Online travel firm MakeMyTrip Tuesday said it has acquired a majority stake in Mumbai-based corporate travel management firm Quest2Travel.Com for an undisclosed amount.

Commenting on the development, MakeMyTrip Founder and Group CEO Deep Kalra said: "This investment will help us extend our service offerings to large corporates for their travel requirements while helping Quest2Travel benefit from the travel expertise and depth of supplier relationships that MakeMyTrip has forged over the years".
MakeMyTrip has historically focused on providing travel solutions for retail customers and with this investment, it is making a decisive foray into providing travel solutions for corporate customers as well, Kalra added.
