Q1FY27 margin came with limited support from other income
Revenue of Rs 58.96 cr translated into an operating margin of 6.93%, while expenses were Rs 54.87 cr. Other income was Rs 0.31 cr, so reported profit was primarily determined by operations, interest and depreciation rather than non-operating income. Tax of Rs 0.36 cr was applied at a 16.58% rate.
No quarter-on-quarter or year-on-year trend is available
The filing provides no sequential or year-on-year comparison, so the movement in revenue, costs and margin cannot be assessed against an earlier quarter. HILTON filed these standalone results after market close on 14 August 2026.
