Choice Hospitality India has 28 properties in 21 destinations in India and another 14 properties under different stages of development.In years to come the company plans to add 20-30 new hotels each year, mostly in second tier towns, according to Choice India CEO Vilas Pawar
Takeaway: 100 percent ownership of Indian entities by US corporations is often becoming quite desirable. Growth in second tier towns in a significant factor to many new entrants. (In fact I was featured on Bloomberg TV in an interview on this very subject, click here)
