How has Hotels moved against NIFTY 500?

Hotels, equal-weighted, based at 200 NIFTY 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of 22 of its 24 companies — the 2 with too short a price record are ranked in the scorecard but cannot sit in this line. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the sector taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

03 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Hotels outperforming NIFTY 500?

Hotels has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.2% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a lead of 7%. 10 of 23 covered companies currently beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Oriental Hotels Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +24.4%. Readings are as of 2026-08-22.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

Hotels has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.2% over 52 weeks and 7% over 13 weeks. 10 of 23 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 8 of 23 beat the sector itself. Indian Hotels Co Ltd leads with revenue of ₹9,987 crore, based on 24 of 24 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Chalet Hotels Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 94% evidence confidence.
EIH Ltd looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
Oriental Hotels Ltd has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action

Leela Palaces Hotels & Resorts Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Hotels at +32%. Asian Hotels (West) Ltd leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +35.5%. 10 of 23 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-09-11.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and NIFTY 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Hotels — the story behind the numbers

This is the written read behind the Hotels figures above — what is actually happening in the sector, in words, with the evidence each claim rests on. It is dated 22 Aug 2026. It also states what would change this read.

How old this read is: This read comes from our fortnightly sector read dated 22 Aug 2026, so the words here and the numbers above them cover the same few weeks.

What would change this read

If the September and December 2026 quarters both hold aggregate operating margin at or above the same quarter a year earlier — reversing the 32.4% to 31.78% slip — while sales growth re-accelerates above 10% year on year from the current 5.2%, then the record margin is a structural step from the…

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

Indian Hotels Co Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 24 Hotels companies compared here, at ₹9,987 crore. ITC Hotels Ltd is next at ₹4,260 crore. Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 26.9%, so level and change sit with different companies. 24 of 24 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Indian Hotels Co Ltd is the scale leader at ₹9,987 crore, 134.4% ahead of ITC Hotels Ltd. Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd's growth is 26.9% from a ₹413 crore base, with 15 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderIndian Hotels Co Ltd · ₹9,987 crore
Gap134.4% versus #2 · ITC Hotels Ltd
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage24/24 companies · 332 observations

Investor read: Indian Hotels Co Ltd is the scale benchmark; Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Indian Hotels Co Ltd's growth falls below Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Viceroy Hotels Ltd has the highest Margin change at +10.8 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 24 of 24 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

LeaderChalet Hotels Ltd · 46%
Gap7% versus #2 · Lemon Tree Hotels Ltd
Persistence7/8 recent comparable periods

Investor read: Chalet Hotels Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

LeaderIndian Hotels Co Ltd · ₹2,308 crore

Investor read: Indian Hotels Co Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is the residual after operating costs, interest and tax. Growth off a loss or near-zero base is excluded from the fastest-grower rank.

Return On Capital Employed

Travel Food Services Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 24 Hotels companies compared here, at 42.4%. Benares Hotels Ltd is next at 29.8%. HLV Ltd has the highest ROCE change at +10 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 24 of 24 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Travel Food Services Ltd leads ROCE at 42.4%, 12.6 percentage points above Benares Hotels Ltd. HLV Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +10 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

LeaderTravel Food Services Ltd · 42.4%

PersistenceNot enough history

Investor read: Travel Food Services Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Oriental Hotels Ltd has the lowest PEG among the 24 Hotels companies compared here, at 0.66×. Chalet Hotels Ltd is next at 0.83×. HLV Ltd has the lowest P/E at 2.77×, so level and change sit with different companies. 7 of 24 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Oriental Hotels Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.66×, 20.5% below Chalet Hotels Ltd. Only 7 of 24 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderOriental Hotels Ltd · 0.66×
Gap20.5% versus #2 · Chalet Hotels Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage7/24 companies · 25 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Hotels comparison names 7 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 24 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. 6 draw at least one figure from a second feed with too little overlap to cross-check.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • 1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.
  • 6 companies draw at least one figure from a second data feed with too little overlapping history to cross-check against the primary source; they are marked unverified wherever those figures appear.
  • 5 companies are missing from the second-feed metrics by decision, not by absence: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Read those rows as narrower evidence, never as a weaker business.

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 24 Hotels companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-09-11. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

Derived metricsGrowth, changes and PEG are calculated only when their inputs are comparable.
Score confidenceMissing and stale evidence reduces confidence and pulls the 0–100 research-priority score toward neutral.
Source standing8 cross-checked · 11 unverified · 5 withheld, of 24 graded companies.
How a second data feed is admitted, and what happens when it disagrees

A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree the figures fill silently. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn — they are the only evidence there is — and marked ⚠ unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from.

Hotels company comparison FAQs

These 24 answers restate the Hotels comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 24 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-09-11. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is the Hotels sector outperforming NIFTY 500?

Hotels has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.2% over 52 weeks and 7% over 13 weeks. 10 of 23 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 8 of 23 beat the sector itself.

Which Hotels company is largest by revenue?

Indian Hotels Co Ltd leads with revenue of ₹9,987 crore, based on 24 of 24 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

Which Hotels company is growing fastest?

Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd has the fastest current revenue growth at 26.9%, across 24 of 24 comparable companies.

Which Hotels company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?

Chalet Hotels Ltd ranks first at 71.3/100 with 94% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation.

Which Hotels company has the lowest comparable PEG?

Oriental Hotels Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.66, among 7 of 24 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.

How much history does this Hotels comparison include?

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.

Is there a Nifty Hotels index?

NSE India maintains Nifty indices for several broad sector categories — Nifty Bank, Nifty IT, Nifty Pharma and others — but not for every sub-sector grouping on this site. Whether or not an official Nifty index covers Hotels, this page builds its own equal-weight basket of 24 listed Hotels companies — one company, one vote, regardless of market value — so no single large company dominates the reading. Figures are as of Jun 2026.

Which are the best Hotels stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Chalet Hotels Ltd places first among 24 listed Hotels companies, followed by Asian Hotels (West) Ltd. That is a ranking of published data — earnings, quality, valuation and market behaviour as of Jun 2026 — and not a recommendation; Sector Alpha is not registered with SEBI as an investment adviser.

How many Hotels stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 24 listed Hotels companies in India, each above the size floor the site applies, with 20 quarters of reported figures per company where the filings exist. The full ranked list is on this page, as of Jun 2026.

Which Hotels company is the biggest?

Indian Hotels Co Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹9,987 crore, ahead of ITC Hotels Ltd at ₹4,260 crore. That covers 24 of 24 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.

Which Hotels company has the best profit margins?

Chalet Hotels Ltd has the highest operating margin at 46%, from 24 of 24 comparable companies. Viceroy Hotels Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +10.8 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Hotels company makes the most profit?

Indian Hotels Co Ltd earns the most, at ₹2,308 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 24 of 24 comparable companies. Asian Hotels (West) Ltd has the fastest profit growth at the ≥100% scoring cap, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Hotels company earns the highest return on capital?

Travel Food Services Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 42.4%, across 24 of 24 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.

Which Hotels stock is the cheapest?

On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Oriental Hotels Ltd screens cheapest at 0.66×. Only 7 of 24 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.

Is the Hotels sector beating the market?

Hotels has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.2% over the last 52 weeks and 7% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 10 of 23 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.

Which Hotels stock has the strongest price momentum?

Asian Hotels (West) Ltd has the strongest relative strength against NIFTY 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.

Which Hotels company scores highest for research priority?

Chalet Hotels Ltd scores 71.3 out of 100 with 94% evidence confidence, from 25.4 points on growth and earnings, 15.9 on capital efficiency, 16.1 on valuation and 13.9 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

How many Hotels companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 24 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

What is the total market cap of the Hotels sector?

The 24 Hotels companies on this page carry ₹2,53,516 crore of combined market value. Indian Hotels Co Ltd is the largest at ₹1,02,274 crore, about 40% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-09-17.

What is the Hotels sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 24 Hotels companies on this page is 31.5×, measured on the 23 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-09-17.

How is the Hotels sector performing?

10 of the 23 covered Hotels companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 12.2% behind NIFTY 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-09-17.

Why are some values on this page blank?

A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.

Is this investment advice?

No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
