Over the past 13 years, we have established a strong foothold in the Indian travel industry, and we look forward to launching our unique business model and replicate our success in these global markets as well. We are excited about the opportunities that this new phase will bring in, and we are optimistic that this will pave the way for significant expansion prospects in the future,” Nishant added.
