Read MoreThe Ministry of Tourism (MoT), Government of India, and Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) today launched the National Digital Tourism Stack (NDTS), an open digital infrastructure initiative aimed at making more of India’s tourism ecosystem discoverable, trusted and digitally accessible, while enabling tourism to generate greater economic opportunity across the country. The launch took place on the occasion of World Tourism Day 2026, in the presence of Shri Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, Hon’ble Union Minister of Tourism & Culture, Government of India. Tourism is a significant engine of economic activity. It supports employment and livelihoods across hospitality, transport, food, retail, handicrafts, homestays, guiding services, attractions and thousands of small businesses embedded within local communities. According to official Ministry of Tourism data, India’s tourism sector contributed 5.22% to the national GDP and supported 8.46 crore jobs in 2023–24. Yet a significant part of India’s tourism supply, particularly smaller providers, local experiences and lesser-known destinations, remains fragmented across offline and digital channels. For travellers, this fragmentation creates friction across discovery, trust, payments and identity-related requirements, particularly when dealing with unfamiliar providers or navigating multiple services across a journey. For tourism businesses, it limits access to wider digital demand and can require separate integrations across platforms. The National Digital Tourism Stack is being developed to address these gaps by creating open digital infrastructure that connects destinations, homestays, guides, attractions, experiences, transport services and other tourism providers with travellers through multiple digital platforms. Unlike another standalone tourism portal or marketplace, the Stack is being designed as open digital infrastructure. For tourism providers, it will enable a “list once, reach multiple platforms” model, allowing homestays, guides, attractions and operators to publish their offerings once and become discoverable across participating applications. This will help them reach wider digital demand without having to build their own digital presence or integrate separately with every platform. For travellers it will make their journey easy by connecting places, experiences, stays, routes and last-mile mobility through shared digital infrastructure. Designed as AI-first digital infrastructure, the Stack will be built to support emerging models of travel discovery and
