Indian Hotels Company Ltd (IHCL) reported a 14.71% rise in consolidated net profit for the quarter ended March 2026, driven by higher revenues across its hospitality, catering and management business segments.


According to a regulatory filing released earlier this week, the Tata Group-owned hospitality company recorded a consolidated net profit of INR 645.43 crore during the fourth quarter of the 2025–26 financial year, compared with INR 562.66 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year.

Revenue from operations during the January–March quarter increased to INR 2,765.29 crore from INR 2,425.14 crore reported a year earlier, reflecting continued growth in hotel performance and associated hospitality services.

The company’s total expenses also rose during the quarter, increasing to INR 2,014.91 crore compared with INR 1,764.26 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year.

The board of directors recommended a dividend of INR 3.25 per share for shareholders, subject to approval at the company’s forthcoming annual general meeting.

Ankur Dalwani, executive vice president and chief financial officer of IHCL, stated that the company registered double-digit revenue growth during the financial year on the back of broad-based operational performance across business verticals.

According to Dalwani, same-store hotels recorded a 9% growth in Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR), while airline and institutional catering operations grew by 16%. He further noted that new business segments reported 25% growth, while management fee income increased by 22% during the fiscal year.

IHCL, India’s largest hospitality company, operates several hotel brands across luxury, upscale and mid-market categories, including the Taj Hotels portfolio. The company has continued expanding its domestic and international presence through owned, managed and franchised properties.

The hospitality sector in India has witnessed sustained growth over recent quarters, supported by rising domestic travel demand, increased business travel activity and continued expansion in leisure tourism. Operators across the organised hospitality segment have reported higher occupancy levels and improved average room rates amid continued travel demand recovery.

IHCL has also been expanding its portfolio through management contracts, new hospitality formats and food and beverage-linked businesses, contributing to diversified revenue streams beyond core hotel operations.
