Vikas Sharma, Group Chief Executive Officer of Encalm Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., and Sivaprasad Gangadharan, Chief Sales Officer of Hotelogix, comment on the deployment of a cloud based property management system at Indira Gandhi International Airport
Delhi, 11 February 2026: Airport linked hospitality services at Indira Gandhi International Airport are undergoing a technology upgrade as Encalm Hospitality Pvt. Ltd. integrates a cloud based Hotel Property Management System from Hotelogix across its transit hotel operations.
Encalm Hospitality, the exclusive operator of the transit hotel at IGI Airport in New Delhi, manages premium lounges, transit accommodation, meet and assist services, and concierge operations. The company also operates at airports in Hyderabad and Goa and has outlined expansion plans in India and overseas markets.
The newly deployed system is designed to centralise operations and support high frequency short stay bookings, including hourly room sales. Transit hotels located inside or near airports often operate on compressed guest cycles, serving business travellers, airline crew, and passengers during layovers or delays. Selling rooms by the hour allows operators to generate multiple bookings within a single day.
Vikas Sharma, Group Chief Executive Officer of Encalm Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., said the company selected Hotelogix for its understanding of airport hospitality requirements. He said the platform supports end to end operational management, including hourly bookings, and enables central oversight of properties at and near airports. He added that the system provides operational control and flexibility required to manage growing airport linked operations.
The hourly booking model continues to gain traction globally. Industry estimates indicate that the segment is projected to expand significantly by 2027. In India, approximately 15 to 20 percent of hotels, primarily near airports, railway stations, and corporate hubs, have introduced hourly room formats.
Sivaprasad Gangadharan, Chief Sales Officer of Hotelogix, said airport hotels depend on efficient systems to manage high guest turnover and short stay formats. He said the company aims to support hospitality providers in improving operational efficiency while maintaining consistent guest service standards.
Hotelogix serves more than 12,000 hotels across over 100 countries and supports approximately 400,000 hotel rooms in India through its cloud PMS and AxisRooms distribution solutions. The company is headquartered in Singapore with offices across the United States, India, the UAE, Thailand, and the Philippines.
