ITC Hotels reported a marginal 0.31% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) decline in net profit for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025-26. The company posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 133.29 crore in Q2 FY26, slightly lower than Rs 133.71 crore recorded in Q1 FY26.
Despite the slight QoQ dip, the company recorded a strong year-on-year (YoY) growth of 76%, with Q2 FY25 profits at Rs 76.6 crore. This reflects the sustained recovery and growth in the hospitality sector post-pandemic.
Revenue Growth and Performance
The company’s consolidated revenue for Q2 FY26 rose to Rs 832 crore, marking a 2.8% YoY growth from Rs 808 crore in the same quarter last fiscal. The incremental revenue growth was driven by higher occupancy rates and improved food and beverage sales across ITC Hotels’ portfolio.
EBITDA and Margins Improve
ITC Hotels also reported a strong EBITDA of Rs 245.7 crore, up 15.7% YoY from Rs 212.4 crore in Q2 FY25. The EBITDA margin improved by 200 basis points to 29.3%, compared to 27.3% in the corresponding quarter last year. Analysts noted that the improved operational efficiency and cost control measures contributed to the margin expansion.
Leadership Update
In addition to the financial results, ITC Hotels announced a leadership promotion, approving Sudhir Gupta’s elevation to Vice President – Procurement. This move aims to strengthen the company’s supply chain and operational efficiency across its hotel network.
Overall, ITC Hotels’ Q2 FY26 performance highlights steady revenue growth, improved margins, and strong YoY profit expansion, reflecting resilience and strategic focus in the competitive hospitality sector.
