Following the transaction, Naspers will own 5.6% of Ctrip’s outstanding ordinary shares, and Ctrip and the third-party investment entity will own ordinary shares and class B shares of MMT representing approximately 49.0% and 4.0% of MakeMyTrip’s total voting rights, respectively.

“We are grateful for the unstinting support Naspers has provided us over the last couple of years. We have worked with Ctrip in the past years and are excited to take this partnership to the next level. We will leverage this investment to benefit from the tremendous growth potential in travel and tourism between our two countries.” said Deep Kalra, Chairman and Group CEO of MakeMyTrip.

We look forward to working with the Ctrip team to continue to take our business to the next level,” said Rajesh Magow, Co-founder and CEO-India of MakeMyTrip.

“MakeMyTrip has transformed travel in India and beyond since 2000. The agreement we have announced today is a significant step in the growth ambitions of both MakeMyTrip and Ctrip and we believe continuing to support them as a shareholder will create additional value for Naspers and our shareholders,” said Bob van Dijk, CEO, Naspers.

“Over the past years we have witnessed the great achievements of MakeMyTrip, and we are confident that MakeMyTrip will extend its success in the future,” said James Liang, Co-founder and Executive Chairman of Ctrip.
