Our capabilities are moats that allow us to stay true to our mission of quality living spaces. We are operational in ten countries. I am very happy that each of our other markets is growing exponentially and contributing to OYO’s journey in a unique manner.

However, we still believe that this is just the beginning and there's a long way ahead of us. We will continue to maintain this momentum while redefining hospitality experience for people around the world. We aspire to be the largest hotel chain. The market is undoubtedly large and deep with continuing, significant gaps in demand and supply growth. We will continue to create more value for our asset owners.

OYO Hotels & Homes is a disruptor, in fact, I'd rather say, an innovator which is fundamentally re-industrializing how small-hotels were looked at and is bringing better living spaces for the common-man globally.” - Abhishek Gupta, Chief Financial Officer, OYO Hotels & Homes.
