Leela Palaces Hotels & Resorts Limited (formerly Schloss Bangalore Limited) announced its Q1 FY27 earnings, showcasing strong performance across key financial and operational metrics.
The company reported a 17% increase in Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) to ₹13,982, driven by a 10% rise in Average Daily Rate (ADR) to ₹20,722 and a 4% increase in occupancy to 67.5%. This growth was primarily fueled by a 25% surge in domestic room revenue and a 1.4x increase in RevPAR compared to the luxury segment average.
Operating EBITDA saw a significant jump of 41%, reaching ₹143.4 crore from ₹101.4 crore in Q1 FY26. This robust growth in EBITDA was attributed to operating leverage and fee income growth. The company achieved its highest ever Q1 Operating EBITDA margin of 41%.
