YATRA ONLINE, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR
THE THREE MONTHS AND YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2025
Gurugram, India and New York May 29, 2025— Yatra Online, Inc. (NASDAQ: YTRA) (the “Company”), India’s leading corporate travel services provider and one of India’s leading online travel companies, today announced its unaudited financial and operating results for the three months and year ended March 31, 2025.
“We ended fiscal year 2025 on a strong note delivering revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of INR 2,192.5 million (USD 25.7 million) up 114.0% YoY, driven by the growth in our MICE business and the inorganic contribution from the Globe Travels acquisition. Our Revenue Less Service Cost (“RLSC”) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of INR 1,094.0 million (USD 12.8 million) was up 33.9% YoY. Adjusted EBITDA of INR 90.0 million (USD 1.1 million).
For fiscal year 2025, we reported revenue of INR 7,957.3 million (USD 93.1 million) registering growth of 89.9% YoY. Our fiscal year RLSC of INR 3,915.9 million (USD 45.8 million) was up 17.8% YoY. Our full-year revenue reflects the momentum we’ve built across our Corporate Travel and MICE businesses, which have been pivotal in navigating a competitive landscape. Notably, our profitability metrics underscore our disciplined execution: Adjusted EBITDA for the full year grew 28.3% YoY, reflecting our ability to optimize costs and capitalize on high-growth opportunities.
Our MICE business has emerged as a standout performer, with significant revenue growth and margin expansion in the fourth quarter, building on the strong foundation laid throughout fiscal year 2025. By leveraging our expanded capabilities and Globe Travels’ expertise, we’ve captured a larger share of this high-margin segment, positioning Yatra as a dominant player in India’s MICE market.
While our B2C air ticketing segment faced top-line and margin pressures due to strategic discount adjustments amid intense supplier competition, our diversified revenue mix—particularly the strength in Hotels & Packages and MICE—has effectively mitigated these challenges.
Our Corporate Travel segment continues to be a cornerstone of our success. In the fourth quarter, we onboarded 35 new corporate clients, further expanding our annual billing potential by INR 1,430.0 million (USD 16.7 million) and reinforcing our position as India’s leading corporate travel provider. The integration of Globe Travels, acquired in September 2024, has exceeded expectations, delivering synergies in supplier consolidation, technology adoption, and cross-selling opportunities. These efforts have enhanced our ability to offer seamless, tech-driven solutions to our growing client base.
As part of our ongoing efforts around restructuring, the Company has made strong progress with a viable structure in place. While some hurdles remain, we are actively navigating processes across jurisdictions. The timeline is uncertain due to complexity, but we’re fully committed. This transition is key for Yatra and our shareholders, aligning us with the market and unlocking value. We’ll share updates as we move forward.
As we look ahead to fiscal 2026, we are encouraged by the momentum across our business. Strong corporate client acquisition, continued growth in our MICE segment, and ongoing investment in our proprietary technology platform including AI-powered personalization and booking tools position us well for the next phase of growth.
We are introducing preliminary guidance for FY26, projecting approximately 20% growth in Revenue Less Service Costs (RLSC) and 30% year-over-year growth in Adjusted EBITDA, driven by three pillars: expansion in corporate travel, continued scaling of MICE and Hotels and Packages, and full cost synergies from Globe.
We remain focused on advancing our strategic priorities: scaling high-margin verticals, deepening our technology edge, and creating sustainable long-term value for our stakeholders.
I would like to thank our team for their relentless dedication, our partners for their trust, and our shareholders for their continued support.” – Dhruv Shringi, Co-founder and CEO.

Recent developments
As previously disclosed, the Board of Directors of Yatra Online Limited, the Company’s Indian subsidiary (“Yatra India”), approved a Composite Scheme of Amalgamation (“Scheme”) involving Yatra India (the “Amalgamated Company”) and its six wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Amalgamating Companies”). The Amalgamating Companies and Amalgamated Company previously filed the Scheme with the Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai (“NCLT”), for the requisite approvals. The NCLT delivered an order dated February 07, 2025 allowing the first motion application. . Subsequently, Yatra India has filed the second motion application with NCLT for approval, which is currently pending. The Scheme is subject to additional requisite approvals/consents, as may be required in this regard.
On April 15, 2025, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the period from March 3, 2025 to April 14, 2025, the Company’s ordinary shares had not maintained a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Nasdaq letter does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s ordinary shares from The Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) (the “Compliance Period Rule”), the Company has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until October 13, 2025 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If, at any time during this 180-day period, the closing bid price for the Company’s ordinary shares closes at $1.00 or more per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, as required under the Compliance Period Rule, the Staff will provide written notification to the Company that it complies with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the ordinary shares will continue to be eligible for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the Compliance Date, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify, the Company would have to meet the continued listing requirement for the market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, except for the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the Company would need to provide written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the additional compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its ordinary shares and may, if appropriate, consider available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, which could include seeking to effect a reverse stock split. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, secure a second period of 180 days to regain compliance, or maintain compliance with any of the other Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2024 and subsequently, the Company received three anonymous whistleblower complaints with certain generic allegations of irregularities. The Board of directors appointed an independent committee (comprising of Independent directors) to look into this matter, which had appointed an external law firm to undertake preliminary investigation to ascertain veracity of such allegations. Based on the outcome of the investigation conducted, nothing has emerged indicating any fraud or an adverse impact on the financial statements of the Company and these complaints do not warrant any further action and accordingly stand closed.
The Company’s financial and operating results for the three months and year ended March 31, 2025, include the financial and operating results of Globe All India Services Limited (GAISL) from September 11, 2024, to March 31, 2025. Accordingly, the reported results for three months and year ended March 31, 2025, which are inclusive of the impact of consolidation of GAISL may not be comparable with the reported results for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which exclude the impact of consolidation of GAISL.

Certain Non-IFRS Measures
As certain parts of our Revenue are recognized on a “net” basis and other parts of our Revenue are recognized on a “gross” basis, we evaluate our financial performance based on Adjusted Margin, which is a non-IFRS measure.
We believe that Adjusted Margin provides investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business and more accurately reflects the value addition of the travel services that we provide to our customers. The presentation of this non-IFRS information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Our Adjusted Margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation.
In addition to referring to Adjusted Margin, we also refer to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Profit/(Loss) for the Period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share which are also non-IFRS measures. For our internal management reporting, budgeting and decision-making purposes, including comparing our operating results to that of our competitors, these non-IFRS financial measures exclude employee share-based compensation cost and listing and related expenses. Our non-IFRS financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following:
● | Employee share-based compensation cost - The compensation cost to be recorded is dependent on varying available valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions that companies can use while valuing these expenses especially when adopting IFRS 2 “Share-based Payment”. Thus, the management believes that providing non-IFRS financial measures that exclude such expenses allows investors to make additional comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies. | |
● | Listing and related expenses - These primarily reflect the non-recurring expenses incurred on the Indian IPO process. | |
● | Finance income - These primarily reflect income on the bank deposit. | |
● | Finance cost - These primarily reflect income on the borrowings and interest in lease liability. | |
● | Depreciation and amortization - These primarily reflect depreciation and amortization on tangible and intangible assets. | |
● | Tax expense - These primarily reflect income tax and deferred tax. |
We evaluate the performance of our business after excluding the impact of the above measures and believe it is useful to understand the effects of these items on our results from operations, Profit/(Loss) for the period and Basic and Diluted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. These non-IFRS measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation.
A limitation of using Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Profit/(Loss) for the period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share as against using measures in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB are that these non-IFRS financial measures exclude share-based compensation cost, depreciation and amortization, finance income, finance costs, listing and related expenses, and tax expenses in case of Adjusted EBITDA. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information on the IFRS amounts excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Profit/(Loss) for the Period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share.
