Have been apart but still swedish company's of origin, except the cars devision sold out long ago already. No transfer of technology with the product, no sell. Every fighter producer has/is selling the technology with it in the package. Saab's selling but nobody's buying. The Greens or nationalists are pushing for some 10 advanced variants but news abound that if there are no sales the days are numbered. That's the automobile devision and fighter jet devision, now on to the commercial aviation devision...
Selling to India or a cooperation? They are building/going to build a "new" aircraft but with selling of the technology or else it would just design and build them themselves and fly them over. Investments are also say in the company. Just like Airbus has to build it's aircraft in China, it goes along with the (unwanted?) transfer of technology so that in time they can build them themselves. They have the cheaper labour, the means/ infrastructure and at last the technology to do it.
