INDUSTRY PROFILE
History Of Hospitality Industry
The hospitality industry's backbone is comprised of
customer service, a concept shared by all segments of the
industry. Your small business may focus on one or all facets of
hospitality. How accomplished you and your staff are at serving
others will determine your business' level of success. You may
find it easier to excel in just one category of the hospitality
industry. However, though costs and challenges will increase,
owning or managing several facets of hospitality can provide you
with many more opportunities to generate success
A Brief History of India's Hotel Industry
Before World War 11, most hotels in India were developed in
locations that were frequented by the British and Indian
aristocracy. This period saw the development of hotels being
undertaken by individual British and Indian entrepreneurs, with
only a few companies owning hotels in India, such as The Taj
Group--Indian Hotel Company (owned by J. R. D. Tata) and
Falsetto's Hotel, East India Hotel oberoi Group. The important
hotels that were built during India's British period were:
The Rugby, Matheran (1876)
The Taj Hotel, Mumbai (1900)
The Grand, Calcutta (1930)
The Cecil Hotels, Shimla and Muree (1935)
The Savoy, Mussoorie (1936)
India gained independence in 1947, and the hotel industry
had a period in which no 1 hotel development took place. Upon
his return from the Non-Aligned Movement Conference in 1956,
Late Pundit Jawaharlal Nehru, then Prime Minister of India,

7
recognized that tourism could be an engine for the country's
economic growth and was inspired to / build quality hotels in
India for visiting foreign dignitaries. This led to the first-ever
government investment in the hotel industry with the building of
the Ashoka Hotel in New Delhi. I The India Tourism Development
Corporation (ITDC) was set up in 1966 as a corporation under the
Indian Companies Act of 1956, with the merger of Janpath Hotel
India Ltd. and India Tourism Transport Undertaking Ltd. Today,
ITDC provides a complete range of tourism services, including
accommodation, catering, entertainment and shopping, hotel
consultancy, duty free shops, and an in-house travel agency. The
government gave the tourism industry another boost when it
created the Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation in 1967,
separating it from the Ministry of Transport and Shipping, thereby
recognizing that tourism was not simply about transporting
people from point A to point B but had a much wider role to play
in the nation's economy. Concurrently, Rai Bahadur M. S. Oberoi,
Chairman of East India Hotels Ltd., was expanding his empire by
constructing New Delhi's first modern multi-story hotel, which
was franchised to U.S.-based Inter-Continental Hotels. The
portfolio of Oberoi hotels consisted of The Cecil, Shimla; The
Oberoi Grand, Calcutta; The Oberoi Clarks, Shimla; The Oberoi
Palm Beach; and Gopalpur on the Sea.
The Taj Mahal Hotel in Bombay was the next to follow this
franchising trend in 1970 when it adopted an Inter-Continental
hotel franchise for its new hotel in Bombay. Simultaneously, the
Oberoi Tower Hotel under construction in Bombay entered into a
franchise and management agreement with Sheraton. Holiday Inn
also made its entry into India through franchising its hotel project
in Bombay. This was the beginning of the methodical planning,

8
designing, decorating, and furnishing of hotels in India, along
with the installation of systems for operating various departments
in a hotel. The training of managerial and other personnel was an
important franchise benefit, and the first few batches of managers
trained by the Inter-Continental Hotel Company set a new trend
of competent professional hotel management for India's hotels
that continues to influence and guide India's hotel industry today.
Before the marketing impact of hotel franchising and hotel
management by expatriate managers could be assessed and could
proliferate, however, there was a surge of nationalism in India,
resulting in the elimination of management service as an integral
part of franchise agreements. In 1975 ITDC launched its hotel
business with the acquisition of a hotel in Chennai, which was
rechristened "Hotel Chola".
The objective of ITDC's entry into the hotel industry was
rooted in the concept of creating value for the nation. ITDC chose
the hotel industry because of its potential to earn high levels of
foreign exchange, create a tourism infrastructure, and generate
large-scale direct and indirect employment. Three Welcome Group
Hotels were commissioned between 1975 and 1977; these were
non-franchised hotels, inspired by the slogan "Be Indian, Buy
Indian" and using Indian expertise. Ultimately, however, these
hotels adopted the Sheraton system in 1978 and used the
services of expatriates for the purposes of upgrading staff training
and installing Sheraton operating systems-all without a
management contract. This gave the Welcome Group a good start.
It must be noted, though, that it took time for these hotels to
achieve substantial foreign occupancies. The tacit discouragement
of foreign franchising by the government led the leading Indian
hotel companiesnamely The Taj, the Oberoi hotels, and the

9
Welcome Group-to launch their own franchising and management
programs, giving rise to indigenous franchise operations. Their
focus, however, was the 5-star and 5-star-deluxe categories of
hotels. Such hotels were located in the prominent metropolitan
cities and a few select resorts, leading to a concentration of
franchised hotels in these areas.
Motivated by the success stories of the hotels in the metro
cities, individual entrepreneurs began constructing hotels in
secondary cities/resorts during the late 1970s. When India agreed
to host the 1982 Asian Games, a boost was given to the country's
hotel industry. The government announced a national policy on
tourism and outlined the country's tourism development
objectives. This policy was timed to help the country meet the
huge need for hotel rooms in New Delhi, the venue of the Asian
Games. The government granted licenses for building hotels to the
Ta j - Taj Palace, Asian Hotels -Hyatt Regency, India Tourism
Development Corporation- Lodhi Hotel, Samrat Hotel, Kanishka,
Le Mkridien, and Surya Sofitel, with the stipulation that their new
hotels had to be completed in time for the games. With the
opening of these hotels, hotel franchising in the first-class/5-star
hotel segment within the metro cities got further strengthened. It
also gave rise to the fallacy that tourism was an elitist activity
that lacked mass appeal.
Growth of Tourism and Hospitality in India in the recent
years
 Tourism in India accounts for 6.8 per cent of the GDP and
is the third largest foreign exchange earner for the country

10
 The tourism and hospitality sector’s direct contribution to
GDP totaled US$ 44.2 billion in 2015
 Over 2006–15, direct contribution is expected to register a
CAGR of 10.5 per cent

largest element of the hospitality industry and can take the form
of high-end restaurants, fast-food eateries, catering
establishments and many other manifestations. The food and
beverage trade can symbiotically function as part of other
businesses, such as in bowling alleys or movie theaters. When
your restaurant is part of a hotel, food and beverage can

11
dramatically enhance the overall guest experience by offering
excellent food and first-class customer service.
Accommodations
Hotels, bed and breakfast enterprises and other places
offering lodging represent a broad segment of the hospitality
industry. Types of businesses run the gamut from extravagant
resorts to hostels and campgrounds. Your business' focus on
providing lodging should integrate comfort, efficiency and
attentive customer service as its foundation. Travelers value
thoughtful treatment and simple amenities. When they feel
appreciated and catered to, your guests will tell others about their
experience and may become repeat customers.
Travel and Tourism
Another chief segment of the hospitality business
encompasses transportation. This includes airlines, trains, cruise
ships and the staff for each. Flight attendants and cruise staff
function as food servers and hoteliers in their efforts to provide
food or drink and a comfortable experience. Business travelers
and vacationers alike form the basis for this area of hospitality.
Travel and tourism requires knowledgeable employees in
information technology, and they are also considered a part of
hospitality. Destinations such as amusement parks draw
thousands of people, all of whom want to benefit from great
customer service while enjoying a memorable adventure.

MARKETING- IT'S MEANING AND DEFINITION
Meaning
Businessman regards marketing as a management function
to a plan, promote and deliver products to the customers. There
are twin activities which are significant in marketing.
1. Matching the product with demand, i.e., customer needs
and desires to target market.
2. The transfer of ownership and possession at every stage in
the flow of goods from the primary producer to the ultimate
consumer.
In other words, marketing includes all activities from the
point of production to the point of consumption.
Definition
Marketing is a social and managerial process by which
individual and group obtain what they need and want through
creating, offering and exchanging products of value with order.
- Philip Kotler.

25
Importance Of Marketing
The heart of your business success lies in its marketing.
Most aspects of your business depend on successful marketing.
The overall marketing umbrella covers advertising, public
relations, promotions and sales. Marketing is a process by which
a product or service is introduced and promoted to potential
customers. Without marketing, your business may offer the best
products or services in your industry, but none of your potential
customers would know about it. Without marketing, sales may
crash and companies may have to close.
Customer Importance in Marketing
A business can never place too much emphasis on its
customers. The customer is the foundation of any business'
success. One of the primary goals of any marketing strategy
should be to identify and meet the needs of the consumer.
Considering customer importance at all stages of the marketing
process helps your company to ensure greater customer
satisfaction and increase its long-term goal of repeat business.

26
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION MEANING AND DEFINITION
Definition
“A person’s feeling of pleasure or disappointment after
comparing a product’s perceived performance or outcome against
his/ her expectations”. It’s the core of any successful business,
but it doesn’t come easy.
- Philip Kotler.
Meaning
So the purpose of marketing centers very much upon
creation of value and a long-term customer relationships.
Customer satisfaction is a central concept to this proposal. A
marketing company aims to set a level of expectation at which
customers are satisfied that value is delivered through
an exchange process.
Importance Of Customer Satisfaction
Here are the top six reasons why customer satisfaction is so
important:
 It’s a leading indicator of consumer repurchase intentions
and loyalty
 It’s a point of differentiation
 It reduces customer churn
 It increases customer lifetime value

27
 It reduces negative word of mouth
 It’s cheaper to retain customers than acquire new ones
1. It's a leading indicator of consumer repurchase
intentions and loyalty :
Customer satisfaction is the best indicator of how likely a
customer will make a purchase in the future. Asking customers to
rate their satisfaction on a scale of 1-10 is a good way to see if
they will become repeat customers or even advocates.
Any customers that give you a rating of 7 and above, can be
considered satisfied, and you can safely expect them to come back
and make repeat purchases. Customers who give you a rating of 9
or 10 are your potential customers who you can leverage to
become evangelists for your company.
Scores of 6 and below are warning signs that a customer is
unhappy and at a risk of leaving . These customers need to be put
on a customer watch list and followed up so you can determine
why their satisfaction is low.
2. It’s a point of differentiation
In a competitive marketplace where businesses compete for
customers; customer satisfaction is seen as a key differentiator.

28
Businesses who succeed in these cut-throat environments are the
ones that make customer satisfaction a key element of their
business strategy.
3. It reduces customer churn
An Accenture global customer satisfaction report (2008)
found that price is not the main reason for customer churn; it is
actually due to the overall poor quality of customer service.
Customer satisfaction is the metric you can use to reduce
customer churn. By measuring and tracking customer
satisfaction you can put new processes in place to increase the
overall quality of your customer service.
4. It increases customer lifetime value
A study by info quest found that a ‘totally satisfied
customer’ contributes 2.6 times more revenue than a ‘somewhat
satisfied customer’. Furthermore, a ‘totally satisfied customer’
contributes 14 times more revenue than a ‘somewhat dissatisfied
customer’.
Satisfaction plays a significant role in how much revenue a
customer generates for your business.

29
Successful businesses understand the importance of
customer lifetime value (CLV). If you increase CLV, you increase
the returns on your investments.
Customer lifetime value is a beneficiary of high customer
satisfaction and good customer retention.
5. It reduces negative word of mouth
McKinsey found that an unhappy customer tells between 9-
15 people about their experience. In fact, 13% of unhappy
customers tell over 20 people about their experience.
That’s a lot of negative word of mouth.
How much will that affect your business and its reputation
in your industry?
Customer satisfaction is tightly linked to revenue and repeat
purchases. What often gets forgotten is how customer satisfaction
negatively impacts your business. It’s one thing to lose a
customer because they were unhappy. It’s another thing
completely to lose 20 customers because of some bad word of
mouth.
To eliminate bad word of mouth you need to measure
customer satisfaction on an ongoing basis. Tracking changes in
satisfaction will help you identify if customers are actually happy
with your product or service.

30
6. It’s cheaper to retain customers than acquire new ones
This is probably the most publicized customer satisfaction
statistic out there. It costs six to seven times more to acquire new
customers than it does to retain existing customers.
If that stat does not strike accord with you then there’s not
much else I can do to demonstrate why customer satisfaction is
important.
Customers cost a lot of money to acquire. You and your
marketing team spend thousands of dollars getting the attention
of prospects, nurturing them into leads and closing them into
sales.
