Foreign Tourism in IndiaForeign tourist arrivals (FTAs) in India have been consistently increasing in the last 30 years. Ever since the turn of the millennium, the number of FTAs has grown at a CAGR of 9 %, until 2012. Going forward, FTAs are expected to grow at a slower pace of 5. 9 %. This is due to stabilisation of inbound traffic after the large positive impact of the 1991 economic reforms led to a massive increase in inbound traffic during 2001?11.An Overview of the Tourism Sector In the last 20 years, outbound tourism from India has seen a sharp rise. The first decade of the current millennium saw an annual growth of 11.4%. During 2012?17, the number of Indian nationalsdepartures from India is expected to increase by more than a half of those in 2012, at a CAGR of 9.4%. During 2012?17, top three airports for departures of Indian nationals from India were Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai. Mumbai has historically seen the highest departures among the airports in India. However, the share has dropped from ~27% in 2007 to ~22% in 2012. This is primarily due to an increase in departures from Delhi, Calicut and other smaller international airports, due to introduction of international flights from these airports. The share of the top three airports has also dropped from more than 59% in 2007 to less than 56% in 2012. Companies like The Maid?s Company and Hire -a-Help, which have been in business since 2010 are taking small steps towards organising the sector.
