"In this year’s Union Budget, we at Machan Resorts hope for measures that encourage both sustainable and responsible tourism, including incentives for eco‑friendly infrastructure, renewable energy adoption, and low-impact operations.

 Beyond sustainability, we also look forward to policies that support the broader hospitality ecosystem such as simplified licensing, financial assistance for small and mid-sized resorts, and improved connectivity to emerging destinations. 

Such initiatives will help resorts like ours not only enhance guest experiences but also contribute meaningfully to local communities, create employment, and showcase India’s unique natural and cultural assets to domestic and international travellers alike."
