About Leela Palaces

Leela Palaces operates in India’s luxury hospitality segment, focusing on high-end properties with strong brand recall. Its asset-light strategy combined with selective ownership allows it to generate superior returns across cycles.

Morgan Stanley expects Leela to outperform peers in Q3FY26 on the back of superior RevPAR growth driven by luxury demand and operational efficiency.

Key Drivers

🔹 Premium luxury positioning.

🔹 Asset management initiatives.

🔹 Strong demand in top cities.

The brokerage has raised EPS estimates by 3–10 percent over FY26–28 while trimming valuation multiples in line with sector de-rating.
