On 3 October 2026, Odisha took an important step towards making tourism investment more connected and easier with the launch of the Odisha Tourism Investment & Incentives Management System (OTIIMS) at Odisha Travel Bazaar ’26 in Bhubaneswar. The platform was launched by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Odisha, Shri Mohan Charan Majhi, making the occasion a proud moment for everyone associated with the initiative.

Odisha has always welcomed the world with open arms through its rich culture, beautiful temples, beaches, forests and warm hospitality. “Atithi Devo Bhava” is not just a saying here, it is a part of the spirit of the state. OTIIMS brings this spirit into the digital space by making the tourism incentive process easier to follow for investors and businesses looking to be part of Odisha’s growth.


For our team, the launch was more than just the completion of a project. It was a moment where months of discussions, coordination and hard work finally came together. OTIIMS is the result of the collaborative efforts of the Department of Tourism, Government of Odisha, NIC Odisha and Luminous Infoways. Seeing the platform officially launched was a truly proud and memorable moment for our company.


For investors, OTIIMS brings the tourism incentive process into a more organised digital system. From applying for incentives to tracking the progress of an application through different stages, the platform helps make the process easier to follow and more transparent. This can make it simpler for tourism businesses and investors to understand where their application stands and what comes next.
With the platform now live, OTIIMS can begin serving the investors and businesses it was built for, while supporting new opportunities and growth in the state.


For everyone involved, seeing OTIIMS move from development to an official launch was a special moment. What started with discussions, planning and development has now taken the shape of a platform that people can actually use. We look forward to seeing it support investors, encourage new ideas and contribute to the continued growth of tourism in Odisha.
