Hyatt has announced the appointment of Saurabh Malhotra as Cluster Director of Sales & Marketing for Hyatt Regency Amritsar Hotel & Spa and Hyatt Regency Dharamshala Resort, effective March 16, 2026.

With over 20 years of experience in the hospitality industry, Malhotra brings a strong mix of commercial expertise and leadership across luxury and lifestyle brands. His professional journey reflects a consistent focus on strategic sales planning, brand positioning, and revenue optimisation.

An alumnus of IHM Jaipur and Symbiosis, Malhotra began his association with Hyatt in 2004 at Hyatt Regency Delhi. After a decade-long stint with global airlines, he rejoined the brand in 2016 at Andaz Delhi, where he progressed through key sales leadership roles. In 2022, he moved to Hyatt Regency Lucknow as Director of Sales, contributing to record revenue growth at the property.

In his new role, Malhotra will oversee the sales and marketing strategy for Hyatt’s Amritsar and Dharamshala properties, with a focus on strengthening market positioning, driving revenue performance, and enhancing brand visibility across key segments.

Beyond his professional achievements, Malhotra is known for his deep admiration for the Indian Armed Forces, which he regards as a personal source of inspiration.

Hyatt expressed confidence that his leadership will play a key role in further strengthening the commercial success of its properties in Amritsar and Dharamshala.

Located in the heart of Amritsar, Hyatt Regency Amritsar Hotel & Spa offers a blend of modern luxury and traditional Punjabi warmth, with close proximity to iconic landmarks such as the Golden Temple, making it a preferred destination for both leisure and business travellers.

Keventers has appointed Shaurya Prabhat as its Chief Executive Officer, marking a new phase of leadership for the heritage brand. He succeeds Agastya Dalmia, who played a key role in bringing the brand back into the spotlight for a new generation of consumers.

An eight-year veteran of the company, Shaurya joined Keventers in 2017 to lead business development when the brand was largely franchise-driven. Over time, he took on wider responsibilities across strategy, operations, marketing, HR, and business excellence, eventually shaping the company’s overall direction.

Before joining Keventers, he worked with The Smart Cube, advising global clients across industries such as retail, banking, pharma, and oil and gas. Academically, he holds a degree from University of London and a master’s from University of Warwick.

Sharing his thoughts on the new role, Shaurya Prabhat said, “I'd like to thank the Board for entrusting me with the responsibility of shaping the company's next phase of growth. What I've learned over eight years is that the mission never really changes: grow the company, grow the brand, and do it with honesty. If you manage your inputs with excellence, the outcomes take care of themselves. I'm extremely excited about the vast opportunities ahead for us.”

As part of his immediate plans, Shaurya is looking to open 70 new outlets over the next year, with a larger goal of significantly scaling the business over the coming years. The brand is also exploring opportunities beyond outlets, including retail, FMCG, quick commerce, and institutional sales, aligning with its broader vision of building a multi-brand food and beverage portfolio.

Keventers is also sharpening its focus on younger consumers, especially Gen Z, by creating products and experiences that connect with their preferences. From menu innovations like waffles and boba to a stronger presence on social media, the brand is adapting to changing consumer behaviour while staying rooted in its legacy.

Commenting on the transition, Agastya Dalmia said, “I have worked alongside Shaurya for over eight years and known him for longer - I have seen how he thinks, how he leads, and how deeply he cares about this brand. He has led almost all significant decisions we have taken over the years and helped us navigate through the most complex of situations – from Covid and restructuring our business model to fundraising and governance. I could not be prouder of what we have built together, and I could not be more confident about what he will build next.”

Founded in 1925, Keventers continues to be one of India’s most recognised food and beverage brands, known for its milkshakes, waffles, and ice creams, with a growing presence across major cities.
