EaseMyTrip posts ₹15.4 crore net loss in Q4 FY26, full-year loss hits ₹47.5 crore
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Online travel aggregator EaseMyTrip swung to a consolidated net loss of ₹15.4 crore in Q4 FY26 (January–March 2026), reversing a profit of ₹13.9 crore in the same quarter a year earlier. The result marks a sharp deterioration from the ₹3.4 crore profit the company had posted in Q3 FY26, as surging expenses outpaced modest revenue gains.
Revenue Trend
Revenue from operations rose 8.9 per cent year-on-year to ₹151.9 crore in Q4 FY26, up from ₹139.5 crore in Q4 FY25. On a sequential basis, however, growth was virtually flat — inching up just 0.1 per cent from ₹151.6 crore in Q3 FY26. Including other income of ₹14 crore, total income for the quarter stood at ₹166 crore.
Expense Surge Dents Profitability
Total expenses climbed 38.6 per cent year-on-year and 18.4 per cent quarter-on-quarter to ₹153.2 crore in Q4 FY26, according to the company's regulatory filing. The sharp cost escalation was the primary driver behind the quarterly loss, compressing margins despite the revenue uptick.
Full-Year FY26 Performance
For the full financial year FY26, EaseMyTrip reported a net loss of ₹47.5 crore, a steep reversal from a profit of ₹108.6 crore in FY25. Annual revenue from operations also declined 8.8 per cent to ₹535.7 crore from ₹587.3 crore in the previous fiscal. EBITDA fell sharply by over 85.8 per cent year-on-year to ₹22.9 crore, with the EBITDA margin narrowing dramatically to 4 per cent from 26.7 per cent in FY25. The company did not disclose EBITDA figures for the March quarter separately.
Segment Performance: Hotels Surge, Air Ticketing Slips
EaseMyTrip's air ticketing segment — its largest revenue contributor — saw revenue fall 14.7 per cent year-on-year to ₹80 crore in Q4 FY26 from ₹93.9 crore in Q4 FY25. In contrast, the hotels and holiday packages business delivered standout growth, with revenue surging nearly 148 per cent to ₹57.8 crore from just ₹23.3 crore a year ago. Revenue from other services declined 36.9 per cent to ₹14.1 crore from ₹22.3 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.
What to Watch
The divergence between a declining air ticketing business and a fast-growing hotels segment signals a potential strategic pivot for EaseMyTrip. Whether the company can scale its non-ticketing verticals fast enough to offset cost pressures — and return to profitability — will be the key question heading into FY27.
