The Fast Moving Consumer Goods sector in India, in which ITC is a major player, is expected to triple in size to over Rs 3,55,000 crores by 2018. There is an investment opportunity for ITC of upto Rs. 8,000 crores over the next 7 to 10 years to drive growth in this sector. Indias consumption of Paper, Paperboards & Packaging is one of the lowest in the world. Per capita consumption is around 5 kilograms per person per year compared to nearly 300 kgs in US, 200 kgs in UK, and 45 kgs in China. There is an investment opportunity of upto Rs. 6,000 crores to secure growth for ITC. ITCs Hotels are at the vanguard of service excellence and are an embodiment of Responsible Luxury. As is well known, India is grossly under-roomed. International arrivals in India are only 5 million a year, compared to around 80 million in France, 58 million in the United States and 55 million in China. At conservative estimates, India needs 50,000 rooms in the next 2 to 3 years.
