The initiative is currently active in Ahmedabad and Mumbai. It will be also rolled out in New Delhi soon.

Expanding their outreach in response to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, IHCL extends its meals initiative. In 2008, the Taj Group had created the Taj Public Service Welfare Trust (TPSWT) to provide relief and support to victims of natural or man-made disasters. 

As a part of the initiative, TPSWT has delivered over 50,000 meals to date in Mumbai and Ahmedabad.
