The Transition Services Agreement (TSA) is a crucial document in corporate transactions under Indian law, typically executed following mergers, acquisitions, or divestitures. It enables business continuity by allowing one company to provide essential services to another during a transitional period. The agreement comprehensively addresses service scope, performance standards, costs, governance, data protection, and exit mechanisms, while ensuring compliance with Indian legal requirements. TSAs are particularly important in complex transactions where immediate separation of all business functions is not feasible, providing a structured framework for temporary service arrangements while the recipient company establishes independent operations.
