The Indian Hotels Company Limited, India’s largest hospitality company, continues to build on its growth momentum, expanding its portfolio to six hundred fifteen hotels, including three hundred sixty operational properties and a robust pipeline of two hundred fifty-five hotels.
Commenting on the expansion, Suma Venkatesh, Executive Vice President – Real Estate and Development, said the growth aligns with IHCL’s Accelerate two thousand thirty strategy. She highlighted the company’s entry into the integrated wellness segment through the acquisition of a controlling stake in Atmantan, along with a definitive agreement to acquire a majority stake in boutique experiential brand Brij.
During the third quarter, IHCL strengthened its brand presence across key markets. Taj expanded further in Bengaluru and the National Capital Region, extended its footprint in Sri Lanka, and marked its debut in Egypt. Other brands, including Gateway, Tree of Life and Ginger, also recorded steady signings across destinations such as Bengaluru, Panheli, Nashik, Gurugram and Ahmedabad.
Deepika Rao, Executive Vice President – Hotel Openings and New Businesses, said recent openings reflected the diversity of IHCL’s brand portfolio. Taj entered Bhutan with properties in Paro and Phobjika, while SeleQtions expanded into Mandawa, Nadiad and Varanasi. New openings also included Brij in Bandhavgarh, Tree of Life in Sariska, Vivanta in Aluva, Cochin, and properties under Vivanta and Ginger in Ekta Nagar, Ahmedabad and Gurugram.
With these additions, IHCL’s operational inventory now exceeds thirty-two thousand rooms across three hundred sixty hotels. The company remains on track to achieve its target of a seven hundred hotel portfolio under the Accelerate two thousand thirty roadmap.
