ITC Hotels Ltd. reported its highest-ever quarterly revenue of ₹1,017 crore in Q4 FY25, up 17% year-on-year, while net profit rose 44% to ₹264 crore, driven by strong room demand, robust food & beverage sales, and improved operating efficiency. EBITDA margin for the quarter expanded by 350 basis points to 40%, marking the company’s best performance since its demerger from ITC Ltd. earlier this year.

The result comes amid a buoyant macroeconomic environment in India, which continues to stand out globally for its growth resilience. As per the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MOSPI), India’s real GDP is estimated to have grown by 6.5% in FY25, with similar momentum expected in FY26. Factors such as rapid urbanisation, favourable demographics, rising consumption, and growth in the services sector have created fertile ground for the hospitality industry to flourish.

“The favourable economic outlook, steady domestic demand and government-led infrastructure push continue to augur well for the sector,” the company said in its statement. 

For the full financial year, the company posted revenues of ₹3,333 crore and profit after tax of ₹698 crore. The strong showing reflects rising consumer demand, event-led hospitality spending, and higher average daily rates (ADRs), which touched ₹15,000 in Q4. Occupancy stood at 79%, pushing RevPAR up by 17%. On a full-year basis, EBITDA margins expanded to 36%, supported by higher room yields, improved F&B contribution, and operating leverage. 

“Room revenues sustained a strong growth trajectory driven by performance across segments including retail, contracted, weddings and crew,” the company said. Notably, demand for hotel rooms in India is expected to outpace supply over the coming years, while foreign tourist arrivals—still 12% below pre-COVID levels—present a further growth lever. Food and beverage revenue grew 12% in Q4, supported by weddings and event catering, as well as a refresh of key outlets.

ITC Hotels—now operating over 140 properties and 13,300 rooms across six brands—has leaned into an asset-light strategy. Of the 54 hotels signed and 30 opened over the past two years, a large portion came through management and franchising contracts. In the pipeline are now 50 hotels with over 4,500 keys and aims to scale to 220 hotels with 20,000 keys by 2030.
