Indian Hotels has reported 3QFY12 standalone results which reflect domestic business only. Though revenue beats expectation of stock analysts, margins are lower than expectations.
Revenue for 3QFY12 stands at Rs.530 crore. This is an increment of 9% yoy and 41% qoq. EBITDA is at 28% versus 15% in 2QFY12 and 30% in 2QFY11. Stock market analysts were expecting of EBITDA margin was 32%.
Lower EBITDA margin was due to higher license fees and increased staffing costs. Net debt of the company increased from Rs.3400 crore to Rs.3600 crore in 2QFY12.
