In this strategic role, Sharma will lead the company\u2019s hospitality practice across the Indian market, leveraging his extensive experience to capitalise on emerging opportunities in India\u2019s rapidly evolving hotel and hospitality sector. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sharma will be based in Delhi and will report to JLL\u2019s Hotel & Hospitality Group, Asia Pacific CEO Nihat Ercan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sharma\u2019s appointment marks his return to JLL India, where he previously led the capital markets team for North India from 2006 to 2012, and comes at a pivotal time as India\u2019s hospitality sector demonstrates exceptional growth momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to JLL analysis, the hotel sector in India has delivered outstanding performance with Revenue per Available Room (RevPAR) surging 10.5% year-over-year as of YTD September 2025, building on 2024\u2019s record-breaking achievements that included over 42,071 new keys and approximately 25 significant investment transactions. This robust trajectory is evidenced by unprecedented development activity, with 182 hotel signings totalling 22,469 keys in the first half of 2025, a jump of 16% from the same time last year, reinforcing the sector\u2019s strategic expansion beyond traditional urban centres as more than 70% of new signings concentrate in tier 2 and 3 cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
