Ritesh Agarwal dropped out of college at age 17 in 2012 to start Oyo Rooms. Oyo Rooms began as Oravel Stays in 2012, offering budget accommodations through listings and bookings, but Agarwal realized this did not meet travelers' needs. In 2013, he transformed it into Oyo Rooms to offer affordable and standardized hotels. Oyo Rooms has since grown to be India's largest branded hotel chain with over 4,500 hotels across 160+ cities. It aims to become the world's largest branded hotel network by standardizing service and prices across hotels.
