Indicator Summary

The international Tourist Arrivals (FTAs) month-wise change (%) indicates how many international visitors entered India in a certain month compared to the same month the year before. It is calculated as follows:

[(Averages this month – Arrivals last month) ÷ Arrivals last month] × 100%

Understanding the rate and seasonality of the tourism rebound, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, requires monitoring month-by-month percentage changes. Significant drops in some months may indicate changes in travel-related policies, security issues, or geopolitical upheavals. Positive spikes, on the other hand, signify increases in demand, effective marketing initiatives, or popular travel times.

These trends are used by policymakers and tourism planners to estimate income, adjust marketing plans, distribute infrastructure expenditures, and guarantee preparedness during busy times. For instance, the fact that February witnessed fewer arrivals than the previous year prompts tourism stakeholders to look into and resolve the root issues. All things considered, month-by-month variation in FTAs offers a precise, timely indicator of the health of incoming tourism, assisting stakeholders in taking preventative action.
