The new identity will act as the corporate umbrella housing OYO and its other premium brands such as Belvilla, Palette, Clubhouse, and Sunday Hotels. The Gurugram-based company has also been pushing premiumisation while expanding globally. In FY25, it deepened its footprint in the US through the acquisition of Motel 6 and Studio 6, and scaled its home business under Belvilla, Dancenter, and CheckMyGuest in Europe.
