The basis of this study is a survey which was conducted across distinct groups of industries which belong to a range of industrial firms. In all, the survey questionnaires were distributed to 300 respondents to gather the pertinent data. The study found that aspects like the respondents perceived self efficacy and facilitating conditions showed significant and positive effect on adoption of m-marketing by industrial firms.
