The Leela Palaces Hotels & Resorts reported record FY26 results. Full-year operating revenue grew 15% to ₹15,273 million, operating EBITDA rose 19% to ₹7,729 million, and operating EBITDA margin expanded 167 basis points to 49%. Profit after tax surged roughly 8.5 times to ₹4,030 million from ₹477 million in FY25, reflecting strong operating leverage. Same-store RevPAR for the five owned palace hotels grew 14% to ₹17,460, with average daily rate up 13% to ₹25,375 and occupancy improving one percentage point to 69%, while the company outperformed the India luxury segment by about 2.3x. Net debt was cut roughly in half to ₹12,707 million, improving net debt to EBITDA from 3.7x to 1.6x, alongside four new property additions taking the portfolio to 15 operational hotels with 9 more in the pipeline.
Strong, broad-based growth with margin expansion, a multi-fold jump in profits, and rapid deleveraging are clearly positive for shareholders and likely to support the stock. The accelerating pipeline and pricing power signal continued momentum heading into FY27.
