Keswani was quoted by the publication as saying: “If you look at where Indians travel to, 70% of the Indians who travel out of India go to seven or eight cities – New York, London, Dubai, Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.

“So, these are the places where ideally we would like to operate hotels under management contracts.”

Keswani further noted that the company now aims to capitalise on the expansion of the unbranded hotel sector, both within the country and globally.
