ICICI Securities had recently initiated coverage on ITC Hotels with a 'BUY' rating, citing strong growth visibility supported by its 'asset-right' expansion strategy, new property additions and rising operating leverage.
"We initiate coverage with a BUY rating on ITC Hotels and a target price of ₹250. We value the company at a Dec'27E EV of ₹478.2 billion - for its hotel business at 27x Dec'27E EV/EBITDA of ₹17.7bn at a 15 per cent discount to our target multiple of 32x for Indian Hotels", ICICI Securities said in its research note.
The anticipated target price translates into a potential upside of 30.2 per cent for ITC Hotels stock from current levels.
The brokerage firm sees slower growth in occupancies or room rates and delays in executing upcoming hotel assets as potential key risks.
