Quarter read
What the record says.
GMR Airports reported a resilient Q4 FY26 with total income of INR 40.4 billion, up 36% YoY, and EBITDA of INR 15.5 billion, up 38% YoY. PAT turned positive at INR 4 billion versus a loss of INR 2.5 billion in Q4 FY25. Traffic across GAL-operated airports grew only 1% YoY to 31.7 million passengers, impacted by geopolitical conflicts, airspace closures, and fuel price spikes. Management expects a 5-7% traffic growth for FY27, with recovery in H2 as conditions normalize. Non-aero revenue momentum continues, with duty-free and cargo expansions. Risks include prolonged geopolitical tensions and potential traffic cannibalization from Noida airport. Capex for FY27 is guided at ~INR 1,400 crore, primarily for Bhogapuram and Nagpur airports.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management expects overall traffic growth of 5-7% for FY27, driven by recovery in H2 and contributions from Bhogapuram and Nagpur airports.
- Bhogapuram airport will commence commercial operations in Q2 FY27, ahead of the original December 2026 target.
- Total capex for FY27 is guided at approximately INR 1,400 crore, including INR 700-800 crore for Bhogapuram and INR 200 crore for Nagpur, plus real estate projects.
- Hyderabad airport expects new tariffs to be approved in Q3 FY27, which will be significantly better than current tariffs.
Risks flagged
- Ongoing Iran conflict and airspace closures have reduced passenger traffic and increased costs; if not resolved, could continue to suppress demand.
- Analyst raised concern about cargo traffic moving to the new Noida airport; management downplayed risk but acknowledged possible impact on cargo.
- Hyderabad airport saw traffic softening and margin compression in Q4; management expects H1 FY27 to remain soft before recovery in H2.
- Net debt may rise by ~INR 1,000 crore in FY27 due to final payments for Bhogapuram and Nagpur, though management highlights net debt/EBITDA as key metric.
Key quotes
- The current softening is transitory due to Iran conflict and should not be viewed as a structural decline in demand.
- Our long-term strategies remain firmly on track because we are building for the next decade of Indian growth, not just next quarter.
- Non-aero platform numbers are now higher than Hyderabad airport numbers.
