Accordingly in our first New Year 2009 Meeting, which was held on 8th. January 2009 at Hotel Diplomat, Colaba, we presented the Trophies to Mr. Vimal Punamiya and Mr. Mahabaleshwar Morje, who spoke on this occassion to our members on current matters related to the Accommodation Industry.

In response to the appeal made by our Founder President for the Donors for the first 10 Trophies, our Treasurer, Mr. Sharan Khanna responded immediately and agreed to sponsor the first 10 Trophies. We are glad to inform you that our Hon. Vice President, Mr.Bharat Gupta has also agreed to sponsor the next 10 Trophies to be given to our Speakers! Each Trophy costs Rs. 400/- per piece hence both the above Members have agreed to pay Rs. 4000/- each which isa generous gesture indeed !

Our Federation Members heartily congratulates Mr. Sharan Khanna and Mr. Bharat Gupta for their spontaneous and magnificent gesture to keep the Federation flag flying high as we are the only Organisation in the Accommodation Industry with such meticulous regularity in holding meetings year after year !
