As FY25 closes, SAMHI Hotels Limited has delivered a standout performance, reflecting its strategic focus on high-growth markets, disciplined execution, and asset quality. The company reported a 16.5% YoY increase in RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room), robust Asset EBITDA growth of 21.2%, and a sharp improvement in profitability with PAT reaching INR 855 Mn for the year, compared to a loss in FY24.
For Q4 FY25, SAMHI reported a 20.6% YoY rise in RevPAR to INR5,958, with occupancy climbing to 75%. Asset Income grew by 13.6% YoY, while Asset EBITDA increased by 17.7%, underscoring operational efficiencies and demand recovery across key commercial hubs.
The fiscal year saw consistent gains in both revenue and margins. Full-year occupancy stood at 74%, with Asset Income and Asset EBITDA growing by 17.7% and 21.2%, respectively. Same-store growth and strategic acquisitions, including the ACIC and Trinity portfolios, contributed significantly to this momentum.
The year marked a pivotal moment with the completion of a strategic partnership with GIC, a global institutional investor. Together, they launched an upscale hotel investment platform, initially seeded with 1,000+ rooms in high-demand cities like Bengaluru and Pune. Post-GIC transaction, SAMHI reduced its net debt to EBITDA ratio to 3.2x, strengthening its financial position for future expansion.
Ashish Jakhanwala, Chairman & Managing Director of SAMHI Hotels, emphasized the transformative year. “FY25 showcases our ability to execute value-accretive strategies while strengthening our leadership in the hospitality sector. The GIC partnership is a testament to the strength of our operating model and asset quality. With reduced leverage and a clear growth roadmap, we are poised for sustained success.”
