FHRAI seeks infra status for hotels, convention centres in pre-Budget meet

The Federation of Hotel and Restaurant Associations of India (FHRAI) has urged the government to grant infrastructure status to all hotels and convention centers costing Rs 10 crore or more. This request, part of their pre-budget recommendations, aims to boost investment in budget hotels. FHRAI also proposed a uniform 12% GST rate for all hotels and advocated for separating restaurant tariffs from room tariffs to reduce compliance issues
