The company has approved a composite scheme involving the demerger of the resorts and resort management business into Sterling Holiday ResortsThe restructuring could help create a more focused structure for the individual businesses and improve visibility of their underlying performance.Overall View:
Thomas Cook India is an interesting India travel growth + forex + hospitality story.
The near term numbers remain affected by geopolitical disruption, but the long term opportunity comes from India’s rapidly expanding outbound travel market and increasing demand for travel related financial services.
For me, the key monitorables are travel recovery, forex growth, hospitality performance and profitability improvement.
