“While our revenue, EBITDA and profit after tax performance was robust, we are equally encouraged by the operational performance, including a remarkable 14% growth in RevPAR and an industry-leading 90% occupancy rate. This performance has been driven through a combination of our strategic and growth initiatives alongside favorable industry trends,” she said.

We believe that this strong financial position will enable us to more actively pursue our growth plans and strengthen our operating position in the sector,” she added.The five new hotels added to its portfolio include Zone by THE Park Gopalpur, Zone by THE Park Dimapur, Zone Connect Mussoorie, Zone Connect Indore, and Zone Connect Udaipur.
