SAMHI Hotels Ltd Q2 FY26 Concall Decoded – “Mumbai Dreams, Hyderabad Plans, and a Debt Diet That’s Finally Working”


1. Opening Hook

While India argued about cricket and crude oil, SAMHI quietly plotted to redraw Navi Mumbai’s skyline. Who knew balance sheets could look sexy when spiced with Marriott and a 57-crore impairment reversal? As Lord Krishna once advised in the Bhagavad Gita: “Perform your duty with focus, not attachment to outcomes.” SAMHI seems to have taken that literally — building, refinancing, and smiling through monsoons.

Read on — the real masala begins when the CFO admits free cash flow is the new religion. 🍹
