YC Deveshwar's climb to corporate success The biggest turning point for this entrepreneurial career professional however came in 1984 when he joined ITC's board of directors, taking charge of Welcomgroup (Hotel Division) as its chairman. Building flagship hotels in Delhi and Mumbai, he used his wide social network to make the hotel chain the place for happening people.
