OnMobile CEO and MD Arvind Rao told CNBC TV18 that the company is looking at two more overseas acquisitions over the next 12-18 months, but they will do acquisitions “very carefully and conservatively”. They’re targeting companies with product IP. He expects a topline growth of 60-65 percent. They plan to expand their R&D team and “crank out more products faster and better”. He says that demand for voice-portal content is huge and relatively inelastic. Watch the video here.
