ICICI Securities Sees 27% Upside in Chalet Hotels
Chalet Hotels owns and operates hotels in India.
Its shares rose 1.20% to ₹883 on the reported trading day.
ICICI Securities thinks the shares could reach ₹1,095.
That would be about 27% higher than the reported closing price.
The brokerage expects the company’s hotel business to grow strongly through FY29.
Chalet is also adding more hotel rooms and developing its own Athiva lifestyle brand.
Its operational hotel portfolio is expected to exceed 5,000 rooms by March 2030.
However, weaker hotel demand or slower office leasing could hurt the company.
The dates in the report appear inconsistent because it mentions both September 2025 and March 2026 market milestones.

ICICI Securities maintained a ‘Buy’ rating and a ₹1,095 target price.
The brokerage expects hotel revenue to grow at a 15% CAGR through FY29E.
Chalet Hotels plans to add 1,655 keys, taking its portfolio above 5,000 by March 2030.
