BSE-SME listed Bangalore based market research firm, Majestic Research Services and Solutions Ltd (MRSS) acquired the remaining stake of 30 per cent in its subsidiary company Emtee Research and Consultants Pvt Ltd and is expecting a return on its investment (ROI) of at least 36 per cent.

“I am highly confident in our teams’ ability to drive very significant levels of revenue and EBITDA growth in Emtee over the coming months”, Chairman of MRSS Raj Sharma told SMEpost.com.

Majestic had a stake of 70 per cent in Emtee, a digital marketing research firm. It bought the remaining 30 per cent of Emtee recently thus making Emtee a wholly owned subsidiary of Majestic MRSS.

As Emtee’s technology works on retail store levels, MRSS is expecting to leverage Emtee’s technology in FMCG vertical.

MRSS not only works on FMCG vertical, but also Automobile, ICT, Pharma, BFSI, and Media.

Commenting about the need of acquiring 100 per cent stake in Emtee, Sharma said, “In order to grow this business to its potential, we felt the need of flexibility of full ownership”.
