The tourism industry in india is witnessing a whopping 30% YoY growth. The foreign exchange revenue stands at about 22000 Crore which has been highest for last 10 years. India's travel industry is thriving due to an increase in foriegn tourist visiting india as well as the rise in domestic tourist. Visitors are pouring in from all parts of the world: specially from europe. The trend has changed a lot as compared to few years back. Even in summers tourist are coming out to experience the beauty of resorts in Himalayan Moutains range.

The 9/11 has created a concern over the tourist travelling more, however that has been worked as a catalyst for Indian tourism industry. With SARS, Tsunami, Kashmir issues, it was believed that the begative trend in on the doorstep however nothing of such kind is seen in last couple of months.

There are several reasons for the boom, however catagorically there may be 4 reasons.

1. Online access of booking.

I remember the days when my dad used to call up many agents to find out the accomodatin and transportation for any city other than Metros. I feel relax now when I could see a lot of travel agents have come with their online booking facilities. Just search, compare the rates and book. Thats All. I booked few hotels recently using http://www.desiya.in and got 100% satisfaction.

2. Indian Govt Initiative

Recently the ministry has announced of investing more in the industry. In the recent budget, Finance Minister PC announced a good amount of money to be invested in travel industry.Aggressive advertising campaign " Incredible India" by the government has also had contribution in changing India's image a lot.

3. Global tourism has dropped

Globally the tourism industry has seen a down turn. This has helped india a lot. More foreign tourist are now focusing on India as well as south Asian countries.

4. more aviation options to India.

Recently there was almost a flow of announces of new flights to and from India. This has helped the tourist having more option suiting to their timings.

There is no doubt there will be better facilities in india would be available very soon. Ultimately more people will travel across the country to explore the hidden beauties that has been uncovered for years.
