SAMHI Hotels Leadership Insights

Commenting on the performance, Ashish Jakhanwala, Chairman & Managing Director, SAMHI Hotels Ltd., said, “We are pleased to announce results for the period ending 30th June 2025. Despite a short period of interruption due to geopolitical issues, we continue to see good growth across our portfolio. This sets a strong base for the future. Total revenue growth was ~13.0% with a consolidated EBITDA growth of 18.6% over the same period last year, despite a moderate growth during the month of May. With strong growth in EBITDA and reduction in finance cost, we witnessed ~4.5x growth in PAT for the quarter. Post the recently concluded transaction with GIC, we have strengthened our balance sheet, allowing us to focus on growth. With a strong pipeline of assets under rebranding and/or completion, we are excited about the overall prospects of our company.”

He also added, “We estimate a strong investible surplus that will allow us to pursue value-accretive M&A and continued expansion through highly capital-efficient variable leases. We have also entered into an agreement to sell Caspia Hotel, New Delhi, in line with our stated strategy of capital recycling to improve returns for our shareholders. Since 2023, we have concluded over ₹2.1 bn of asset sales at an average EV/EBITDA multiple of ~20x and an incremental ~₹7.5 bn of minority dilution in favor of GIC. At the same time, we have invested or committed to invest ₹10.0 bn+ in new assets and rebranding, which will deliver a material premium in terms of returns. We remain committed to disciplined growth, operational excellence, and clear communication, and are excited about the prospects for SAMHI.”
