The proposed investment will be directed towards developing new hotel projects and upgrading service offerings to cater to both domestic and international tourists. According to a senior company official, the expansion is part of Manglam Group’s broader strategy to capitalise on the rising demand for tourism across India, with a particular focus on luxury hotels that can deliver high-quality services in popular tourist destinations.

The move comes at a time when India’s hospitality market is witnessing strong growth, driven by increased domestic travel, rising business activity and international tourist arrivals returning to pre-pandemic levels. Manglam Group’s entry into the hotels and resorts segment is expected to create employment opportunities and boost economic activity, especially in Rajasthan, where tourism and hospitality play a critical role in the state’s economy. The group has already outlined plans to roll out multiple hospitality ventures over the coming years, with a strong emphasis on enhancing customer experience through modern amenities and strategically located properties. The investment underlines Manglam Group’s confidence in the long-term growth prospects of India’s hospitality industry and its commitment to contributing to the sector’s expansion.
