GLOBAL ECONOMY
The global economy showed remarkable strength in the face of various challenges this past year. Despite ongoing geopolitical tensions and a cost-of-living crisis affecting many countries, it managed to remain resilient. According to the International Monetary Funds (IMF) latest World Economic Outlook, global GDP growth is now projected at 2.8% for 2025, a moderation from the earlier estimate of 3.3%. The downgrade reflects the cumulative impact of geopolitical tensions, tighter financial conditions, supply chain disruptions, and escalating trade barriers, which are increasingly weighing on cross-border commerce. Global headline inflation, which averaged 5.9% in 2024, is expected to moderate to 4.4% in 2025, as central banks adopt a neutral stance fostering a more favorable environment for investments and healthcare delivery.
Regionally, the United States is expected to expand at 1.8% in 2025, with growth constrained by trade policy uncertainty and its ripple effects on consumer sentiment. China, meanwhile, is forecast to grow at 4.0%, reflecting continued headwinds in real estate and export-linked industries.
Amidst a challenging global backdrop, India continues to chart a strong growth trajectory, with GDP expansion pegged at 6.5% in 2025. This momentum is underpinned by robust domestic consumption, infrastructure upgrades, and a resilient financial ecosystem  all of which are fueling greater mobility, rising discretionary spending, and increased demand across aviation, tourism, and allied service sectors.
Outlook
Overall, 2025 is expected to be a year of moderated global growth, with advanced economies projected to grow at 1.4%, compared to 1.8% in 2024. Emerging markets and developing economies (EMDEs) are likely to expand at 3.7%, down from 4.3% in the prior year. Central banks across geographies are expected to adopt a more balanced policy stance, gradually normalizing interest rates to support growth while managing inflation risks. Despite near-term challenges, a more constructive global trade policy environment could restore business and investor confidence, setting the stage for renewed momentum in the medium term.
INDIAN ECONOMY
Amid a backdrop of persistent global macroeconomic challenges  including elevated inflation, tightening monetary policies, geopolitical disruptions, and supply chain uncertainties  India has emerged as a beacon of stability and momentum in FY2024-25. According to the second revised estimates released by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MOSPI), Indias GDP is estimated to grow by 6.5% in FY2024-25, underscoring the countrys solid macroeconomic fundamentals and strong policy support.
On the demand side, private final consumption expenditure  a key driver of domestic activity  is estimated to grow by 7.3%, buoyed by rising discretionary spending and a notable revival in rural demand. This resurgence in consumption is particularly meaningful for travel, tourism, and aviation, where rising affluence and mobility aspirations continue to spur growth.
From the supply side, real Gross Value Added (GVA) is expected to expand by 6.4%, supported by broad-based sectoral performance. The services sector, in particular, remains a pillar of resilience  projected to grow at 7.2%, driven by strong traction in financial services, real estate, professional and business services, public administration, and defence.
Strong government impetus has played a pivotal role in accelerating growth across the services sector. In FY2024-25, policy focus translated into tangible support for tourism and mobility-led consumption. The Union Budget earmarked INR 2,480 Crores for tourism infrastructure  a 46% hike  complemented by targeted reforms such as MUDRA-backed homestay loans, e-visa simplification, visa-fee waivers, and hospitality skill-building programs to empower MSMEs and youth. Flagship schemes like Swadesh Darshan 2.0 and SASCI collectively sanctioned over INR 8,500 Crore for 100+ tourism development projects, enhancing cultural destinations and visitor experiences. Simultaneously, regional air travel received a major boost under the UDAN scheme, connecting over 579 underserved routes and enabling more than 141 Lakh passenger journeys  making air travel more accessible
Retail inflation in India has consistently moderated over the past three years, easing from 6.7% to 4.6% by FY2024-25. This trend, driven by calibrated monetary policy and targeted government interventions, has helped stabilise prices and improve household purchasing power. In a further boost to demand, the Reserve Bank of India reduced the repo rate by 50 basis points to 5.50% in June 2025, lowering borrowing costs across the economy. The resulting credit stimulus is expected to support private consumption and investment  particularly in discretionary, experience-driven sectors such as travel, hospitality, and premium services.
Indias Retail Inflation on a Decline:
Outlook
According to forecasts by Morgan Stanley, India will become the worlds third-largest economy by 2028, propelled by stable macro fundamentals, consumption-driven growth, and strategic infrastructure investment. Policy tailwinds, and increased budgetary allocations are deepening access and capacity across both urban and emerging destinations. Additionally, digital transformation and rising consumer aspiration are converging to amplify premium, seamless, and experience-driven service ecosystems spanning aviation, hospitality, retail, wellness, and more.
As India enters a phase of consumption-led growth anchored in mobility, convenience, and lifestyle upgrades, the environment is highly conducive for platforms that sit at the intersection of travel, technology, and service innovation.

Outlook
Indias hospitality market was valued at USD 29.3 Billion in 2024 and is expected to grow from USD 30.78 Billion in 2025 to approximately USD 47.83 Billion by 2034, reflecting a CAGR of 5% over the forecast period. This growth is largely driven by the steady rise in both domestic and international tourism, which continues to expand the demand for travel, accommodation, and experiential services across the country. The hotel segment alone is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.4% during the same period, driven by a robust pipeline of new properties and growing demand across both business and leisure segments.
The rapid digital transformation of the travel ecosystem continues to be a critical driver, with the countrys online travel market expected to reach USD 19.05 Billion by 2025 and projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% to USD 31.38 Billion by 2030. This expansion is fuelled by increasing internet penetration, growing smartphone adoption, and the proliferation of app-based travel solutions.
Simultaneously, the wellness tourism segment is witnessing a robust surge, reflective of a global shift toward healthconscious and holistic travel experiences. Valued at USD 21.31 Billion in 2025, this market is anticipated to nearly double to USD 41.03 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 14%. Travellers are increasingly seeking destinations that offer preventive healthcare, spa retreats, and immersive wellness experiences, positioning India as a preferred hub for such offerings.
Adventure tourism is also emerging as a strategic growth avenue, with India setting its sights on becoming one of the worlds top 10 adventure tourism destinations by 2047. The sector is targeting 20 million Foreign Tourist Arrivals (FTAs) and 80 million Foreign Tourist Visits (FTVs), with an aim to generate USD 90 Billion in foreign exchange earnings through diversified adventure offerings and ecosystem development. The sectors macroeconomic impact remains significant. The tourism industry is projected to contribute USD 512 Billion to Indias GDP by 2028 and is expected to support approximately 53 million jobs by 2029, underscoring its pivotal role in employment generation and economic development.
Complementing this momentum are robust government initiatives that continue to enhance the sectors infrastructure and policy environment. Programs such as visa fee waivers, destination marketing campaigns, and the Incredible India Content Hub are strategically designed to attract international tourists and promote sustainable tourism practices. With a long-term vision of building a USD 3 Trillion tourism economy by 2047, India is laying a strong foundation for inclusive, resilient, and sustainable sectoral growth.

GLOBAL CARD INDUSTRY
The global card industry is undergoing rapid transformation in 2025, driven by the accelerated shift toward digital payments. Non-cash transactions volumes surged to 1,411 Billion in 2023 and are projected to reach 2,838.2 Billion by 2028, reflecting a robust CAGR of 15.0% between 2023 and 2028.
Regionally, Asia-Pacific (APAC) is set to lead in both volume and growth, reaching 1,457.6 billion transactions with a 17.7% CAGR. Latin America is emerging as the fastest-growing region, boasting the highest CAGR of 20.7%, signaling a rapid shift to digital payments. The Middle East and Africa (MEA) also show strong progress with a 13.6% CAGR. Meanwhile, Europe maintains steady growth at 12%, and North America, despite a lower CAGR of 7.3%, continues to be a significant and mature market in the digital payments landscape.
While card payments remain a dominant mode, Account-to- Account (A2A) and instant payments are gaining significant traction as cost-effective and faster alternatives, potentially diverting 15-25% of future card transaction growth. Capgemini forecasts that instant payments will account for 22% of all global non-cash transactions by 2028, posing a major disruption risk to traditional card networks. However, only 5% of banks are currently equipped to scale instant payment infrastructure, creating both a challenge and an opportunity for innovation.

INDIAN CARD INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
According to PwCs Indian Payments Handbook (2024-29), credit cards in force are expected to exceed 101 million by the end of FY2024-25, continuing a sustained five-year growth trend. Over the next four years, issuance is projected to double to approximately 200 million cards by FY2028-29, supported by a ~15% CAGR. Credit card transaction volume and value are both expected to expand by 21% and 18%, respectively resulting in nearly 9 billion transactions and INR 40 Trillion in cumulative spend.
In contrast, debit cards show minimal issuance growth, remaining near 980-1,000 million cards as of FY2024-25. This could be attributed to the rapid rise of mobile-first payment solutions and the penetration of QR-based UPI platforms in both urban and semi-urban markets.
Amidst these usage trends, innovations in card security and transaction efficiency have also gained ground. Contactless and tokenised transactions are on the rise, with the RBI reporting over 91 crore card-on-file tokens created by the end of 2024. These enabled more than 320 Crore secure transactions amounting to INR 11 Lakhs Crore, replacing the need to store actual card data and significantly reducing fraud risks. Simultaneously, the Payments Infrastructure Development Fund (PIDF) has been instrumental in boosting card acceptance infrastructure. As of November 2024, over 51.5 lakh physical devices and 3.5 crore digital acceptance tools, including QR codes, were deployed nationwide. This push has been especially impactful in Tier 3 to Tier 6 cities, laying the groundwork for broader card adoption.
On the regulatory front, 2024 marked a critical turning point. The RBI mandated that credit card issuers provide customers with the choice of multiple card networks, ending exclusivity agreements and fostering greater competition. Issuers with more than 1 million active cards are now required to allow customers to select their preferred network, enhancing transparency and empowering consumers. The Indian card industry is, therefore, poised for robust growth, supported by favorable demographics, expanding e-commerce, rising disposable incomes, and an increasingly digital-savvy consumer base.
The graphs above depict Indias changing payment card landscape from FY2025 to FY2029 which is expected to undergo a significant transformation, with credit card transaction volumes projected to more than double from 4.4 billion to 9.1 billion, while debit card volumes are set to decline slightly from 2.1 billion to 1.9 billion. In terms of value, credit card transactions are forecasted to rise sharply from INR 22.2 Trillion to INR 41.2 Trillion, indicating growing usage for high- value purchases, whereas debit card values show only modest growth from INR 6.1 Trillion to INR 7.7 Trillion. These trends point to a clear shift in consumer preference toward credit cards, driven by urbanization, financing flexibility, rewards programs, and integration with platforms like UPI.

Outlook
The Indian card payments industry is poised for substantial growth in 2024, with credit and charge card transactions expected to rise by 15.5%, reaching INR 22.3 Trillion (approximately USD 270.4 Billion), underscoring a pronounced shift towards digital, non-cash payment methods. Debit cards continue to dominate the landscape, buoyed by an expanding banked population and government initiatives such as the Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana (PMJDY). Overall card payments are projected to increase by 11.3%, reaching INR 28.4 Trillion (USD 344 Billion). Notably, co-branded cards are gaining increasing popularity, particularly among younger, tech-savvy consumers, fostering enhanced personalisation and engagement. The sector is witnessing a structural evolution, with issuers transitioning from offering blanket card benefits to more targeted, spend-based rewards. According to RBI data, the average credit card spend rose to approximately INR 1.80 Lakhs in FY2024 from INR 1.68 Lakhs in FY2023, marking a 7.1% increase and indicating sustained demand for premium credit card privileges such as lounge access. Driving this momentum are rapid urbanization and increased internet penetration, supported by the proliferation of smartphones, laptops, and tablets, which have streamlined access to e-commerce platforms. This digital transformation allows businesses to operate efficiently without heavy reliance on physical storefronts, significantly reducing infrastructure and overhead expenses. The Indian e-commerce market is on track for robust expansion, with forecasts estimating a market size of USD 137.21 Billion by 2025 and a CAGR of 21.5% through 2030. Key enablers propelling this growth include rising internet accessibility, widespread smartphone adoption, and government initiatives like the Digital India campaign and the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC), all fostering a more inclusive and scalable digital commerce ecosystem. Additionally, the rapid growth of Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) brands  from 2% to 15% market share over the last five years and expected to sustain a 40% CAGR further energises the sector. Increasing online shopping demand, particularly from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, continues to accelerate digital payment adoption and fuels the growing need for payment cards across India.

Convenience-driven formats  dine- in, takeaway, co-working  all contribute to strong traction, especially in urban centers and Tier 2/3 cities. Premium highway dining points serving express travellers and club memberships are increasingly being integrated into highway infrastructure and mall-cluster formats, led by both standalone operators and partnerships with aggregators.

Outlook
Premium cafe and lounge services embedded in retail hubs and travel corridors are redefining hospitality. Consumers expect seamless experiences  whether for coffee in malls, relaxed pit stops on highways, or curated access to club facilities. Aggregators offering bundled access are capitalizing on this shift, delivering concierge-style solutions across multiple venue types, enabled by partnerships with credit cards, memberships, and digital platforms.

OPERATIONAL REVIEW

Outlook: Scaling Beyond Lounges with Lifestyle-Centric Growth
DreamFolks has taken significant steps toward evolving from a lounge aggregator into a comprehensive travel and lifestyle services platform. While airport lounge access continues to anchor the business, its relative contribution is gradually moderating. The share of non-lounge services increased from 5.8% in FY2024 to 6.7% in FY2025, reflecting early success in portfolio diversification.
Looking ahead, the Company has articulated a clear five-year roadmap to expand the share of these high-potential, premium lifestyle services to to be a major contributor of total revenue. This shift will be driven by offerings such as Coffee at Malls, Access to members-only recreational facilities, Highway Dining, Golf Services, and Meet & Assist, alongside deeper penetration into enterprise client segments.
With strong execution in FY2025  including onboarding 30+ new enterprise clients, launching six new services, and expanding presence across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities  DreamFolks is well-positioned to capitalize on this diversification strategy.

Despite rising operational costs associated with network expansion and strategic hiring, EBITDA remained stable at INR 973.0 million, reflecting the Companys focus on operational efficiency. While the EBITDA margin stood at 7.5% in FY2025, reflecting strategic investments in talent and service expansion, the overall profitability remained robust and consistent with our long-term growth ambitions.

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES AND OUR STRATEGIC IMPERATIVES
The global travel and lifestyle aggregation ecosystem is undergoing a structural transformation, unlocking significant growth potential in lounge access, airport services, and ancillary offerings. Several macroeconomic and behavioral tailwinds are converging to expand the addressable market, create new service layers, and raise consumer expectations for seamless, personalized travel experiences.
Rising Passenger Volumes & Airport Infrastructure Expansion
In FY2024-25, Indias domestic aviation market sustained robust momentum, with total passenger traffic climbing to ~16.1 crore passengers  a 10.3% increase over the previous year and markedly above pre-COVID levels. Over the next decade, this momentum is expected to continue, driven by an expanding middle class, improved connectivity, and growing regional air traffic. The governments push to increase the number of operational airports to over 200 by 2035 and large-scale infrastructure upgrades create a favorable operating environment for airport-based service providers. This expansion will not only raise footfalls but also increase demand for high-quality airport experiences, including lounges, concierge services, and curated retail. We are actively positioning ourselves to capitalize on this wave by expanding our presence across new airports, railway lounges, and regional transport hubs. By aligning our service footprint with these infrastructure expansions, we aim to serve a rapidly growing base of travellers in emerging and underserved locations.
UDAN & Regional Connectivity
The updated UDAN scheme plans to connect 120 additional destinations, including helipads and remote airports, targeting 40 million new travellers over the next decade. To capture this emerging opportunity, we are actively mapping service expansion into new regional airports, offering scalable loungelike amenities and ancillary benefits tailored for smaller hubs.
Financial Inclusion Unlocking a New User Base
As more users adopt digital payments, the demand for embedded travel and lifestyle privileges is expected to grow significantly. We are working closely with banks, fintechs, and payment networks to introduce tiered incentives and experiential benefits that reward first-time and evolving card users. By aligning our offerings with Indias financial inclusion goals, we aim to broaden our addressable market and deepen customer engagement at scale.
Acceleration in Credit Card-Based Access Models
According to PwC, the number of credit cards in force in India surpassed 101 million by the end of FY2024-25, reinforcing the countrys accelerating shift toward digital credit instruments. This expansion is a result of greater financial inclusion, lifestyle- driven consumer behavior, and targeted product innovation by issuers.
Looking ahead, PwC projects that Indias credit card base will double to ~200 million cards by FY2028-29, growing at a 15% CAGR. Alongside this, annual credit card transaction volumes are expected to increase by 21% and transaction values by 18% over the same period  indicative of growing usage intensity and spend per user. Recognizing this trend, we strategically partner with banks, credit networks, and fintechs to integrate premium services like lounge access, concierge, and wellness perks into their loyalty offerings. We design flexible programs that enhance the perceived value of card products while driving engagement.
Advanced Digital & Hybrid Engagement
The industry is shifting toward digital-first, contactless experinces such as mobile boarding, QR access, digital checkins, and real-time analytics-driven up-sell models. Todays travellers expect convenience, control, and instant access. With widespread adoption of QR-based entry, contactless service, and mobile-first experiences, the future lies in intelligent, integrated platforms.
To meet this expectation, our proprietary omnichannel platform delivers seamless digital access across mobile apps, issuer platforms, and kiosks. Backed by AI-powered chatbots, predictive analytics, and card-linked service bundles we personalise offerings, enable real-time decisioning, and help clients optimize usage-based models. This data-centric approach enhances satisfaction while improving program-level ROI for our partners.
Rise in Discretionary Spending
As post-pandemic incomes recover, discretionary travel is rebounding. Consumers are prioritizing experiences over goods, spending more on leisure, exploration, and premium comfort. This shift plays directly to our strengths. Our portfolio of premium lifestyle offerings, ranging from airport lounges and golf access to wellness, grooming, and gifting services positions us to cater to travellers who seek more from every journey.
Value-Added Services as Differentiators
To stay ahead in an increasingly competitive landscape, aggregation of value-added services (VAS) is critical. Over the past year, we have introduced Golf Games & Lessons, Meet & Assist, Railway Lounges, Spa & Beauty Services, and Airport Transfers  in collaboration with top-tier partners. These services not only enhance end-user experience but also unlock new monetization models and strengthen client relationships. By expanding from airport touchpoints into holistic lifestyle aggregation, we are evolving from a transactional platform into a full-stack experience ecosystem.
Evolving Work-Leisure (Bleisure) Trends
The blending of business and leisure travel (workcations) is expanding demand for premium and convenience-led travel solutions, with travellers seeking comfort and connectivity. We are developing tailored packages that combine lounge, Wi-Fi, spa, and transit services designed specifically to support the modern bleisure travellers hybrid lifestyle.
Lounge Ecosystem Entering a High-Growth Phase
With the global lounge industry expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% (2023-2033), driven by airport privatisation and rising luxury travel demand, the potential for third-party aggregators is unprecedented. We are expanding our lounge network across international airports while simultaneously onboarding value-added services like spa, gourmet dining, and concierge experiences. Our scalable platform and strategic tie-ups with international aggregators help us unlock new geographies and strengthen our global footprint.
Enterprise Partnerships Outside Aviation
Beyond traditional airline and financial services, sectors like hospitality, e-commerce, wellness, and corporate travel are seeking experiential loyalty programs. We are extending our lifestyle aggregation model via API-driven integration, that allows enterprise clients across industries to integrate our lifestyle service such as grooming, golf, gifting, and spa directly into their consumer ecosystems.
OUTLOOK
As we transition from a year of strategic consolidation into an era of measured expansion, our focus at DreamFolks is firmly anchored in long-term value creation, diversification, and globalization. FY2024-25 reaffirmed the resilience of our business model despite macroeconomic adjustments, particularly the industry-wide shift towards spend-based benefit models. These evolving dynamics have not only validated the strength of our proprietary platform but also shaped the blueprint for our next phase of growth.
With a solid foundation in lounge aggregation and an expanding bouquet of over 20 premium travel and lifestyle services  including railway lounges, travel dining, spa & wellness, baggage wrapping, golf access, and members-only recreational facilities  we are poised to elevate our positioning from a travel enabler to a holistic lifestyle aggregator. In FY2024-25, services other than airport lounges contributed 6.7% to revenue, and we expect them to make a major contribution soon.
We have set a clear strategic goal to expand our, non-lounge services while continuing to lead in our core aggregation business. This ambition is grounded in expanding our presence across enterprise clients, forging global partnerships, and building a modular platform that can serve diverse user cohorts and geographies. Our recently introduced services  such as Coffee at Malls and Pay-and-Use programs  are specifically designed to target under-penetrated non-metro cities, broadening our demographic and geographic footprint. Our client acquisition momentum remains robust. We onboarded 30+ enterprise clients across travel, loyalty, and fintech sectors.
Technological innovation continues to underpin our growth. Our omnichannel digital infrastructure  now extended to cover real-time voucher issuance, self-check-in kiosks, and spend-based dynamic eligibility  positions us to deliver personalisation at scale. As banks and enterprises increasingly shift towards usage-linked service models, our integrated architecture allows for rapid deployment of tailored benefit stacks, enhancing both client ROI and end-user satisfaction.
With clear visibility into demand drivers such as rising premium travel, increasing credit card penetration, and expanding airport infrastructure, we are confident in our ability to lead the transformation of travel and lifestyle services in India and abroad.
THREATS
In the rapidly evolving and highly interconnected travel ecosystem, we remain acutely aware of the diverse threats that could potentially impact our operations, customer experience, and stakeholder value. One of the foremost concerns in todays digital age is cybersecurity. Protecting customer and client data is not just a compliance necessity  it is a cornerstone of our credibility. Accordingly, we have made significant investments in strengthening our cybersecurity infrastructure. Our systems are fortified with advanced technologies and governed by robust protocols to ensure end-to-end data security and privacy.
Equally important is our ability to remain agile in the face of changing market dynamics. Consumer preferences, technology adoption cycles, and global events can shift rapidly, redefining expectations almost overnight. To stay ahead, we continuously monitor industry trends and customer behavior using deep analytics and structured market intelligence. This insight- driven approach enables us to anticipate shifts, respond swiftly, and evolve our offerings to remain relevant and competitive.
We also recognize the importance of being prepared for unforeseen disruptions ranging from geopolitical events and public health crises to climate-related incidents. As a safeguard, we have established comprehensive contingency plans and scenario-based response frameworks that enhance our organizational resilience. These plans are regularly reviewed and tested to ensure operational continuity under adverse conditions.
By taking a proactive stance on risk management and investing in both strategic foresight and operational readiness, we are confident in our ability to navigate uncertainty while delivering long-term value to our partners and customers.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY
We have instituted a comprehensive internal control framework that is well-aligned with the scale and complexity of our operations. This framework reflects our unwavering commitment to ethical conduct, governance excellence, and operational discipline.
Our internal control systems are structured to support the achievement of strategic objectives, drive operational efficiency, and ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. These systems are designed to mitigate risks related to errors, fraud, and unauthorized transactions while safeguarding assets and enhancing the accuracy and reliability of both financial and operational reporting. Regular monitoring and evaluation are integral to our approach. The effectiveness, adequacy, and relevance of controls are assessed periodically to ensure they remain fit-for-purpose in a dynamic operating environment. These checks provide reasonable assurance regarding the integrity of accounting records, compliance with internal policies, and the execution of transactions in accordance with management authorization.
Oversight of the internal control environment rests with the Audit Committee of the Board, which reviews the annual audit plan, examines key audit findings, and ensures timely corrective actions are undertaken to reinforce the control ecosystem. Our internal audit function plays a pivotal role in this process. Through a structured, risk-based audit approach, the internal audit team evaluates key business processes and internal controls. The Internal Auditor reports independently to the Audit Committee, which reviews audit observations and monitors the implementation of recommended actions to further strengthen the Companys governance and assurance mechanisms.
