The Hotel industry is a part of the Travel and Tourism industry in India. Average Room Rate (ARR) and Revenue per Available Room (RevPAR) are the key performance indicators for the Hotel industry to measure business expansion and manage hotels.
The Hotel industry can be segmented into branded or traditional hotels, independent/unbranded hotels, new-age hotel chains, and alternate accommodations. The independent/unbranded segment accounts for around 70% of the total available hotel rooms. And the second largest segment is alternate accommodations.
It is expected that the hotel industry will expand at a good rate since India will be hosting the ICC Men's World Cup in 2023. It has been assumed that this event would increase foreign tourists' footfall in the country. The Hotel industry is highly dependent on the tourism sector for its business. Therefore, the Ministry of Tourism has undertaken several schemes like PRASHAD (Pilgrimage Rejuvenation and Spiritual, Heritage Augmentation Drive) and SWADESH DARSHAN (Integrated Development of Tourist Circuits around Specific Themes).
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in subsequent travel restrictions and nationwide lockdowns. The domestic hospitality industry has been one of the worst-hit sectors by this pandemic. In a report, ICRA said it expects the industry to go down by 65% in the FY 2021, with massive operating and net losses, wiping out the cumulative profits of the past 4 years. However, a good demand recovery is possible in the second part of FY 2021-22. In 2021, it is expected that domestic business travel will pick up pace in the second quarter, as employees return to their workplaces and companies soften their travel advisories. In the interim, domestic leisure, weddings, and F&B demand is expected to drive the sector's recovery.
Some signs of positivity emerged in the hospitality sector. Leisure demand drives the growth, with holiday destinations in close proximity to major cities witnessing a surge in weekend getaway demand. The industry also witnessed a recovery in the F&B segment as people started dining out.
