About Emmar Family Offices
The Narayanan family's single family office traces its wealth to Emmar Machine Tools, founded in 1976 by M.R. Narayanan and Nirmala Narayanan. The company became one of India's pioneers in introducing European automation technology for high-production solutions to the Indian Railways, Defence, R&D, Steel, Power and Energy industries. The enterprise was later restructured into a private single family office to manage the family's wealth, businesses, investments and assets, a change initiated by second-generation member Madabushi Narayanan Gosakan. Based in Chennai, India, with a presence extending to Singapore, the office is a portfolio and capital markets investor focused on both the equity and debt capital markets, solely managing the family trust and its interests across a multi-strategy approach. Its assets are put by third-party estimate at roughly $100M.
