Joining me today on the call are Ranjit Batra, Chief Executive Officer; Paresh Bafna, Chief Financial Officer; and Shoaib Shariff from the Investor Relations team. We will start off with brief remarks on our business and financial performance and then open the floor for Q&A. Over to you, Ranjit. Ranjit Batra: Good evening, and thank you all for making time to join us today. Let me begin with the external backdrop which shaped this quarter. The West Asia conflict was the single most important external variable for our Maldives portfolio, shipping disruptions through the Straits of Hormuz and pushing crude, jet fuel, and diesel prices sharply upwards for us. April, we saw the first disruption in Maldives inbound tourism and then recovered strongly through May and June, ensuring our Maldives revenue still grew by 5% year-on-year in the quarter. The more material effect was our cost base through a sharp rise in Maldives fuel cost, which I'll address shortly. Coming to India hospitality, in India, business delivered strong quarter yet again. Revenue grew 13% to INR203 crores supported by resilient corporate demand, strong MICE activity, and premium leisure. This led our Pune, Bengaluru, and Goa assets to perform considerably well. India EBITDA grew 16% to INR74 crores. And most importantly, our India margin expanded 36% from 35% even after absorbing higher power and wage costs during this quarter. Page 2 of 14 August 05, 2026 This reflects our operating leverage inherent in the portfolio. Pune in particular continues to validate our long-standing thesis. It's now India's fastest growing GCC hub and very little new or limited supply in hotels, which leaves our top-tier assets structurally well-placed on both rate and occupancy. I would also like to highlight the structural progress we're making on energy costs in India. Around 70% of electricity used by our Pune hotels portfolio already comes from green sources, which insulates us from tariff increase. We have now invested around INR60 crores in captive solar plant with battery storage for our Pune hotels targeting commissioning in Q4 FY27, which will raise our green energy contribution to around 85%. We expect this to reduce our Pune energy bill by close to 45%, a positive impact of 5% to 6% on India EBITDA with a payback of roughly 3 years. I'm proud of the team that structured this, and it has given me confidence and continued improvement of our India hospitality margins. In Maldives, revenue grew 5%, INR218 crores, a resilient outcome given the war-related cancellations early in the quarter and the sharp recovery that followed. The pressure this quarter was on costs, not on demand. EBITDA was INR32 crores, down 32%, almost entirely due to fuel. Diesel prices reached roughly 2.1x pre-war levels, driving a fuel and ancillary costs increase of around INR19 crores. At Raaya, we are increasing solar capacity, taking the resort to about 80% solar with battery backup by April 2027, with further capacity being added at Conrad and Anantara. Together, we expect this to save us around $1.5 million a year, roughly 2.5 percentage of Maldives EBITDA and to protect the portfolio against exactly this kind of diesel shocks in the future. Raaya will be able to generate and operate around 17 hours of solar capacity and will be the first resort in Maldives to do so. Our annuity business remains steadily high margin backbone of the group. Revenue grew 3% to INR128 crores, with EBITDA broadly flat at INR111 crores at 87% margin and committed occupancy holding at 98%. This dependable cash flow is what allows us to keep investing through the cycles, and we recently added Narmada Estates in Pune, which will extend the base further. On growth, the markee addition this quarter, Sahyadri Hills, Wellness Estate, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, the 10th in the world, set out at around 425 acres, roughly 2 to 3 hours from Mumbai and Pune and around 45 minutes from Alibaug. It's an 80-key wellness resort with 33 branded residences alongside, and it takes Ventive firmly into luxury wellness and branded residences, one of the fastest growing segments in global travel. We have acquired it 100% at an equity consideration of around INR281 crores and enterprise value of around INR466 crores, targeting a yield-on-cost above 12%. The acquisition completed in July with occupancy certificate already received. The branded residence sales are designed to release capital early and help us fund the build. And there's an embedded upside in the land bank with unused FSI. Page 3 of 14 August 05, 2026 Our wider pipeline of over 1,700 keys across 8 upcoming hotels remains on track.
