Ixigo Shares Rise 13% on Record Q2 Profit and Growth in Hotel Bookings
Ixigo's shares rose over 13% after reporting a record Q2 FY27 net profit of ₹63.42 crore, reversing a loss from the previous year. The profit was partly driven by a partial sale of its stake in Freshbus and strong growth in hotel bookings, which saw a 159% increase in gross transaction value. Revenue grew 13% year-on-year to ₹321 crore, supported by growth across flights, buses, and trains. Despite rising expenses and ongoing investments in technology and hotels, the company achieved its highest-ever profit after tax.
