Prosus raises Ixigo stake by 5% via secondary transaction The development comes soon after Prosus’s investment of Rs 1,295.56 crore (approximately $146 million) in Ixigo for a 10.1% stake on a fully diluted basis. MIH Investments One B.V., a Prosus company, has increased its stake to 15% in Le Travenues Technology Limited, the parent of travel platform Ixigo. According to a disclosure by Prosus, it acquired the stake through an off-market transaction. As per sources, Prosus has purchased 5.06% of fully diluted stake from Peak XV (3.16%) and Elevation (1.9%). Peak XV declined to comment on the story while queries sent to Elevation, Ixigo, and Prosus did not elicit a response until publication of the story. Prosus will reportedly pay another Rs 620–660 crore to acquire an additional stake through a secondary deal. With this transaction, Prosus’s total holding in the Gurugram-based travel tech platform is expected to rise to around 15%. The move aligns with the investor’s strategy to deepen its presence in India. The investment firm aims to expand its India portfolio to about $50 billion over the next few years through a mix of investments and acquisitions. On the financial front, Ixigo’s operating revenue jumped 72.5% to Rs 314 crore in Q1 FY26 from Rs 182 crore in the same quarter last year. The company’s net profit also rose 27% to Rs 19 crore in Q1 FY26, compared to Rs 15 crore in Q1 FY25.
