Hotels Q4 Results Preview: RevPAR Growth Sustainability Key, Says Dolat Capital; Lemon Tree Among Top Picks

Dolat Capital finds Mahindra Holidays and Lemon Tree to be well-positioned in the hospitality space, offering risk-reward over the medium term, hence remains top pick.

The hospitality industry is set to achieve its 12th consecutive quarter of low-to mid double-digit RevPAR growth, driven primarily by higher ARRs alongside a modest rise in occupancies, says Dolat Capital. (Photo: Roberto Nickson/Unsplash)

Historically, listed players have done well versus the industry due to their superior brand positioning, pricing power, S&M engine, and execution skillset. However, as the smaller/unorganized/unlisted/presented players catch up we expect listed companies’ performance to be at par/lag industry average.

Dolat Capital Report

The hospitality industry experienced robust growth during FY23-FY25E. Stock prices and valuations broadly capture this optimism. However, maintaining RevPAR growth in FY26 (projected at mid-to-high single-digit) will be crucial for sustaining current positivity, especially as growth starts to moderate on a high base, supply starts catching up, and broader economic uncertainty (both domestic and more importantly global) poses a key risk in our view.

The impact of heatwaves and an extended summer in Q1 FY26 could lead to softer demand, particularly in leisure travel, affecting occupancy rates. While corporate and business travel may provide some stability, transient travel patterns could see a temporary dip.
