Each of these companies will have a CEO, CFO and HR head, and will manage its own profit and loss account, said L&T’s Whole time Directorand President J P Nayak while making a presentation on restructuring. Power, hydrocarbon, machinery and products, switchgear, heavy engineering, infrastructure, building and factories, metals and minerals and electrical businesses make up the nine companies, adds report. c The restructuring process is being advised by Bain & Co and Mckinsey. The move aims to streamline the complex structure of the company that has evolved as a result of its numerous business interests over the years.
