Thomas Cook India Limited has announced a resilient performance for the first quarter of FY27, with notable growth in its Financial Services and Leisure Hospitality sectors. The company managed to maintain stability in Travel Services despite facing significant geopolitical and business challenges, particularly affecting its GCC-based subsidiaries due to the ongoing West Asia conflict.

The Financial Services segment saw a 6% year-on-year increase in revenue from operations, with retail turnover growing by 8%. The company's Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) also rose by 8%, maintaining a margin of 45.3%. In Leisure Hospitality, which includes Sterling Holidays and Nature Trails, revenue grew by 19% year-on-year, with EBIT increasing by 28% and margins at 32.4%.

However, the consolidated total income for Q1 FY27 was down by 12%, standing at Rs. 21,530 million, whilst consolidated profit before tax (PBT) decreased by 21% to Rs. 885 million. Excluding the impact of its GCC-based subsidiaries, the group registered an 8% growth in EBIT.

Managing Director and CEO Mahesh Iyer commented, “The first quarter of FY27 was characterised by a highly volatile operating environment. The impact was particularly severe on our GCC-based subsidiaries. The Group delivered a resilient performance for Q1 FY27 despite the challenging environment.”

Looking ahead, Thomas Cook India remains cautiously optimistic, focusing on prudent financial management and operational excellence to drive sustainable growth. The company continues to strengthen its financial position, with cash and short-term investments increasing to Rs. 26,488 million as of 30 June 2026
