Positive momentum in room rates, effective portfolio management, and disciplined execution continue to reinforce our leadership in the hospitality sector.

We are pleased to announce the completion of our strategic partnership with GIC, a globally respected long-term investor. Together, we have launched a dedicated Upscale+ hotel investment platform—an important milestone that speaks to the strength of our operating model, the quality of our assets, and our capability to execute value-accretive strategies at scale. The initial seed portfolio of over 1,000 rooms in key commercial hubs like Bengaluru and Pune underscores our commitment to high-demand, high-barrier-to-entry markets. 

Post the GIC deal, our Net Debt to EBITDA stands at 3.2x, enabling us to fund growth efficiently while maintaining financial discipline. 

Looking ahead, we remain focused on scaling efficiently, strengthening margins, and enhancing shareholder value. With a future-ready platform, strong institutional backing, and a clear roadmap for growth, we are confident in our ability to continue delivering strong, sustained returns for our stakeholders.”
