INDIA · INDUSTRY COHORTS

How does travel and hospitality compare?

Each pair uses the same year, currency and reporting basis. Cohort overlap is disclosed.

IndustryCovered / eligibleRevenue totalMedian revenueNet profit / lossAggregate marginProfitable shareOverlap

Available-account cohorts are not estimates of whole industries. Overlapping entities can occur in more than one cohort; do not add cohort totals.

Coverage, calculations & financial sources

Filed annual accounts for exact designated national identifiers. Every aggregate and peer pair uses one fiscal year, source currency and reporting basis; periods, coverage and overlap are explicit; 2026 partials are excluded.

The same up to eight reporting entities remain open across years, filters and sorts. Other company figures are available in Radar.

Source currencies and accounting bases stay separate. Missing accounts are excluded rather than treated as zero. Exact reporting periods appear on company previews. Annual totals can change with coverage and do not measure growth of a fixed company cohort.

DIGITAL FOOTPRINT

Web traffic, app reach and release cadence

How the India companies on this page show up online: the sites people visit, the apps they install, and how often those apps ship.

Busiest websites

44 of the 6,446 companies on this page carry a measured traffic record (0.7%); these are the largest of those, by monthly visits. The median among them is 308,214 visits.

Visits and authority are third-party web estimates, not company-reported figures.

Most-installed apps

288 of these companies (4.5%) publish at least one Android app — 417 apps in all, carrying 91.9M installs between them.

Installs are lifetime totals to date at the June 2026 store reading — a measure of reach, not of people using an app today.

App reach by segment

The busiest app inside each of this page’s own segments, with the quarterly release trend behind it (2024Q1–2026Q2).

SegmentAppsInstallsLeading appRelease trend
Passenger Airlines1345.4MIndiGo Flight Booking App 28.3M
Bus Operators6910.5MKSRTC AWATAR Booking App 5.1M

Passenger Rail Operators113.2MDMRC Rydr 1.7M
Restaurants22.7Mアパ直:アパ トラベル ホテル直接予約 2.7M

A company can carry several segment tags, so these rows overlap and should not be added together. Trend lines are zero-based and share one quarter grid, so a flat line is a quiet segment, not a missing one.

Release cadence by quarter

New apps published, beside apps whose most recent update landed in that quarter — the second bar is how much of the shelf is still being maintained.

2023Q2: 62023Q2: 42023Q22023Q3: 72023Q3: 32023Q32023Q4: 102023Q4: 72023Q42024Q1: 42024Q1: 82024Q12024Q2: 102024Q2: 102024Q22024Q3: 132024Q3: 132024Q32024Q4: 122024Q4: 182024Q42025Q1: 112025Q1: 182025Q12025Q2: 82025Q2: 142025Q22025Q3: 92025Q3: 322025Q32025Q4: 52025Q4: 642025Q42026Q1: 112026Q1: 832026Q1

Darker bars are new releases, lighter bars apps updated. 213 of 417 apps carry a release date. The series ends at 2026Q1, the last quarter that closed before the June 2026 reading.

DEMAND, SUPPLY & PLACE

Where demand signals run ahead of mapped supply — India

Compare demand signals in India’s newsflow with the travel and hospitality categories mapped to each signal.

Expand panel +
HOW TO READ THE GAP

Signal percentile − supply percentile = gap in percentile points. Positive gaps highlight questions to investigate. A high signal can reflect spending pressure or access friction, as well as potential demand.

The comparison is relative to the signal families on this page. A supply percentile of zero means the lowest relative reading, not zero companies. It is a prioritisation clue, not measured market size or unmet demand.

UNDERSTAND THE LANDSCAPE

Travel and Hospitality in India: key questions

Clear definitions for making better comparisons.

What does this landscape measure?

It measures the tracked company ecosystem, recorded funding, hiring and other available evidence. It is not a market-size estimate.

Can segment counts be added together?

No. A company can belong to several segments, so segment counts and funding can overlap.

What does a missing figure mean?

A dash or unavailable panel means the current reviewed source snapshot does not support that figure.

Company ecosystem snapshot: 6 August 2026. Funding is recorded in USD; filed accounts retain their stated currency and reporting basis. Each section identifies its own coverage. The news and research behind these sections is explorable in Prism.
