Whirlpool India collapsed over valuation differences, halting a potential $1 billion transaction involving the company’s consumer durables unit.
Negotiations between Advent International and Whirlpool India ended without agreement after failing to align on valuation terms for a potential $1 billion stake acquisition. The proposed deal would have valued the consumer durables business at roughly 8–10 times FY25 EBITDA of ₹800 crore. Sources indicated discussions tapered off by December 6, leaving future strategic options open for both parties.
