Our single minded focus as an enterprise on ‘free cash’ delivered via our Cash Management Project has delivered handsomely with a 56% growth in free cash over the FY.”
“With forward booking for Summer 2014 already up by over 15% over last year (and this is only the start of our booking season), the impactful returns via our lkya acquisition last year, our just announced merger with Sterling Holidays with the strong synergies that the partnership offers – we are confident that 2014 will be rewarding year for the Thomas Cook India Group,” added Menon.
