This means international tourist footfall exceeded pre-pandemic levels in 2023, registering a 5.47 per cent growth.

India Tourism Data Compendium 2024, released by the ministry recently, stated that with the tourism sector reviving after the Covid hiatus, 95.2 lakh foreign tourist arrivals (FTAs) were recorded in 2023, achieving 87.09 per cent of pre-pandemic levels.
