Oravel Stays Limited, which operates OYO, kicked off FY26 on a strong note with profits more than doubling in the first quarter of the ongoing fiscal year. The report further highlighted that the company achieved an EBITDA of Rs 550 crore during the quarter, while revenues surged 47% year-on-year to Rs 2,019 crore. Its gross booking value (GBV) grew 144% YoY to Rs 7,227 crore, reflecting strong recovery and demand momentum across markets. Alongside the financials, the company’s board has also cleared a 1:1 bonus share issuance for existing shareholders.

The new identity will act as the corporate umbrella housing OYO and its other premium brands such as Belvilla, Palette, Clubhouse, and Sunday Hotels. The Gurugram-based company has also been pushing premiumisation while expanding globally. In FY25, it deepened its footprint in the US through the acquisition of Motel 6 and Studio 6, and scaled its home business under Belvilla, Dancenter, and CheckMyGuest in Europe.
