Leading realty player RNA Corp now plans to foray into the hospitality sector by setting up three hotels with 800-rooms capacity, a top company official said here.
"Our foray into the hospitality sector is aimed at diversification in the real estate segment. We will be investing Rs 400-crore for two hotels in suburban Andheri and Chembur and another Rs 400-crore for a luxury hotel in central Worli in Mumbai," RNA Corp vice-president Corporate Planning Manoj John said here.
The company has earmarked an investment of around Rs 2,000-crore in the next five years, John said.
The projects will be ready in the next two years, John said adding that funds would be sourced from internal accruals as well as various private equity players.
The proposed 100-150 room business hotel at Andheri will have the twin advantage of being located near the Andheri-Powai business district and the airport while the 200 room mixed-use hotel in Chembur will target domestic travellers.
It will meet transit accommodation which is driven by community gatherings and social events.
The proposed luxury hotel development will address demands from international businesses and high-end domestic customers, John said.
RNA Corp also plans to foray into lifestyle resorts targeted at the premium leisure segment at various locations pan-India. The company is considering the option of engaging 'hotel chain operators' to manage properties on the 'management contract' model.
