Indian Hotels Company Limited has entered into a framework agreement with Rajdarbar Group to develop seven Ginger hotels across north India, adding over 1,000 rooms to its portfolio. The partnership covers a mix of greenfield and brownfield projects and has already seen the opening of a 59-key Ginger hotel in Gurugram.

The hotels will operate under fully fitted lease models, supporting IHCL's asset-light expansion strategy in high-demand regional markets.
Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) has announced a framework agreement with Rajdarbar Group to develop seven new Ginger hotels across key cities in north India, strengthening the group's presence in the mid-scale hospitality segment. The agreement is expected to add more than 1,000 rooms to the Ginger portfolio and aligns with IHCL's broader strategy of expanding through asset-light formats in high-demand urban and regional markets.

According to IHCL, the agreement highlights the strong growth potential of the Ginger brand across metros, state capitals, commercial hubs, industrial clusters, pilgrimage centres and leisure destinations. The company said the partnership reflects rising demand for branded, efficient accommodation in both established and emerging cities, especially those benefiting from improved connectivity and business activity.
The proposed hotels will include a combination of greenfield and brownfield developments. The collaboration has already moved into execution with the opening of a 59-key Ginger hotel at Palam Vihar in Gurugram, Haryana, marking the first operational property under this arrangement. IHCL indicated that this opening sets the foundation for a steady rollout of additional hotels under the same framework.
Under the pipeline outlined in the agreement, new Ginger properties are planned in cities such as Jaipur, Agra, Mathura, Vrindavan, Hisar and Karnal. These locations have been identified for their mix of business travel, religious tourism and domestic leisure demand. The hotels will be developed through fully fitted lease arrangements, allowing IHCL to scale the brand while limiting upfront capital expenditure.
Ginger, which operates in the lean luxe segment, has been a key growth driver for IHCL over the past few years. The brand has seen expansion across tier I, II and III cities, supported by consistent demand from corporate travellers, tourists and short-stay guests. IHCL has previously indicated that north India remains a priority market due to infrastructure upgrades, industrial corridors and rising tourism flows.
