Q&A highlights

Management's answers to analyst questions, in Parakho's words rather than a transcript. Each row names who answered and carries the verbatim quote it was drawn from.

Management said Q1 FY27 lacks the high base of Q4 FY26 and expects growth to show up, while noting substitution effects between international and domestic travel and towards buses/trains when flight fares rise.

Answered by Aloke Bajpai

Asked by Pankaj Mehendiratta: Can you quantify resilient growth 50 days into Q1 FY27, and how does macro/oil inflation historically impact ixigo's growth and margins?

p. 12
Therefore, buses is the biggest beneficiary of that growth, which you also saw last quarter, right?

Aloke Bajpai, page 12 of the filed PDF · View the filing

Management said it is too early to quantify financial impact but early customer feedback and metrics are positive.

Answered by Rajnish Kumar

Asked by Pankaj Mehendiratta: How should benefits of ixigo NEXT show up in financials, revenue growth or lower costs?

p. 13
I think it will be too premature and too early to talk about the impact on financials of ixigo NEXT.

Rajnish Kumar, page 13 of the filed PDF · View the filing

Management said outbound was previously called out at over 20% of flights GTV and they don't expect material change, though volumes were more impacted internationally while fares rose.

Answered by Aloke Bajpai

Asked by Swapnil: What percentage of the air business is outbound-focused and at risk from travel curbs?

p. 14
I think for the previous quarter, we have called this out in Q3 that we were at more than 20% of GTV in that quarter on -- for the flights business, the more than 20% was actually outbound.

Aloke Bajpai, page 14 of the filed PDF · View the filing

Management declined to give explicit multiple-of-industry guidance but pointed to historical outperformance versus the OTA bus industry.

Answered by Saurabh Singh

Asked by Swapnil: What does 'grow securely' mean for the bus segment going forward?

p. 15
Swapnil, you're trying to give us a guidance again. We won't. But we should...

Management confirmed the capitalized costs relate to AI infrastructure, not hotels, and are amortized over 5 years.

Answered by Saurabh Singh

Asked by Swapnil: Are the capitalized costs related to AI investments or the hotels business?

p. 16
So, it is AI. What we've done is we've capitalized a portion of the core usable AI investment, which is related to building the foundational infrastructure orchestration layer and platform capabilities that we expect to deploy across the multiple use cases within the OTA ecosystem.

Management said they focus on absolute contribution and EBITDA rupee growth rather than fixed margin percentages, noting hotels investment is eating into some operating leverage.

Answered by Aloke Bajpai

Asked by Anmol Garg: Should contribution margin and EBITDA margin be expected to remain stable or increase given technology cost growth?

p. 19
Net-net, I think what we can expect, and remember, EBITDA level, there is one more thing.

Aloke Bajpai, page 19 of the filed PDF · View the filing

Management explained experimental/implemented costs pass through as tech or employee cost, while infrastructure-building costs are capitalized.

Answered by Saurabh Singh

Asked by Prateek Kumar: Can you quantify the cost of the ixigo NEXT project and how it is recognized in financial statements?

p. 20
So look, there are two parts of ixigo NEXT, and I think it's the answer that we talked with, that we just had right now.

Management said they have made progress on inventory onboarding via the HELLO Extranet product but have not yet reached the point of separate disclosure.

Answered by Rajnish Kumar

Asked by Prateek Kumar: What is the progress on product-market fit for the hotels segment?

p. 21
But the good news is that like we've actually started making progress on the inventory side.

Rajnish Kumar, page 21 of the filed PDF · View the filing

Management said they still have a couple of years of runway for using the funds and do not want to rush deployment, with some already used for AI investment and the Trenes acquisition.

Answered by Saurabh Singh

Asked by Prateek Kumar: What progress has been made on deploying the Prosus fundraise proceeds?

p. 22
We have time right now as in timelines are, we've still got a couple of years left for that.

Risks flagged

Middle East situation and air corridor disruption affecting travel sentiment

Regulatory and policy changes in train ticketing reducing availability

p. 5
These policy measures, combined with the supply constraints during peak travel periods, which were particularly acute on the second seater or 2S side and have impacted overall ticket availability across the ecosystem, have naturally led to some demand shifting towards buses and flights.

Aloke Bajpai, page 5 of the filed PDF · View the filing

High base effect from prior year Maha Kumbh surge impacting comparisons

p. 4
The quarter also faced a particularly high base due to elevated Kumbh-related demand and additional special train supply last year, especially across North India.

Aloke Bajpai, page 4 of the filed PDF · View the filing

Rising international flight fares and route curtailment affecting demand

p. 12
International continues to be affected somewhat, right, because of the Middle East situation as well as the fares, right? I mean the fares have gone up significantly on many routes.
