Consolidation Watch: Ixigo Gobbles Up Hourly Hotel Startup Brevistay
Impact: Medium (Travel Tech)
In a strategic shift, online travel aggregator Ixigo is acquiring a majority stake in Brevistay (a platform for hourly/daily hotel bookings) for an undisclosed sum, while also investing Rs 12 crore in two AI startups .
The B2B Play
Ixigo is aggressively building a “super-app” for hotels. This acquisition allows them to sell unused inventory for “day-use” slots, a high margin segment that helps hotels fight revenue bleed from early check-ins/late check-outs.
