Viceroy Hotels Ltd
VHLTDViceroy Hotels Ltd's three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it.
The sharpest disagreement: the price moved +27.9% in a year while annual EPS moved −76.5% — the difference is re-rating, and re-rating has to be repaid with earnings.
The price is in a confirmed uptrend (49 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 57th percentile of its own 2-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving, and 102% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved.
Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.
Viceroy Hotels Ltd trades at ₹134, in a confirmed uptrend and 49 weeks into that stage. That is +1.6% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 55% of a 52-week range of ₹116 to ₹149. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (15 weeks and counting).
Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 49 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹134 it trades +1.6% versus its 200-day average and sits at 55% of its 52-week range (₹116–₹149).
Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.4 years the stock moved +957% while the NIFTY 500 moved +282% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (15 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-05-22) — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.
What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.
Valuation P/E is the price of ₹1 of annual profit: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee the company earns in a year.
Viceroy Hotels Ltd trades at 39.8× P/E, mid-range by its own standards (57th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 22.2×, measured across 1.7 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.
Today's P/E of 39.8× is mid-range by its own standards (57th percentile), against a long-run median of 22.2× measured over 1.7 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.
🚨 Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved −76.5% against a +27.9% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.
Put together: the multiple is unremarkable against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.
A quarterly PEG curve, which only the second data source carries, is not drawn on this page: its two data sources do not share enough overlapping reported history to be compared. A figure nobody could check is not used to price growth — the gap is a decision, not missing data.
Stage: Turning around Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).
Viceroy Hotels Ltd reads as turning around on its fundamental arc. Turning around — profit growth swung from −92.7% at the trough to −39.8% off a 2-quarter-old trough (single-quarter readings), ROCE holding at 7.0%. The read is built from 9 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.
Why it matters: growth inflections are where re-ratings start — the curves say a turn is forming, so the question becomes whether the next quarters confirm it.
One or more growth curves carry a base-effect spike — a large year-on-year move off a near-zero or loss-making comparable quarter. Those spikes are capped before the classifier reads the trajectory, and shown pinned on the chart, so a single distorted quarter does not drive the stage call.
Return readings here are annual, not quarterly — read as level and direction only; they can confirm the growth curves but never drive the stage on their own.
A partial read: at least one curve is short, or the returns curve is not the computed quarterly series — hold the stage word a little more loosely.

4-Factor Sector Score
44.2/100 — rank 18 of 24 in Hotels · 79% evidence confidence
Viceroy Hotels Ltd scores 44.2 out of 100 against the 24 companies it is compared with in Hotels, ranking 18. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.
The four contributions add to the total exactly: 21 + 7.5 + 5.9 + 9.8 = 44.2. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.
What would change it: The read weakens if profit growth turns negative or margin improvement reverses while sector-relative strength deteriorates.
Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.
Viceroy Hotels Ltd reported ₹44.9 Cr of revenue in the Jun 26 quarter, +77.0% year on year. That is the 3rd straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 1.4% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹143 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹163 Cr.
FY26 revenue came in at ₹143 Cr (+4.4% on the year), capping 10 years at 1.4% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹44.9 Cr, +77.0% year on year — the 3rd consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.
Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +27.9% growth against the decade's 1.4% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.
Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +24.4% over the last 4 quarters against +7.6%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating.
Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every ₹100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.
Viceroy Hotels Ltd's operating margin is 25.6% in the Jun 26 quarter, +10.8 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged −66.0% to 31.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.
The latest quarter's operating margin is 25.6%, +10.8 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged −66.0%–31.0%.
Why the margin moved: operating margin went +10.8 pp year on year while gross margin went +4.2 pp — the gain came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.
Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.
Viceroy Hotels Ltd earned ₹1.4 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹18.0 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 5.0%. That is 3.2% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost ₹3.0 Cr. 2 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making.
Jun 26 profit was ₹1.4 Cr, null year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹18.0 Cr (−76.9%), and the 10-year compound rate is 5.0%.
Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit −27.4% vs revenue +27.9%. Profit is growing slower than sales — costs are eating the growth before it reaches the bottom line.
Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.
Over the last 3 fiscal years 102% of Viceroy Hotels Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹58.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹18.0 Cr of profit. After ₹284 Cr of capital spending, ₹−226 Cr was left as free cash.
FY26: operating cash of ₹58.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹18.0 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−226 Cr after ₹284 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 102% of profit.
Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.
Why conversion sits at 102%: the cash cycle tightened 252 days between FY21 and FY26 — cash that used to wait in the cycle now reaches the bank sooner.
Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 5.5× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.
Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).
Viceroy Hotels Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs −157 days in FY26, down from 95 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹224 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹143 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹0.4 Cr, so roughly ₹−62.0 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.
FY26: debtors at 16 days, inventory at 17 days — roughly 0.6 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of −157 days, tighter than FY21's 95.
The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 17 days to sell; customers pay about 16 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 190 days — netting out to the −157-day cycle.
In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹143 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹0.4 Cr — so the −157-day loop keeps roughly ₹−62.0 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.
On the investment side: capital spending of ₹224 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹41.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹57.0 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.
The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.
Return on capital Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it — equity and debt together. It is the single best test of whether growth creates value or just size.⚠ unverified
Viceroy Hotels Ltd earns a ROCE of 7% in FY26. That is up from a trough of −21% in FY22. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −6.7 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 12.6% net margin on 0.26× asset turns.
FY26 ROCE is 7%, recovered from a FY22 trough of −21% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.
🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 12.6% net margin × 0.26× asset turns × 2.09× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 6.8% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.
The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 5.3% − 12.0% = a −6.7 pp spread. The 12.0% is a standing assumption for the cost of capital in India, not a per-stock estimate — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. Negative — growth at these returns destroys value until the returns recover.
Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.⚠ unverified
Viceroy Hotels Ltd carries total debt of ₹264 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹267 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.99. On the annual view that ratio went from −1.42 in FY22 to 0.99 in FY26. Read the returns elsewhere on this page with that leverage in mind.
Mar 26: total debt of ₹264 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹267 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.99. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from −1.42 (FY22) to 0.99 (FY26). Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind.
Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.
Promoters cut 10.9 points of Viceroy Hotels Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 84.1% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −1.5 points over the same window, to 0.0%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.
The register over the last two years — Promoters: −10.9 points over 8 quarters to 84.1%; Domestic institutions: −1.5 points over 8 quarters to 0.0%.
🚨 Why the register moved: promoters drove it (−10.9 points), alongside domestic institutions (−1.5 points) — distribution into the market’s bid.
Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.
Viceroy Hotels Ltd: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.
The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one.

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.

Does Viceroy Hotels Ltd have too much debt?
It is moderate — Viceroy Hotels Ltd's debt-to-equity is 0.99, and operating profit covers the interest bill 4×. FY26 borrowings were ₹264 Cr against equity of ₹267 Cr. Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind — as of 31 July 2026.
What is Viceroy Hotels Ltd's capex?
Viceroy Hotels Ltd spent ₹224 Cr on capital expenditure over the last 3 fiscal years, a figure derived from the change in fixed assets plus depreciation. In FY26 alone that was ₹284 Cr, with ₹57.0 Cr in capital work-in-progress — capacity paid for but not yet earning. — as of 31 July 2026.

Viceroy Hotels Ltd generated ₹58.0 Cr of operating cash flow in FY26 and ₹−226 Cr of free cash flow after ₹284 Cr of capital spending. Reported profit that year was ₹18.0 Cr, so operating cash ran ahead of profit. Cash-flow resolution for India is annual. — as of 31 July 2026.
Is Viceroy Hotels Ltd's profit real cash?

Where is Viceroy Hotels Ltd in its business cycle?
Viceroy Hotels Ltd's FY26 operating margin was 27.0%, against a 13-year band of −66.0%–31.0%: mid-band by its own history — neither the peak that precedes mean-reversion nor the trough that precedes recovery. The latest quarter ran 25.6%. Profitability versus a company's own long band is the cleanest cycle clock this page holds — as of 31 July 2026.
What could break the Viceroy Hotels Ltd story?
The sharpest disagreement: the price moved +27.9% in a year while annual EPS moved −76.5% — the difference is re-rating, and re-rating has to be repaid with earnings. Mechanically, two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day average would end the price trend — that is the exit rule this page tracks — as of 31 July 2026.
Is Viceroy Hotels Ltd a stock worth studying right now?
This is not investment advice. The machine read: Viceroy Hotels Ltd's three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it. The sharpest open question: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 31 July 2026.
