Baring Private Equity Asia had finalized its purchase of a 41.47% ownership stake of Hexaware Technologies. Baring acquired the stake from GA Global Investment, a promoter of the India-based outsourcing firm.

The terms of the share purchase agreement stated that Baring would be paying INR 126 each for every Hexaware share.

A regulatory filing revealed that the buyout was advised by Morgan Stanley, with Credit Suisse acting as co-advisor.
