India Tourism Development Corporation has reported a strong financial performance for FY 2025-26, registering a 14 percent increase in Profit Before Tax compared to the previous financial year, despite ongoing geopolitical challenges impacting global travel and hospitality markets.
The public sector undertaking under the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, announced that the growth was driven by enhanced operational efficiencies, strategic initiatives across its business verticals and continued focus on service excellence.
ITDC also declared a dividend of ₹22.02 crore to the Government of India.
Commenting on the performance, Managing Director Ms. Mugdha Sinha said the results reflect ITDC’s continued focus on strengthening services while building on the trust and legacy associated with the organisation.
During the financial year, ITDC developed three major operational manuals covering procurement of goods and services, Sound and Light shows, and general operational clauses, aimed at improving transparency, standardisation and institutional governance.
The corporation also accelerated its digital transformation initiatives during the year, introducing AI-based solutions to improve operational agility, business planning and customer experience across its various hospitality and tourism verticals.
FY 2025-26 also marked two major milestones for the organisation, with ITDC celebrating 60 years of its legacy and The Ashok completing 70 years as one of India’s iconic hospitality landmarks.
ITDC stated that its future focus will remain on operational excellence, data-driven decision making, sustainability and creating long-term value for stakeholders while continuing to strengthen its contribution to India’s tourism sector.
