Thomas Cook India reported a 10% YoY decline in Q4 FY26 consolidated revenue to ₹1,777 crore, heavily impacted by geopolitical disruptions (US-Iran conflict, Pulwama aftermath) that truncated key travel seasons. The travel segment EBIT fell 11% for the full year to ₹2,218 crore, with Desert Adventures (Middle East DMS) revenue halving. Financial services held up better, with Q4 EBIT up 17% to ₹392 crore and margins at 48%. Sterling Resorts delivered a record Q4 with 14% revenue growth and 18% PBT growth, but DI posted a ₹10 crore EBIT loss due to March collapse. Management guided short-haul and domestic growth but warned long-haul weakness persists. Risk: further escalation in Middle East could delay recovery in high-margin long-haul and DMS businesses.
