Commenting on the performance, Mr. Ashish Jakhanwala, Chairman & Managing Director, SAMHI Hotels Ltd. said,
“We are pleased to announce results for the period ending 30th September 2025 along with news of the landmark development in Navi Mumbai.
 
During the quarter total revenue growth was ~11.0% with a consol. EBITDA growth of 14.2% over same period last year. With continued growth in EBITDA and reduction in finance cost, we witnessed ~2.8x growth in PBT for the quarter. Accounting for the reinstatement of Navi Mumbai, we are very pleased to report a PAT of ~₹998mn for the quarter. For the first half of FY2026, total revenue growth was 12.0% and EBITDA growth of 16.3% over same period last year. This sets a very strong base for the remaining part of FY2026 and for FY2027.
 
We are very excited about the Navi Mumbai development. This project will redefine, both Navi Mumbai’s skyline and SAMHI’s future with potential to create a 700-room dual branded hotel.  We are happy to contribute to the state’s commitment to make Navi Mumbai a world class city. 
During the quarter, we also signed a long-term variable lease for a large midscale hotel in heart of Financial District in Hyderabad, allowing us to secure an impactful share of the market that continues to outperform.
 
We made good progress on on-going growth projects. By end of December 2025, we would have added about 8% inventory to our portfolio in current year, which will aide performance in Q4-FY2026 and FY2027.  Work on the W-Hyderabad, Westin Bengaluru and other initiatives continue as planned.
 
With all these growth initiatives, same-store growth continuing in range of our forecast (~9%-11% CAGR) and strong free cash from operations, we are confident of SAMHI’s growth and the value it will create for our shareholders.”
