Sayaji Hotels (Indore) Q2 FY27 Financial Results
Q2 Net Loss: Rs 4.83 crore | Capital Work-in-Progress: Rs 206.38 crore

What just happened
Sayaji Hotels (Indore) Ltd has released its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. The company reported a net loss of Rs 4.83 crore, a shift from the profit of Rs 0.18 crore recorded in the same quarter last year. Quarterly revenue from operations stood at Rs 19.18 crore, slightly lower than the Rs 21.07 crore reported in Q2 FY26. For the half-year period, the firm recorded a net loss of Rs 3.25 crore.
Why this matters
The company is currently in a phase of aggressive capital expansion. Capital Work-in-Progress (CWIP) has risen sharply to Rs 206.38 crore as of September 2026, up from Rs 111.66 crore at the end of March 2026. This expansion has necessitated additional leverage, with total borrowings increasing to Rs 193.37 crore, compared to Rs 108.73 crore six months prior.
Risks to watch
A primary risk factor remains the ongoing litigation regarding the leasehold land at the company's Indore hotel. The Indore Development Authority (IDA) had previously cancelled the lease in 2017. Although the company secured a stay from the High Court against eviction, the matter is pending before a Division Bench. Additionally, stamp duty liabilities related to property mutation following the demerger remain unadjudicated and unprovided for in the books due to the uncertainty surrounding the land records.
Governance and Updates
The Board has appointed Azhar Yusuf Dhanani as an Additional Director in a Non-Executive, Non-Independent capacity. The company has also initiated a Postal Ballot process for shareholder voting matters.
What to track next
Investors should monitor the progress of the high-intensity capital projects and any developments in the High Court proceedings. The ability of the company to manage its rising debt service obligations while navigating the legal uncertainty of its key asset will be critical to long-term performance.
