Subject: Inviting Suggestions on the Draft Framework for the Development of 50 top Tourist Destinations and the PLI Scheme for States

Dear Members,

As you are aware, the Union Budget 2025–26 has announced plans to develop 50 top tourist destinations in the country in partnership with the states, through a challenge mode. It also unveiled an initiative to provide Performance-Linked Incentives (PLI) to the States for effective destination management including tourist amenities, cleanliness and marketing efforts to transform India into a globally recognized tourism destination.

Accordingly, the Ministry of Tourism has developed two draft frameworks for the aforesaid development of 50 destinations where hotels will be included in the infrastructure Harmonised Master List and for Performance Linked Incentives to States for effective destination management.

The draft frameworks are enclosed for your reference.

You are requested to share your comments to eatosg@fhrai.com by 8th September 2025, to enable us to submit to the Ministry on time.

If you have any query regarding the frameworks, you can send the same to destinationdevelopment.mot@gmail.com

With best regards,

Jaison Chacko
Secretary General
