PerformanceThe Board of Directors is pleased to present the performance of the Company, the best in its history resulting from a higher hotel Average Room Rate and Occupancy.
PROJECT UNDER DEVELOPMENT The Oberoi Gandikota, Andhra PradeshDuring the Financial Year 2023-24, construction of a luxury resort at Gandikota, Kadapa District was approved by the Board of Directors on a land measuring 50 acres offered by the Government of Andhra Pradesh on a lease of 90 years. A lease deed was executed between the Company and Andhra Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation (Wholly owned Corporation of the Government of Andhra Pradesh).
A luxury resort comprising 20 rooms will be operational by January 2028. A Management and Technical Service Agreement has been executed between the Company and EIH Limited for managing and operating the luxury resort. A royalty agreement was also signed and executed between the Company and Oberoi Hotels Private Limited for using the "The Oberoi" brand.
The international architect appointed by the company for designing the hotel had suggested realigning the land to get a better view of the gorge and lake. Accordingly, the company approached the Tourism Department of the State Government with a request to realign the land and give a fresh survey plan. The matter was referred to State Cabinet which approved the fresh survey plan with revised survey numbers after which it was allotted to the company through a supplementary lease agreement.
Trident Tirupati, Andhra PradeshDuring the Financial Year 2023-24, construction of a luxury hotel comprising of 125 rooms and suites at Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh was approved by the Board of Directors on a land measuring 20 acres in Tirupati offered by the Andhra Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation (Wholly owned Corporation of Government of Andhra Pradesh) with a lease period of 90 years.
However, due to objections from the Tirupati Devasthanam Trust for not allowing a hotel to be constructed on the foothills of the temple due to religious sentiments, the Tourism Department of the State Government has agreed in their letter dated 10th May 2025 after the approval of State Cabinet to allot alternate land of 20 acres on the opposite side of the road 1.5 km from the present site.
On transfer of land to the Tourism Department by Tirupati Devasthanam, the company will be given possession of land which is expected to be completed by the first week of June 2025 under the same terms and conditions applicable to the existing lease. The State Government has also agreed to reimburse the incurred cost of Rs 14.50 crore after due verification, in a manner decided by the Government.
