- We continue to expand our corporate client base and closed 13 new corporate accounts during the quarter. Subsequent to the end of the quarter we have closed a few large customers including Welspun and an MNC account where we will manage their travel across multiple regions in Asia
Management Comments:
“This marks the third consecutive quarter of Yatra’s market share gain in the air domestic market as our growth in passenger count continues to outpace the overall domestic numbers shared by DGCA.This impressive growth was achieved while optimizing consumer promotion spends. Given the recent IPO and the stronger balance sheet we expect supplier margin expansion over the next few quarters. We further expect a reduction in finance costs as working capital continues to rationalize. As we move forward armed with a significantly healthier balance sheet post IPO, we are optimistic and committed to leveraging these positive trends to drive further growth and success.”
Whole Time Director & Chief Executive Officer, Dhruv Shringi
