The buyback is proposed to be undertaken from the shareholders of the company on a proportionate basis through the tender-offer route, the company said in a notice to the stock exchanges.

Further, it reflects exceptional deal-related expenses incurred by Majesco US (including buyer-related costs), the statement added.
