Show Solution

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

This match-the-following question is best solved by recalling each business house's hotel arm one at a time and then checking which option lines up with all three.

  1. Tata: The Tata group's hotel business is the Indian Hotels Company, which runs the well known Taj group of hotels, so Tata pairs with (ii) Taj group, not with East India Hotel or Welcome group.
  2. Oberoi: The Oberoi family's hospitality business is run through East India Hotels Limited, the parent of the Oberoi and Trident hotel brands, so Oberoi pairs with (i) East India Hotel.
  3. ITC: ITC Limited's hotel division is called Welcomgroup, often referred to as the Welcome group of hotels, so ITC pairs with (iii) Welcome group.

Putting the three correct pairs together gives Tata with Taj group, Oberoi with East India Hotel, and ITC with Welcome group, which written in the option's format is A-ii, B-i, C-iii.

Let's summarize:

  • Tata's hotel brand is the Taj group.
  • Oberoi's parent hotel company is East India Hotels Limited.
  • ITC's hotel arm is Welcomgroup, the Welcome group of hotels.

So the correct answer is A-ii, B-i, C-iii, option (2).
