SAMHI Hotels Ltd reported a 29.6 per cent year-on-year rise in net profit to ₹24.9 crore for the first quarter of FY27 ended June 30, 2026, even as the stock fell nearly 2.6 per cent on Tuesday to trade at ₹176.26 on the NSE.
The New Delhi-based hotel company posted total income of ₹308.3 crore for Q1 FY27, up 7.3 per cent from ₹287.3 crore in the same quarter last year. On a comparable basis, excluding one-time items, total income grew 10.8 per cent year-on-year. Consolidated EBITDA stood at ₹101.3 crore, up 12.1 per cent on a comparable basis, though down 4.1 per cent on a reported basis due to a GST input tax credit impact of approximately ₹9.2 crore.
Revenue per available room (RevPAR) rose 9.6 per cent year-on-year to ₹5,219, on a same-store basis, while occupancy improved to approximately 79.3 per cent from 74.2 per cent in Q1 FY26. Profit before tax came in at ₹32.7 crore, up 41.8 per cent from ₹23.1 crore a year ago.
The company’s effective interest rate declined to 7.8 per cent, approximately 300 basis points lower than at the time of its IPO in September 2023. Net debt stood at ₹1,492.8 crore as of June 30, 2026, with a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.2x.
MD & CEO Ashish Jakhanwala noted that disruptions to international travel from the West Asia conflict affected the quarter, but domestic corporate travel and MICE demand offset the impact.
SAMHI operates 31 hotels with 4,899 keys across 13 Indian cities, with management arrangements with Marriott, IHG, and Hyatt. The company has indicated plans to raise its upscale inventory share from approximately 41 per cent currently to 60 per cent by FY2030. The stock is down nearly 19 per cent over the past year against the NSE as of Tuesday morning.
