Commenting on the performance, Mr. Ashish Jakhanwala, Chairman & Managing Director, SAMHI Hotels Ltd. said, “We are pleased to announce results for the quarter and nine months ending 31st December 2025, along with key developments across our portfolio. Our operating performance continued to be resilient, with same-store RevPAR growth of ~13.3% YoY despite the disruptions caused by a crisis at India’s largest carrier airline in December 2025. During the quarter, total revenue growth was ~16.2% YoY with a consol. EBITDA growth of 19.2% over the same period last year, before accounting for the impact of new GST regulations, indicating strong flow-through. The new GST regulations, removing input tax credit for hotels with rates less than Rs. 7,500 has resulted in EBIDTA growth moderating to 13.2% YoY. While GST changes had a near-term impact on margins, the overall reduction is expected to structurally support demand over the long term. With continued growth in EBITDA and a reduction in finance costs, we witnessed ~2.5x growth in PBT for the quarter. We are pleased to report a PAT of ~ Rs. 481mn for the quarter, which is 111.3% growth over the same period last year. For the nine months of FY2026, total revenue growth was 13.5% and consolidated. EBITDA growth of 15.2% over the same period last year. With this, we set a strong foundation for the performance in the remainder of FY2026 and position ourselves for sustained growth in FY2027. Importantly, we generated ~ Rs. 300 crores of surplus cash on a trailing twelve-month basis, reinforcing our financial strength and providing adequate internal accruals to fund ongoing and planned growth initiatives as envisaged. We made significant progress on the ongoing growth projects during the quarter. Work on the W-Hyderabad, Westin Bengaluru and other initiatives continues to execute as planned. Backed with a robust pipeline of growth initiatives, sustained same-store growth within our forecast (~9%-11% CAGR) and strong free cash generation from operations, we are confident of SAMHI’s growth trajectory and its ability to sustainably compound long-term value for our shareholders”
