Operates hotels in India under brands including The Orchid, IRA by Orchid, Lotus Resorts and heritage properties, running 23 properties with 1,900-plus keys across 9 states. Revenue of INR 385.63 crore in FY26 came entirely from hospitality operations — room revenue, food and beverage, and banqueting — serving business travellers, leisure guests, wedding clients, MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences, exhibitions) segments and pilgrimage visitors. The portfolio delivered an average room rate (ARR) of INR 6,051 and 57% occupancy in FY26, with an EBITDA margin of 25.1%. Around 250-260 new keys were added in FY26, creating an EBITDA drag of about INR 10 crore that management expects to recover as these properties mature. A pipeline of approximately 600 keys spans 7 new projects, including the 50-room IRA by Orchid in Bhavnagar (opened June 2026) and a 63-room luxury Orchid in Dwarka signed for December 2026 opening. The IRA Mumbai lease is exiting, removing about INR 50 crore of FY27 revenue but adding INR 1-2 crore to EBITDA. Employee costs at 23.2% of revenue are the largest named operating cost, with a structural step-up of about INR 4 crore per year from the new wage code. The company sits in a net cash position with INR 86 crore of debt at 9.75% and INR 35-40 crore of cash reserves. AR · MarketPing reader · 2026-08-02

This document is a statistical summary of publicly filed information and market data, prepared by software from primary sources: SEBI results XBRL filed with BSE and NSE, LODR disclosures, shareholding patterns, exchange price data. It contains no research recommendation, no price target and no opinion on the merits of any security, and is not a research report within the meaning of the SEBI (Research Analysts) Regulations, 2014, Regulation 2(1)(w)(vii). Financial statements are as filed (consolidated where the company files consolidated results). Ratios are computed over filed lines. Where a figure is unavailable the table shows a dash rather than an estimate. The business brief is written by MarketPing's reader from the annual report and checked against it; no figure in a table was generated by a model.
