Reports Moderate Revenue Growth in Q3 FY2026; Profit Declines Amid Higher Costs"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>Yatra Online Inc., (NSE: YTRA) one of India\u2019s prominent online travel aggregators, reported steady year-on-year growth for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, though profitability softened as operating expenses increased and the domestic aviation sector faced disruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company posted consolidated operating revenue of about \u20b9256.8 crore for the quarter, representing a 9% rise from \u20b9235.2 crore in the same period last year. Including other income of roughly \u20b94.8 crore, total income stood at approximately \u20b9261.5 crore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the top-line improvement, revenue declined sequentially by 27% from \u20b9350.8 crore recorded in the preceding quarter, suggesting a moderation in travel demand or booking momentum compared with earlier months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Margin Expansion Signals Operational Progress<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A notable highlight was the improvement in profitability metrics at the operating level. Revenue less service cost (RLSC)\u2014a measure the company uses as gross margin\u2014rose 23% year-on-year to \u20b9127.7 crore from \u20b9104.1 crore. Meanwhile, gross margin edged up to 5.9% from 5.8% a year earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) increased sharply by 64% to \u20b923.9 crore, with EBITDA margin expanding to 18.7% from 14% in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The improvement in margins indicates ongoing operational efficiencies and a potentially stronger mix of higher-margin services, even as broader industry conditions remained uneven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Profit Slips on Rising Expenditure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Profit after tax came in at approximately \u20b98.3 crore, down 17% from \u20b910 crore reported in the year-ago quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Financial data show that overall expenses climbed to around \u20b9249 crore during the quarter, with service costs accounting for roughly 52% of total expenditure. Employee benefits were about \u20b943 crore, while spending on marketing, legal, information technology, and other operational areas added to the cost base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The higher expenditure weighed on net earnings even as the company continued to scale operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nine-Month Performance Reflects Stronger Momentum<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the nine-month period of FY2026, Yatra reported operating revenue of \u20b9817 crore, marking a 43% increase compared with \u20b9572 crore in the corresponding period a year earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This broader growth trajectory suggests sustained demand across travel categories, positioning the company for continued expansion despite quarter-to-quarter volatility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Industry Context and Outlook<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yatra\u2019s latest results highlight a balance between growth and margin management in a competitive online travel market. The company noted that performance occurred \u201cdespite disruptions in the domestic aviation sector,\u201d underscoring the resilience of travel demand even amid sector-specific challenges. While profit moderated during the quarter, the combination of rising operating revenue, expanding EBITDA margins, and improving gross margin metrics points to underlying operational strength. The company\u2019s ability to manage costs while sustaining revenue growth will likely remain a key factor shaping its financial trajectory in the coming quarters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yatra Online Inc., (NSE: YTRA) one of India\u2019s prominent online travel aggregators, reported steady year-on-year growth for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, though profitability softened as operating expenses increased and the domestic aviation sector faced disruptions.
