Dolat Capital Report

We initiate coverage on Lemon Tree Hotels Ltd. as a post-Covid-19 recovery play. The worst phase for the hotel industry is likely behind.

Revival may be gradual over 18-24 months to hit the historic 70-75% occupancies and Rs 4,000-plus average room rate for Lemon Tree Hotels.

But, operating performance to improve from hereon and cost rationalization benefits may be structural.

Low-inventory supply and consolidation are likely to be other benefits.

Lemon Tree Hotels is a leading hotel chain in mid-market segment (2.5 to 4-star) with healthy approximately 12% market share as of FY19.

Market share is set to expand to approximately 20% by FY23E.

Geographic diversification and improving mix of keys in demand dense higher average room rate markets to drive strong growth.
