Emcure bought the remaining 12.05% of Gennova, taking full control. Samit Mehta takes over as CEO. Former CEO Sanjay Singh exited after divesting the mRNA unit.
Emcure Pharmaceuticals bought the remaining 12.05% stake in Gennova Biopharmaceuticals, taking full ownership of the vaccine and biologics subsidiary. The deal simplifies the corporate structure and gives Emcure direct control over Gennova's strategic direction, the company said.
Samit Mehta will lead Gennova through its next phase. The subsidiary will keep using its biomanufacturing platforms to develop new products. Former CEO Sanjay Singh has exited, selling his stake and divesting Gennova's mRNA business separately.
The acquisition removes a minority shareholder layer that complicated decision-making at Gennova, which had operated as a separate entity within the Emcure group. Full ownership lets Emcure allocate capital and resources to Gennova without negotiation with outside holders.
Gennova's pipeline includes vaccines and biologics targeting infectious diseases. The mRNA divestiture signals a narrower focus on protein-based biologics and existing platform technologies. Emcure did not disclose the financial terms of the stake purchase.
