    Market context

    Key market insights, trends, news and related events to help you understand the bigger picture.

    South Asia — Mumbai (Bandra Kurla Complex), Maharashtra, India; India's commercial capital and the primary hub for its fast-growing outbound travel market

    Why it matters

    India is one of the world's fastest-growing outbound source markets, with roughly 25–30 million outbound departures a year and outbound spend in the tens of billions of USD (indicative — verify current ministry/press figures). OTM sits in Mumbai, the country's wealthiest metro and its biggest outbound departure point, and concentrates national tourism boards, OTAs, DMCs and airline leadership in one hall. For destinations and suppliers, three days here delivers access to Indian trade intermediaries, OTA distribution decision-makers and the AI-driven booking platforms reshaping how Indian travellers buy long-haul travel.

    Industry trends

    Key trends shaping this market and its wider industry.

    01

    Digital buyer journeys

    Professionals expect pre-show agendas, product finders, and meeting tools; suppliers align demos and literature to short on-stand decision cycles.

    02

    Sustainability in procurement

    Energy use, recyclable materials, and carbon reporting increasingly appear in RFPs and exhibitor scorecards across industrial trade fairs.

    03

    Automation and labour efficiency

    Visitors benchmark machinery, software, and services that reduce downtime, staffing pressure, and total cost of ownership.

    04

    Regional supply-chain resilience

    Buyers diversify suppliers across Europe, MENA, and Asia while favouring vendors with local service, spare parts, and training.

    05

    Hybrid engagement models

    Live demonstrations remain decisive, but follow-up webinars, digital catalogues, and year-round supplier portals extend the commercial window after the show.

    Global travel-trade circuit for outbound-focused suppliers

    Book OTM space and badges 4–6 months out for the February window, then align with ITB Berlin (March) and WTM London (November) for a complete annual cycle.

    OTM Mumbai is India's principal outbound-focused trade show; it sits between the Indian domestic circuit (SATTE, TTF) and the global buy-side events in Europe and the Gulf, and is most effective when sequenced into a full-year trade-show plan.

    Plan your trip

    Planning

    Best day to visit: Day 2 (Tuesday, 2 February 2027)

    Opening day (Monday, 1 February) is dominated by registration, ribbon-cutting and the opening keynote, and closing day typically winds down early. Day 2 gives the fullest combination of a fully staffed exhibition floor, the densest conference schedule (including the AI-in-travel and Indian online travel market sessions with MakeMyTrip, Cleartrip and L&T speakers) and the best availability for buyer-seller appointments. If you can only attend one day and your priority is sourcing rather than content, target Day 2 and pre-book meetings before you travel.

    1

    5

    Download the show floor plan and programme — Review the exhibitor list and conference sessions to plan your hall routes.

    6

    Request B2B meetings with exhibitors — Reach out to tour operators, tourism boards and hotel groups ahead of the show.

    7

    Shortlist conference sessions — Mark sessions on outbound travel, MICE and destination marketing that match your goals.

    8

    Arrange airport transfer and local transport — Pre-book a taxi or plan metro and ride-hailing options from BOM to the venue.

    9

    QUESTION 1 OF 6

    What is your primary role?

    Decision matrix

    Compare participation options side by side to choose the best fit for your objectives.

    visit

    You need supplier meetings, destination briefings or AI/distribution insight, and can commit two or three full days on the floor and in conference sessions.

    Best for

    Travel-trade buyers, tour operators, DMCs, travel-tech evaluators and trade press assessing outbound destinations, products and distribution for the Indian market

    Min. budget

    $525.00

    Timeline

    4–8 weeks ahead: visa (apply 2+ weeks out), flights, and a BKC-area or Bandra hotel booked early for February peak season

    Risks

    Budget estimate from listing cost signals — confirm live rates.

    February is high season in Mumbai and large shows tighten hotel availability near BKC.

    e-Visa processing can slip if applied inside two weeks of travel.

    exhibit

    India outbound is a named growth market for you and you can staff the stand with senior, deal-capable people for all three days.

    Best for

    NTOs, hotels and resorts, cruise lines, OTAs, DMCs and travel-tech vendors selling into or out of the Indian outbound market

    Min. budget

    $4,500.00

    Timeline

    6–9 months: space booking, stand design and build, freight/ATA carnet, staff travel and pre-scheduled buyer meetings

    Risks

    Budget estimate from listing cost signals — confirm live rates.

    Stand space plus build, freight, insurance and travel is several times a visitor budget.

    Return depends on pre-booked buyer meetings — walk-up traffic alone rarely justifies the investment.

    skip

    Your India pipeline is already covered through distributors or agents, or the outbound segment is out of scope for the next 12 months.

    Best for

    Suppliers with no India outbound exposure, or teams already committed to SATTE, ITB Berlin or WTM London and with no bandwidth for another show

    Timeline

    No commitment required

    Risks

    Skipping the cycle cedes Indian outbound share to competitors who attend and follow up locally.
