Growth Outlook
Strong — India's hotel pipeline is ~70,000 new branded keys through 2028 (Taj, ITC, Marriott, Lemon Tree, Radisson networks expanding). Wedding tourism, MICE, religious tourism (Ayodhya, Kashi), and luxury domestic travel are pulling occupancy and ADRs higher. Government's tourism push under PM-Vishwakarma + state tourism investments support multi-decade growth. Demand for trained GMs at 5-star and upscale segments structurally exceeds supply.
