Juniper Hotels share price climbed over 4% on Wednesday after the company posted a strong performance for the December quarter (Q3 FY26). The rally came as the company reported a sharp rise in profit and strong operating growth, supported by healthy travel demand and stable economic conditions.
The stock was trading at ₹266.64 on the NSE, up 4.65% as of 2:04 PM.
Juniper Hotels reported a net profit of ₹65.4 crore for Q3 FY26, more than doubling from ₹32.5 crore in the same quarter last year.
The 101% year-on-year growth in profit reflects stronger demand, better pricing, and improved operating efficiency during the quarter.
The company also delivered healthy growth on the revenue front.
Revenue rose 16.8% to ₹295 crore, compared to ₹252.5 crore in the year-ago period. This suggests continued strength in travel and hospitality demand during the December quarter.
Juniper Hotels also reported a sharp improvement in operating performance.
EBITDA increased 37.3% to ₹127.4 crore, compared with ₹92.8 crore a year earlier.
Alongside this, the company’s EBITDA margin expanded by 640 basis points to 43.2%, up from 36.8% in Q3 FY25. This margin expansion highlights strong operating leverage, likely supported by higher occupancy, improved room rates, and better cost control.
Juniper Hotels also indicated that it achieved its strongest-ever monthly performance in Gross Hotel Margin (GHM) in November, marking a record-breaking result.
This performance points to improved profitability at the hotel level, which helped strengthen overall quarterly results.
For the short term, the company linked its growth to rising disposable incomes and expanding travel infrastructure.
Over the longer term, Juniper Hotels highlighted its presence in key markets such as Delhi and Mumbai, which contribute 76% of its total hotel revenue. This concentration in high-demand markets may continue to support stable growth, especially during peak travel periods.
