Immoral traffic

First of all I don't know if this situation comes under Immoral Traffic.

A Man & Woman NOT Married have consensual s*x in a reputed hotel. Is it punishable under any law in India ? Can the hotel do something against it ?

Yes and No.

 

Depends on how the same is viewed. It would be immoral trafficking, if it is a public area. And public area as defined  places of public religious worship, educational institutions, hostels, hospitals.

So, I guess that means Hotels too.

But if the Girl is not a prostitute count ? i.e she's not doing it for Cash.

Consensual s*x between two or more adults in privacy of room in hotel is no crime. This question has been discussed in detail this thread https://www.lawyersclubindia.com/forum/Re-live-in-with-my-boyfriend-26644.asp

But in this case, the police would show that the lady was charging and produce some witness too. The matter would need to be fought on merits.
