Lehman likely to shutdown back office

Lehman is expected to close its captive unit in Mumbai by the end of this month. The unit’s 1,200 employees, who work on equity research and analytics support for the mergers and acquisitions business, have been orally told to quit by September-end. They have also been informed that they will be paid only for this month, which will be treated as a severance package.
