Jefferies Report Predicts Moderate Hotel Industry Growth in Third Quarter
India's domestic hotel industry is expected to see moderated growth in revenue per available room (RevPAR) in the third quarter as the base normalizes, according to a Jefferies report. Despite this, a strong wedding calendar in 2027 and major events like BRICS and the Global Fintech Fest are anticipated to sustain healthy demand and growth into the next financial year. September 2026 saw a 19% year-on-year RevPAR increase, driven by higher room rates, occupancy, domestic travel, MICE activity, and a gradual recovery in foreign tourist arrivals.
