Thank you for getting in touch with us for the answer of your query. When we talk about the situation of two companies, burnt is not the suitable word. Swallowed is sometimes used in such phrases, but here it does not make any sense and digested is also not making any sense. So, the drowned is the suitable word in this phrase. Every year many small companies get drowned up by large multinationals. I hope this answer will be helpful for you.

The correct answer in this case is drowned.

When large multinationals spring into action, the small ones are hardly noticed and they are most of the time forced to wind up. This is similar to the concept of getting drowned in the sea or any other water body. In both cases, it denotes the end.
