Hogan Lovells advises Worldline on sale of its India payment activities to BillDesk

Hogan Lovells advised Worldline in the proposed sale of its payment activities in India to Indian payments player BillDesk. The transaction contemplates the disposal of Worldline’s payment operations in India to BillDesk for an estimated equity value at closing of approximately €60 million. In parallel to the divestment, the parties will conclude a long-term technology and software agreement under which BillDesk will continue to operate Worldline’s advanced payment software on an ongoing basis. Worldline, which designs and operates leading digital payment and transactional solutions and supports more than one million businesses globally, reported €4.6 billion in revenue in 2024. The objective of the cession is to strengthen the Group’s financial profile, increase strategic flexibility and support the redeployment of capital toward Worldline’s core activities in Europe. Closing of the transaction is expected in the second half of 2026, subject to the completion of customary processes in accordance with applicable laws. Hogan Lovells represented client(s) Worldline with a team composed by: Xavier Doumen (partner, corporate), Christophe-Marc Juvanon (partner, corporate), Bob Zeller (counsel, corporate) and Michelle Li (senior associate, corporate); Mikael Salmela (partner, SOAR), Maïmouna Goudiaby (counsel, SOAR) and Charlotte Haddad (associate, SOAR).
