Viceroy Hotels reported weak Q1 FY26 results with revenue from operations falling about 6% year-on-year to Rs 2,536.95 lakhs (vs Rs 2,709.59 lakhs in Q1 FY25). Profit before tax dropped sharply to Rs 37.99 lakhs from Rs 194.57 lakhs, and the company swung to a net loss of Rs 302.32 lakhs (vs profit of Rs 171.75 lakhs) primarily due to a steep deferred tax charge of Rs 340.31 lakhs. Diluted EPS turned negative at Rs (0.04). The board also accepted the resignation of statutory auditor Deva & Co (citing internal resource reallocation) and appointed MSKC & Associates LLP as the new statutory auditor for a five-year term, subject to shareholder approval. The 60th AGM is scheduled for September 8, 2025, and the company confirmed no deviation in use of rights issue proceeds, with Rs 471.61 lakhs still unutilized out of the Rs 4,951.58 lakhs raised.
Shareholders should note the quarter swung to a loss on weaker revenue and a large deferred tax hit, while the mid-tenure auditor change adds governance scrutiny despite being attributed to routine firm-level reasons. The stock may see short-term pressure given the weak earnings print, though the auditor transition appears procedural.
