Indian offers diverse opportunities for
tourism, be it leisure or business. Over 5
million foreign tourists came to India in
2007. By comparison, domestic tourism is
significantly greater. Recent statistics
reveal that India is likely to witness a
further increase in both domestic and
international tourist strength. This
growth would need to be serviced by
substantial increase in infrastructure
including air, rail, road as well as in
hotels and restaurants.
There are an estimated 1.2 million
hotel rooms in the country of which a mere
7% (approx. 80000) are in the star
category. Four and five star hotels employ
162 people per 100 rooms as against 122
persons for one, two and three star
hotels. There are almost 750 lakh persons
employed in hotel across India, besides
those employed in the unorganized sector.
Annual demand for trained manpower in
hotels and restaurants is approximately
2.03 lakh per year. Huge expansions are
envisaged in the fast food / cafe segment
as well as the 1 to 3 star budget hotels.
The alarming fact is that a huge 30% to
40% do not join the hospitality industry
and move on to join other emerging
sectors.
