Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group is planning to have 200 hotels in India by 2020 and expecting to introduce two new brands Raddison Red and Quorvus Collection in the country soon. 

"We currently have 66 properties in operation and 42 in the pipeline in India. This year we are planning 12 properties in the country. We are eyeing 200 hotels by 2020 in India," Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group Chairperson Diana L Nelson said. 

The main focus of the US-headquartered hospitality group is to penetrate all markets, she said, adding that after establishing presence in the metros the company is now looking at extending its brands to tier II and the capital cities. 

"Most of our growth will come from our mid-scale brands," she said. 

She further said that in India, the opportunities will be more from the domestic travellers. 

The group has four brands in India - Radisson Blu, Park Plaza, Country Inns & Suites by Carlson and Park Inn by Radisson. 

"We are now planning to introduce two more - Radisson Red and Quorvus Collection - in India," Nelson added. 

Radisson Red is mainly targeted at the tech savvy 'generation Y', she said. 

"We are hoping to introduce Radisson Red by 2015. This brand will work very well for the tech savvy crowd mainly in tier-1 and 2 cities. We have a target of 60 properties under this brand globally," Nelson said.
