Abstract

The Indian tourism sector is one of the largest service industries in the country in terms of its contribution to the gross domestic product (GDP) and foreign exchange earnings (FEE), as well as for providing employment to millions. Ministry of tourism in India is already promoting new concepts like rural, golf, wellness, adventure, medical, heliport, and sustainable / ecotourism in order to make it a major global tourist destination. With cruise tourism emerging as one of the most dynamic segments of the leisure industry globally, India believes to add this to its kitty. In this paper, efforts are made to explore the potential for cruise tourism in India and strategies that are employed by the government to attract investment.
