"Securing the support of major tour operators and travel agents has been an integral part of the DTCM's drive to build a broader marketing base in any market and TCI is one of the largest and oldest Indian travel agency with diversified business interests," said Mr bin Mejren. He noted that TCI handled a client roster of 2,50,000 last year including both inbound and outbound from India and represented major cruise lines.
