Expedia has acquired a majority stake in India's top online hotels aggregator TravelGuru for $17 million.

Expedia, which recently launched its India operations, has also retained the option to buy more of TravelGuru in the future, according to sources. The deal is believed to have been signed a few days ago. Full story at contentSutra.com
