[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Thank you, Vipul. Welcome everyone to our fourth quarter and full year call for FY 2026. Before we take you all through the quarter details, I would like to step back a bit and remind everyone about some fundamental structural changes that have emerged post-COVID that has been shaping the travel market in India. When the world opened in 2022, the rebound that initially looked to be pent-up demand coming out of the quiet phase due to pandemic soon formed a new baseline. This robust shift in demand is reflected in our reported numbers, where gross bookings went from approximately $3.2 billion in FY 2022 to $6.6 billion in FY 2023 and a record $10.4 billion in FY 2026, compounding at roughly 34% over four years.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

This was a good combination of post-pandemic recovery and behavior shift among Indian travelers, well supported by some key structural macro changes in the Indian economy. Major reasons for this robust demand shift are: First is rising an aspirational middle class. As per a Bain study, the middle-income household with annual income between $4,500-$35,000 has been growing at a robust high single-digit annual growth rate and is likely to further grow at an accelerated pace from 200 million in 2022 to 300 million in 2032, a growth of 50% in ten years. India also added over 70 million passport holders in the last five years. Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities are now major growth drivers.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

A traveler from Indore or Coimbatore today has the same aspiration and increasingly the same purchasing power as one from Mumbai or Delhi five years ago. This is a massive multi-year addressable market expansion, and we are only in its early innings. Second, travel has shifted from occasion to habit. Our data shows booking frequency per user is rising year on year. Indians are no longer saving up for one big annual holiday. They are taking multiple trips a year. Three to six trips a year across leisure, religious, and extended weekend categories is becoming the new normal for India's connected earning class. The experiential economy is real and is a big opportunity. The cohort driving this is also the one with the longest consumption runway ahead.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

As per Collinson International's 2024 research, Indian millennials annual travel spend was at about $6,000, making travel their single largest discretionary expense at 34% of annual spending. These millennials are not yet in their peak earning years. These millennials are not yet in their even peak earning years. The per trip wallet will only expand with time. Third, the growth of world-class physical infrastructure. The demand story compounds if supply keeps pace, as we all know. New airports, run routes, expressways, premium brand train corridors, the government's infrastructure investment is creating supply that meets this demand. Every new airport is a new market for us. Every new direct international route is a new booking opportunity. India's expanding highway network and airport capacity are making travel faster, easier and more reliable across the country.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Better road and air connectivity is opening up smaller cities and tourist destinations, reducing travel time and helping unlock tourism, local spending and regional economic growth. On aviation, operational airports have doubled from 74 in 2014 to 157 in 2024, improving access beyond major metros and making travel more affordable and widespread, especially for Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. This is expected to further expand to 400 airports by 2047, providing a multi-decade opportunity. India's highway network has expanded sharply, with national highways rising from 91,287 km in 2014 to about 146,145 km in 2024, while construction speed increased to 33.8 km per day in 2023-2024.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Similarly, listed hotel companies are projected to add over 70,000 keys to India's hotel sector by FY 2030, according to CBRE. Majority of new additions are being built into undersupplied Tier 2 markets and spiritual tourism corridors, both of which are future growth opportunities. Homestays have emerged as a flexible, scalable supply addition as well, now actively supported by governments. Vacation rentals and boutique homestays are capturing outsized growth because they align with experiential itineraries that favor local immersion over standardized services. The physical infrastructure story only is half the job done in today's digital age unless the digital infrastructure has kept pace with it. India has come a long way on digital infrastructure development as well.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

With internet penetration touching about 1 billion people with high-quality bandwidth becoming affordable with data costs falling from INR 269 per GB in 2014 to about INR 9 per GB in 2024. On top of this is the payments infrastructure. UPI processed 640 million transactions daily in 2025, clearing over 16 billion transactions in a single month by late 2025. The combined effect is that checkout friction, historically one of the largest causes of bookings abandonment, has largely been addressed. A traveler in a Tier 3 city with a mid-range Android device can now search, compare, book, and pay in under five minutes without a credit card. We have also witnessed Indian market showing resilience to bounce back fairly quickly as the disruption starts to go away.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Last year was another such year as it was impacted by many disruptions pretty much every quarter. Interesting part was that the travel demand remained resilient and robust during the unimpacted months of the year, reflecting the continued strength of underlying consumer sentiment and structural growth trajectory of India's travel market. We at MMYT continue to outpace industry growth despite disruptions with healthy momentum across segments. While our international-.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Rajesh. Hey, Rajesh. You might just need to come a little closer because you're fading out at times.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Sure. Sorry. Is it fine now?

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Yes, better.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Is it fine now?

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Yes, better. Yes, much better.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

All right. While our international business started to get impacted in March due to Middle East conflict, the domestic business remains strong. For the reported quarter, March was impacted due to West Asia conflict. January and February witnessed strong year-over-year growth on steady-state basis. Encouraged by structural changes in the market and consumer behavior to spend more on travel, we remain confident of revenue growth in the 20s during normal periods. When external headwinds arise, we rely on the strength and resilience of our platform, which offers multiple travel services, serves diverse demand segments to still deliver healthy growth compared to the industry. The other big transformational shift in the digital world is being caused by AI. At MakeMyTrip, we see AI not merely as a productivity tool, but as a foundational layer that can redefine travel discovery, planning, booking, servicing, and loyalty.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

As shared earlier, we have been on our journey to embed GenAI all through the consumer journey, leveraging our own proprietary data besides launching Myra, a conversational interface. Continuing with the journey, we launched an upgraded and more powerful and intelligent version of Myra, where a traveler can now complete consumer journey right from planning to making payments within Myra using multilingual voice feature. It also now enables seamless natural interactions across flights, hotels, buses, trains, cabs, and end-to-end itinerary planning, positioning itself as a true travel companion. What makes India uniquely exciting in the AI era is also the diversity and scale of consumer behavior. AI allows us to bridge language, trust, and discovery barriers in ways that were previously impossible.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Over the last quarter, Myra has scaled to over 50,000+ conversations every day and is now embedded across the entire customer journey from inspiration and discovery to booking and post-sales support. Over the last few days, this number has further scaled to over 80,000 conversations per day. For Myra, adoption is broad-based. Over 45% of usage comes from Tier 2 and smaller cities, with voice emerging as a key interface. Voice interactions are 50% higher in non-metro markets with 70% of queries in English and prompts that are 40% longer and more complex than text inputs, highlighting deeper engagement and richer intent capture. Regional languages are also gaining traction, contributing 10% of voice volume today. Myra has now expanded to seven additional Indian languages, significantly widening accessibility.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Almost 15% of conversations now happen at the trip planning stage, where users are still exploring destinations and options. This allows us to influence decision-making much earlier and guide users towards more relevant, higher-value outcomes. This deeper engagement is translating into measurable business impact. Users interacting with Myra across discovery, support, and booking stages demonstrate 10% higher conversion rates compared to traditional filter-led journeys. By making discovery more intuitive and personalized, Myra is reducing friction and accelerating decision-making. During the quarter, Myra assisted over 200,000 bookings directly. Customers engaged with our AI agent, got their queries resolved, and completed a transaction. We are also continuing to enhance our existing consumer journey flow with the use of AI. Our Smart Search feature is now enabling intent-led discovery at scale. Smart Search is semantic free text search capability that lets customers describe what they want naturally.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

For example, family stay near Baga Beach with Jain food or rooftop pool hotel in Jaipur with spa access. Through this feature, customers now receive contextually precise explainable results. This feature delivers much higher conversion versus traditional filter-based journeys, clearly demonstrating that understanding intent outperforms matching keywords. We have also enabled user reviews through voice. With this feature, we are seeing a fundamental shift in review quality. Voice reviews are generating a lot more content per submission compared to typed reviews. Customers describe their stays naturally in detail in their own language. This richer signal feeds directly into our knowledge graph, improving the quality of AI-generated summaries, safety scores, and contextual recommendations for future travelers. Voice is becoming the default input for Indian customers, increasingly, and we are building our content infrastructure around that reality.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

We continue to drive AI-based interventions in our redBus brand too. Apart from customer support handling through AI chatbots, which have scaled up and yielded about 33% efficiencies, we are now introducing voice bots to replace legacy IVR systems. We are witnessing an initial CSAT. We have scaled up the AI chatbot, RAY, in the pre-booking user journey as well. Adoption has scaled meaningfully. Regional language users show 2x engagement compared to English users, indicating clear resonance among high intent and regional audiences. Around 6% of total queries come via voice as input. RAY is emerging as an assist layer that improves decision confidence before booking and deepens engagement in core booking funnels. This is reflected in an overall strong growth in bus ticketing segment, driven not just by top metros, but the Tier 2 cities across the country.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Overall, we are on our journey to make MakeMyTrip an AI-native org with engineering, customer support, supply onboarding, content generation, and marketing functions leading the race while other corporate functions are catching up on AI adoption real fast, making the org more agile and efficient. We have started to see a meaningful impact in certain areas as well. For instance, about 60%-70% of the new code is being written by AI tools now. Similarly, AI is also driving meaningful efficiency gains on our customer service function. About 55% of our call center flight and hotels customer queries are being now resolved by digital voice agent. Aim is to keep solving for the long tail and corner use cases as we go along to ultimately have minimal human intervention on customer service without compromise on quality of experience for the customer.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

India remains one of the most under-penetrated travel markets globally relative to its population and income trajectory. Over the next decade, we believe India could become one of the largest travel opportunity markets in the world. Online travel is a multi-billion-dollar structural growth opportunity, and MakeMyTrip intends to play a central role in enabling that journey. As we look ahead, our priorities remain clear: driving an AI and proprietary data-led transformation change in the org to drive the future growth at MMYT. Keep innovating to further strengthen the core offerings with supply-side moats and scale our new offerings to be the customer's first choice as one-stop shop for all travel needs, both for our retail and corporate customers. Leverage unique positioning of our three strong brands and other distribution channels to expand customer reach.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Leverage AI tools to drive efficiencies across the org to help drive operating leverage. With this, let me now hand over the call to Mohit for the business highlights of the quarter.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Thanks, Rajesh, and hello, everyone. The reported financial year presented a challenging operating environment with several external factors impacting travel demand across quarters. The reported quarter was also marred by the West Asia conflict, which has impacted westbound international travel, and with increasing fuel costs, has also led to an increase in domestic airfares in a highly price-conscious market. We were able to partially mitigate the impact of these headwinds by promoting domestic travel with a variety of transport options to suit the varying travel budgets of our customers and promoting eastbound travel within our international travel offerings. India continues to offer a deep and growing domestic travel opportunity supported by improving infrastructure, which is helping open travel demand beyond the traditional destinations. While we are dialing up traditional leisure destinations like Goa, Kerala, Rajasthan, and Kashmir, we are now actively promoting the relatively underexplored destinations of say Northeast.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

We are also tapping into the potential of pilgrimage plus pleasure trips, combining visits to pilgrimage destinations with activities or holiday options in or around those destinations. Short duration, drive-down holidays or breaks are also gaining popularity, and we are curating more of such options for our customers across the length and breadth of the country. This is being done by curating relevant supply, strengthening partnerships, and targeting customers with more contextual offerings, as well as curating destinations and products where the travel confidence and affordability remains strong. For customers who are finding increasing airfares as a deterrent to travel, we have dialed up our ground transport offerings to retain or spur up domestic travel demand. We have added new supply to take the private bus inventory to an average of 46,000 daily schedules during the reported quarter.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

To channel new supply of routes to higher demand categories or sectors, we have revamped the route suggestions module for our suppliers on bus services. This enables them to figure out routes that have unmet demand and add more inventory on those routes. As a result, our bus ticketing volumes for the quarter grew by 27.6% year-on-year, and for the full year grew by 32.9% year-on-year. The Intercity Cabs business, which is a relatively new business, has also seen growth at over 20%. Demand on a variety of these routes was also aided by regional festivals during the quarter. As a result of providing variety of transport options that suit the travel budgets of our varied customers, we were able to deliver strong volume growth of 15.2% in our accommodation business, which includes hotels, homestays and holiday packages.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

It might be relevant to call that as per HVS Research, the occupancy in the accommodation industry during the reported quarter is likely or slightly negative on a year-on-year basis. This year-on-year growth of 15.2% is also notable as it has come in a quarter which has been impacted by the high base of Kumbh-related one-time demand in the same quarter of last year. Long weekends and drive-down holidays are emerging as important growth drivers as more consumers or customers increasingly look for short-haul, convenient and value-oriented travel options. We recorded our highest ever domestic hotel check-ins on 24th January weekend, crossing 200,000 room nights on a single day for the first time. One particularly notable trend is the rise of spiritual and pilgrimage tourism.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Accommodation bookings for spiritual destinations have continued to demonstrate strong momentum even after the Kumbh event of last year, highlighting the structural rise of pilgrimage and faith-based tourism in India. Pilgrimage has always been embedded in India's culture. We are witnessing now a growing wave with more and more Indians across age groups actively choosing spiritual travel as part of their lives. This also reflects that travel in India is increasingly emotional, cultural and experience driven, and not just transactional. We continue to differentiate ourselves through unmatched spread and selection, offering customers a breadth of inventory across destinations, price points as per their travel needs. This extensive choice, combined with our strong platform experience, allows us to serve a wide range of travel preferences more effectively. We now have over 100,000 accommodation options available on the platform, covering more than 2,050 cities in the country.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

During the last year, we sold room nights for over 12,000 new properties for the first time on our platforms. In the homestay segment, we continue to invest in building the category and are enhancing our product proposition to improve customer experience and broaden the appeal of these kind of stays. We believe this remains an important long-term opportunity, and we are focused on strengthening the value proposition for both travelers as well as our supply partners. We launched quick commerce and food delivery serviceability status on relevant property page details for many of such accommodations. Surfacing availability of essentials and food delivery upfront improves trip planning convenience for our customers and reduces the pre-booking anxiety. We also enhanced visibility of caretaker and on-site support information across these listings.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Clearer disclosure of presence, availability and responsibilities helps the guests better assess the stay experience and provide on-ground assistance. Our holiday packages business and homestays business continue to scale well. During the quarter, we completed our acquisition of the majority stake in Flamingo Transworld, a regional group holiday packages business based out of Gujarat in India. Flamingo has a strong presence in the state of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, with curated group tours known for regional focus, customized experiences and servicing of international travelers. This is going to add to our strength of the holidays business, particularly on the international side. Coming to our air ticketing business, this was impacted by a combination of supply-side and geopolitical factors.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

During the first three quarters, the domestic aviation market was affected by geopolitical issues and capacity constraints, leading to limited growth despite underlying demand remaining healthy. In the fourth quarter, the West Asia conflict has created uncertainty and impacted westbound traffic from India. This has impacted both international air ticketing as well as international accommodation business for us. Some of this uncertainty is continuing in the current quarter as well. Elevated crude oil prices and a depreciating rupee are weighing on international travel, though both higher airfare and softer discretionary demand for outbound trips. This is also leading to profitability pressures for the airlines, and some of the airlines have already curtailed their international capacity. During the reported quarter, both domestic and international flight departures witnessed degrowth as compared to the same quarter last year.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

While domestic flown passenger market for the quarter declined by 1.5% year-on-year, the decline in the international passenger traffic was even higher at 6% year-on-year. We continue to grow in line with the industry while maintaining our leading market share in the air ticketing business. Just as our booking of travel services, including multiple transport options is helping us meet the travel budgets of our varied retail customers. Our differentiated demand segments are also helping us drive better than industry growth. While the West Asia crisis has had a higher impact on retail demand, corporate demand continues to remain strong. Our corporate travel businesses via both our platforms, that is myBiz and Quest2Travel, saw not only growth from existing accounts, but also new acquisition.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Our active customer count on myBiz is now over 76,800 corporates compared to 64,000 of them during the same quarter last year. Similarly, for Q2T, the active customer count has now reached 548 large corporates compared to 507 such corporates during the same quarter last year. Across the two platforms, we now service over 1,500 large corporate customers. Lastly, we made a strategic minority investment and visa servicing agreement with Atlys, a visa processing platform. This investment will allow MakeMyTrip travelers to benefit from a streamlined visa application process, as well as create an opportunity for MakeMyTrip to cross-sell its travel offerings to the customer base of Atlys. Before I hand over the call to Dipak to present the financial summary, I would like to call out that we remain cautiously optimistic in view of the ongoing geopolitical issues.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Just as COVID offered us a silver lining in terms of utilizing the team to invest in new platforms to tap into corporate and small travel agent demand, we are now investing in an AI-first approach to build AI-enabled platforms for the future. This will span across our investments in product innovation, personalization, supplier partnerships, service reliability, and building AI-platform-native revenue streams to drive traffic monetization. It will also be important to call out that we have built a playbook to manage demand volatility with a disciplined approach on optimizing costs in line with market conditions and ensuring operating leverage in our business. This, along with our diversified business model, strong brand equity, and deep customer relationships, should keep us well-positioned to capture the next phase of growth as demand conditions improve. With this, let me now hand over the call to Dipak for financial highlights of the quarter.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

Thanks, Mohit, and hello, everyone. We started January on a strong note with healthy growth across the businesses. In February, our growth rate moderated and was broadly in line with our expectations, given the higher base from Kumbh related demand in the same period of last year. March was impacted by the conflict, which created pressure on demand. Even so, overall growth for the quarter remained decent and demonstrated the resilience of our business. For the full year, IFRS revenue grew by 10.7% YOY in constant currency. Our results from operating activities, which is equivalent to EBIT, was at $156 million in FY 2026, witnessing a strong growth of 30.1% YOY. Even in an impacted year, we continued to improve our unit economics through better mix, operating discipline, and steady execution across the platform.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

As a result, overall profitability for the year improved meaningfully. Adjusted operating profit margin expanded to 1.82% of gross booking in FY 2026, compared to 1.71% in FY 2025. Importantly, even in a quarter that was impacted by external events, we were able to maintain profitability, which reflects the strength of our business model and benefits our disciplined cost management. Moving on to our segment results. For the quarter, our air ticketing adjusted margin stood at $99.3 million, registering a YOY growth of 10.7% YOY in constant currency. While the volume declined due to disruption, we achieved robust growth in adjusted margin on the back of a strong ancillary attach and better unit economics.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

For the hotels and packages segment, we recorded strong volume growth of 15.2% YOY, with standalone hotels growing faster at 15.5% YOY on the back of a strong demand in domestic hotel segments. International hotel segment growth was impacted this quarter due to the conflict, like international air. As explained last quarter, we are witnessing a mix shift between the hotel segment by GST reduction, leading to a lower ASP. In line with this, our gross booking growth was at 10.8% YOY in constant currency, and adjusted margin growth was at 11.5% YOY in constant currency. For the full year, hotel and packages adjusted margin growth was at 15.7% YOY in constant currency.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

In our bus ticketing business, the adjusted margin stood at $41.1 million, registering a YOY growth of 17.1% in constant currency terms. This is little lower than the trend due to the impact of one-time Kumbh-related demand in Q4 of last year. Our ancillary business, which is part of other segment, is scaling up well. This is helping us get a larger share of wallet of our customers by building the attach of ancillary business. As a result, adjusted margin from other segment came in at $25.4 million in Q4 of FY 2026, witnessing a strong growth of 27.1% YOY in constant currency. For the full year FY 2026, adjusted margin from others was at $95 million, witnessing a growth of 37.1% YOY in constant currency.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

Moving on to the expense side, most expenses came in line. Marketing and sales promotion expense for the quarter was at 5.2% of gross booking, compared to 5.6% in the previous high season quarter. As a result, our adjusting operating profit for the quarter was at $46.5 million, with a margin at 1.82% of gross booking. The non-cash interest cost on our zero-coupon convertible bonds for the quarter in the P&L was at $27.6 million, and also a one-time gain of $30.6 million due to the change in carrying value of 2028 convertible bonds.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

We had a translation-related foreign currency loss at $17.7 million, which has been significant due to the sharp depreciation of INR by 4.45% drop over the last quarter. Consequently, reported PAT for the quarter was $24.3 million. The adjusted net profit came in at $33.8 million. We have a strong balance sheet, and our cash flow generation continues to be robust. For the full year of FY 2026, we generated $182.5 million cash from operating activities. We were able to convert 97% of adjusted operating profit into cash flow from operating activities. As part of our capital allocation strategy during the quarter, we repurchased 0.9 million ordinary shares for an aggregate amount of approximately $50.3 million during this quarter.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

Total utilization for buyback program, including buyback of convertible bonds during the full year, was $96.4 million out of the $100 million plan allocated for buybacks. This was our highest in the market buyback in a single year. Another $22 million deployment was made for the investment made in Flamingo and a minority stake in Atlys. We ended the quarter with a cash and cash equivalent of over $782 million. As outlined in our March announcement, we completed our internal restructuring to combine all our key brands operating in India under a single entity with the merger of redBus India into MakeMyTrip India.

[Dipak Bohra, Group CFO at MakeMyTrip]

These steps were undertaken to enable the company to evaluate a potential listing of the overall India business at the appropriate stage, which will strengthen our brand further in India and allow access to a differentiated and new pool of capital across institutional and retail investors. A potential listing requires several customary work streams to be completed, including regulatory, financial, legal, tax, audit, governance, disclosure, and market readiness preparation. We are working on each of these with our advisors and shall keep periodically updates shared with the market. With that, I would like to turn the call to Vipul for Q&A.

[Vipul Garg, Senior VP of Investor Relations at MakeMyTrip]

Thanks, Dipak. Any participant who wish to ask question can click on the Raise Hand button on their screen, and we will take the questions one by one. The first question is from the line of Manish Adukia of Goldman Sachs. Manish, you may please ask your question now.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Thank you, Vipul. Just checking you're able to hear me okay, right?

[Vipul Garg, Senior VP of Investor Relations at MakeMyTrip]

Yes, please go ahead.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Perfect. Thank you. Hi, good evening, team, and thank you for taking my questions. A few questions. Firstly, thanks for the elaborate color on the overall environment right now. Given the headwinds have persisted in the June quarter as well, and given the West Asia conflict only started in the month of March, is it, like, fair to assume that things will probably get worse in the near term from a numbers perspective, whether it's GBV or revenue growth, at least in the June quarter, before they start getting better? A related question to that, this disruption in demand to outbound travel, particularly westbound travel, is that, does that have, like, a negative impact on margins or on margins the impact is not material? That's my first question, please.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Hi. Hi, Manish. Maybe I can take the second question first. As far as margins are concerned, as you would have seen even in the reported quarter, we have not seen any impact, you know, across segments. We've largely maintained similar kind of, you know, margin levels across our segments. We expect that that will continue even through the upcoming quarter. On the first one, you know, the West Asia crisis continues to impact us, right? We are almost like, you know, more than halfway into the first quarter of the next fiscal year as well. We do believe, yes, there will be impact on the growth trajectory.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

We should just keep in mind that this is also a seasonally better quarter on travel, and therefore we are trying to kind of, you know, make as much as possible by dialing up domestic travel offerings and providing increasing, you know, variety of travel options to customers on the domestic front, to try and capture the demand or move the demand from international to domestic to the best extent possible.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Thanks, Mohit. Maybe just a quick follow-up on that, and I am sorry if I missed if you already disclosed it. If you can just remind us, for this quarter, what was the growth in your overall outbound portfolio versus domestic, maybe at a revenue or GBV level? If I recall correctly, I think outbound travel is about 27%-28% of your overall revenue. If you can just maybe give us the mix or of growth between domestic and outbound, that will be helpful.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Yeah. Actually, the you know, considering that, you know, because of the West Asia crisis, you know, international has been significantly impacted. The mix hasn't moved, you know, or gotten any better during this quarter. It's largely kind of, you know, remained stable. Therefore, like I was saying, large part of growth has been domestically.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Got it.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Maybe Manish, I can just add to the first question a little bit more color for you because, see, while there is, there is obviously Middle East crisis, and that is continuing. I think what is different from what it was in March and what it is in now, is that in March when war started, it was a general overall sentiment drop. You know, there a lot of the cancellations happening and a lot of the flights not operating and so on. Now what the situation is that actually a lot of the flights are back operational now. It's not that about 65%-70% in the GCC region the flights are operational.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Now it has moved from like a complete disruption to, you know, inflationary led issues, given the oil and energy prices crisis leading to ATF prices going on, going up. What this particular thing does is that the essential travel continues and the leisure and the discretionary drops. To that extent, there will be some travel happening, and we can see that even on our platform some bookings happening. That will be a nuanced difference between March and what is happening now, and we'll see how it sort of goes.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

The second very important thing that we are seeing is that particularly in the beginning of May onwards, we started seeing as Mohit was alluding to, the seasonality kicking in. Which effectively means that, you know, historically also we have seen that when people are looking for if there is a problem in a particular destination, they quickly make their plans. They change their plans to the other alternative destinations.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Because of which international we have seen Southeast Asia and Far East bookings going up and the shift happening on the booking on the domestic travel side. I think that it's going to be a bit of a mixed bag, and we see overall, you know, where do we sort of land. It is not completely a doomsday scenario is what I wanted to highlight.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Very clear. Thank you. My second question is on your press release from the month of March where you did talk about you evaluating a potential listing in India. One, is there like a timeline that you have in mind, like six months, 12 months? Is there like an outer limit within which you want to list? Second, if you were to list in MakeMyTrip India, any early thoughts and color on how you're thinking about the potential fungibility of MakeMyTrip India versus MakeMyTrip Limited and shareholder of MakeMyTrip Limited currently? How do they participate in that? Any, any early color. I know it might be too early, but any thoughts you can share.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Yeah. To be honest, you know, Manish, a little too early in the process. Like we have called out, you know, the India listing is more, you know, a long-term kind of an strategy kind of, you know, priority considering that, you know, MakeMyTrip's core business is in the India market, right? We are kind of, you know, like Deepak has called out, you know, this involves multiple streams to be kind of worked upon, and that work is ongoing. Do we have a clear indicative timeline? Probably not yet. We'll keep, you know, you posted as we kind of, you know, keep getting closer to it.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Also in terms of, you know, the existing listing and the potential India listing, clearly India does not allow dual listing as such, right? Therefore, you know, to begin with there will be multiple listings that we'll have within the group. That's very, very likely. Over longer term, we'll kind of aim towards moving to a singular fungible structure, you know, subject to the regulatory and, you know, kind of, you know, rules and regulations from a point of view of making sure that the stakeholder valuation is optimized, right? We'll keep that in mind. We'll share more color as we get closer to the process.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Very clear. Just last question if I can sneak in. Rajesh, thank you so much for all the color on AI and the initiatives there.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Anything that you can maybe share on, in the last few months, all the development around agentic commerce, and you talked about your own Myra, where you can also complete payments. Do you think there are any advantages that frontier models bring where maybe there's a possibility that, you know, online travel traffic could shift to them if agentic commerce evolves to a place where consumers may not come to OTAs? Maybe your thoughts on in what scenario could agentic commerce be negative for MakeMyTrip or for the OTA industry in general? That'd be helpful. Thank you.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

You know, and let's see how it evolves, Manish. Our view right now is, and we have studied it very, very deep, and we continue to as you saw, and that is what I was just trying to sort of give a lot more sort of, deep color and, the way we are looking at AI from an opportunity standpoint as well. To answer your specific question, you know, I think we should keep in mind specific to the OTA model, there are few fundamental moats that it brings to the table, which is going to be, I mean, never say never. It's not going to be an impossible task to disrupt, but it's going to be really highly challenging task.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Those sort of four big moats are, you know, fragmented supply underneath. I mean, you know, imagine the supply that is, you know, in the hotel and accommodations space, including the homestays. It's really fragmented. There is a lot of heavy lifting that we need to do as OTAs, and we've been doing it over the years, for it to, you know, come online, you know, to sort of leverage the power of online platform. There is fulfillment and experience on the post-sale side in terms of just handholding the customer in case of any needs that after he completes or she completes the transaction that they might have.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

There's so much of disruption that takes place in the travel space in general. You know, there is another sort of very deep work that has happened where OTAs have done in the OTA.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

you know, there is a deep funnel work that has happened in the OTA model, especially in the emerging markets is the payment side, where it's kind of underestimated the number of options and the number of, you know, sort of promotional activities that goes on with the commercial alignment and the arrangements with multiple sort of partners at the on the payments front. Last but not the least, which is more specific to MakeMyTrip than maybe the rest of, you know, the players in the market, is that we've also consciously built capabilities to make our platform like super comprehensive with potentially every single service being offered and tightly sort of coupled and decoupled at the same time, you know, as the need be from a consumer point of view.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Now, when you bring in all of these elements together, you know, it is hard to sort of imagine that for a desired result for the customer, it is going to be an easy thing for an involved sort of buying experience like travel for just do a quick and dirty job on agentic e-commerce and bringing, you know, both the supply and the demand side at the same place, without, you know, any friction. I guess it's not going to be an easy thing to do. It's going to take a lot and, you know, do we see any of the horizontal players sort of venturing into it at this point in time?

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

In fact, they have already stated that they want to probably focus a lot more on the, on the planning and the discovery step of the overall journey and not necessarily go deep because it's not easy and probably not their DNA to go really deep in the funnel. Having said this, you know, we on MakeMyTrip will leave no stone unturned is the kind of sort of positioning and direction that I was trying to call out as part of my section in the script.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

To ensure that, you know, leveraging this technology, whatever it takes, that we continue to be the first place of choice for all the new users for travel when they come online, as well as for the existing users to make sure that we end up sort of providing a stellar experience even in the sort of new transformational phase, if you will. I guess, you know, we've got our strategies in place on both sides, watching the space very carefully and see, you know, how we sort of react to it or partner in that scenario if we need to be. But also keep building our own capabilities with a lot of sort of investment and focus on it.

[Manish Adukia, Analyst at Goldman Sachs]

Very clear. Thank you. Back to you, Vipul.

[Vipul Garg, Senior VP of Investor Relations at MakeMyTrip]

Thanks, Manish. The next question is from the line of Sachin Salgaonkar of Bank of America. Sachin, you may please ask your question now.

[Sachin Salgaonkar, Analyst at Bank of America]

Thanks, Vipul, and congrats management on a great set of numbers in terms of, you know, what was turning out to be a very difficult quarter. I have three questions. First question is, you know, to some of the comments what management said in terms of travel moving from, let's say, west of India to east of India. I presume the ticket size for Southeast Asia versus Europe is a bit low. In that context, you know, we should expect a bit of an impact. Again, the domestic traffic does indicate that the month of April is turning out to be soft as compared to what we historically saw. The question out here is, you know, is this led by a higher fuel price increase?

[Sachin Salgaonkar, Analyst at Bank of America]

If so, then, you know, should we see a bit of an impact in overall usage as fuel price continues to increase? Rajesh Mohit, would be great to get a sense that what happened last time when fuel price increased in terms of impact from a demand point of view. That's the first question. Let me pause here.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Yeah, sure, Sachin. Actually, both the observations are not off, Sachin, I must say. You know, your first observation saying from west movement to east, I highlighted that and that's happening. Is the ticket prices going to be lower relatively? The answer is yes. Some part of that gets, you know, sometimes compensated because you extend the stay, depending upon your budget option. Relative to the western side, which is like a mid-haul to long-haul kind of a holiday versus, you know, relatively shorter stay holiday. Even if the same same duration holiday, the ticket size is going to be lower. To that extent, I was saying that, you know, not necessarily that we are saying that there is not going to be any impact.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

There is going to be some impact, but part of it is getting mitigated by this shift, number one. Number two, on the domestic market. Now coming to your second part of the question. Of late now, you know, as I was saying it earlier, in March, it was more sentiment driven, you know, and the real disruption, the flights were not flying, you know, at all. Some impact of the sentiment was there starting with March and spilled over in April, and therefore your observation that April was also relatively slower is also correct. That's what I was mentioning earlier, that starting May, we've started to see seasonality kick in.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

We've started to see that momentum coming back, and now I attribute that to, and that again, I was just trying to allude to in our script as well, that we have seen the bounce back happening very, very quickly as well. Imagine if there was a sentiment which was quite bad in March and April. There was a bit of a, you know, sort of it continued in April. Starting May, we've started to see that sort of general sentiment improving and people starting to book and travel. You know, anecdotally, yesterday was the highest booking account for hotels for us on our platform, just very anecdotally. When you look at it, hotel bookings will be somewhat impacted. To what extent will it be impacted?

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

International definitely relatively higher than the domestic market. On an overall basis, we are hoping that some, you know, impact will get mitigated with some of these positive trends that we are seeing. Historically, just the last question that you asked, that, actually we have seen, when the fuel prices had gone up, if I recall well, to $90 to even closer to $100 a barrel, depending upon which airline you talk about. I think they were able to sustain it historically with some increase in prices and, you know, absorbing some of the cost and some of it get, you know, passing it on to the consumer and demand was not terribly impacted.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

I think the key point here is not necessarily, you know, going up for a week and coming down significantly. If it stays at that level for a little longer period, that is when the impact starts to sort of clearly become more visible. As anecdotally you have seen, Air India announcing that from June onwards they would be reducing number of flights. This April-May-June quarter, because it's a high season quarter, I think they're general directionally going to run the same number of flights. You know, come middle of June, end of June onwards, there's going to be some reductions. SpiceJet has reduced some flights, but IndiGo hasn't, right? It's also a function of how, you know, strong is a particular airline that is operating in the market.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Historically, we have seen, if the demand sentiment continues, then even up to as high as about $90 a barrel kind of a number, $90-$100 was not necessarily leading to a huge impact. The key is going to be how long it kind of stays at that level.

[Sachin Salgaonkar, Analyst at Bank of America]

Correct.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Sorry, Sachin, if I may just add, you know, for the budget-conscious customer, like I had mentioned, you know, we are also trying to make sure that we provide enough and more transport options. You know, those who are finding, you know, flight prices to be kind of a lot more expensive than what they would have preferred it to be, we're kind of trying to dial up, you know, AC bus options or say, you know, cab options for them so as to just make sure that, you know, the overall travel budget is not impacted and the travel demand does not kind of, you know, get lost. Similarly finding, you know, more pocket-friendly options on eastbound kind of international travel versus westbound.

[Sachin Salgaonkar, Analyst at Bank of America]

Thanks, Mohit. Very clear. Very quickly my second and third question. Second question, you guys have not changed your EBITDA guidance adjusted EBIT as a percentage of GMV. I presume that indicates, you know, for a foreseeable future, it could be in the range of 1.8%-2%. This is despite, you know, the mix shift happening in favor of high-margin hotel. It's understandable given where things are. Just wanted to confirm. You know, Mohit, would love to get your thoughts on how to think about a medium-term margin out there. Third question is more a clarification on some of the earlier comments.

[Sachin Salgaonkar, Analyst at Bank of America]

From what I understand, you know, there will be two listings, U.S. listed and India listed for some point, and eventually at some point in future, the U.S. entity might be delisted, subject to regulations. Is that what you guys meant? I just wanted to clarify on that. Thanks.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Yeah, sure. On the first one, you're right, Sachin. In view of the current, you know, volatility in the travel demand, I think we'd kind of want to continue to remain in the 1.8%-2% kind of a, you know, margin guidance. It'll be good to kind of, you know, remain there because I think we'll need a little more, you know, stability in the travel environment before we kind of revisit this guidance. You're kind of absolutely right on that. Secondly, yes, on the potential India listing, like I've said, you know, India does not offer dual listing, right?

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Therefore, in a manner of sorts, you know, the currently listed, you know, entity of Mauritius will also remain on the U.S. bourses while we'll kind of take India entity to India capital markets. Over a longer-term period, there are a variety of ways through which, you know, fungibility can be created, and we'll try and put a place and a structure that kind of facilitates that. Beyond that, if you really look at it, even from an investor's point of view, you know, a large part of our investor base actually has the ability to invest both in India as well as in U.S. Therefore, to a large extent, that fungibility in some form and shape exists even today.

[Sachin Salgaonkar, Analyst at Bank of America]

Got it. Thank you, and all the best.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Thanks, Sachin.

[Vipul Garg, Senior VP of Investor Relations at MakeMyTrip]

Thank you. Thanks, Sachin. The next question is from the line of Vijit Jain of Citi. Vijit, you may please ask your question now.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Yeah. Thanks. Can you hear me?

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Yes.

[Vipul Garg, Senior VP of Investor Relations at MakeMyTrip]

Yes. Please go ahead.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Yeah. Thank you. Just, you know, double-clicking on your comments on trends since May. A, you know, I am mindful that you last year, from May, you know, macro had started to go south. To your comment also on yesterday being the highest GBV number for hotels ever, I guess two questions. One, does it mean, broadly speaking, there is a more accelerated shift in mix to hotels from air? Second question related to that, in the comment on, you know, traffic shifting from west to east, is there enough capacity on east, to, you know, kind of support some kind of a surge there, if it continues to persist for some time?

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Vijit, relatively if you see, you know, the capacity is not kind of as constrained on the eastern side, you know, for eastbound travel and therefore we are leveraging that.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

On the overall kind of, you know, trends for the current quarter that we are in, you know. You're right that, you know, last year May and June was subdued because of macro events. We continue to see that, you know, kind of relatively subdued impact continuing on international.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Yeah.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

Domestic is something that we are kind of, you know, continuing to dial up on. Like I had kind of, you know, mentioned during my call-outs, we have been able to drive or spur up demand on the domestic side, through a variety of things which is kind of, you know, going much deeper and wider in terms of accommodation options across the length and breadth of the country. Opening up a lot more kind of leisure destinations, pilgrimage destinations.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Right

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

you know, to offer greater variety to customers. Dialing up a lot of, you know, short duration, you know, drive down kind of, you know, opportunities on the travel side. Also kind of making sure that, you know, in many routes which are not very long in terms of travel by distance, providing kind of, you know, cabs and buses as an alternative to flights. You know, just to kind of meet the budget kind of, you know, aspirations of the various travelers. These are all things that we're kind of using to dial up the domestic demand. We hope we'll continue to kind of, you know, keep delivering demand much ahead of industry growth, you know, in the accommodation segment.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

If you look at it just as an indication, even in Q4, which is a reported quarter, the overall occupancy has actually remained flattish or might even go negative, you know, as per estimates. Therefore, you know, overall growth for the accommodation industry has been almost flattish.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Okay.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

We have posted almost like, you know, 15%+ growth even in the reported quarter. We hope to kind of continue to, you know, kind of, you know, be on that trajectory and keep delivering much better growth on the domestic side while international continues to be under pressure. I mean, you might just see that, you know, until about some time back or until about five or six quarters back, international was kind of, you know, leading the growth charter for us and that has kind of, you know, turned around a little bit.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Sure.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

I think that is the advantage of, you know, being present across kind of, you know, travel options.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

as well as transport options, that we can dial up one versus the other based on, based on prevailing conditions.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Got it. Mohit, just a little clarification on that. In general for you guys, air has been always a pretty important kind of funnel into your hotels business, right? To what you mentioned, hotels have done well in 4Q and are continuing to do well despite all the various headwinds we see on the air side, right? Is there, you know, if you can give me a color of, you know, how your overall funnel has changed over time. You know, what is your overall mix of, you know, people directly coming onto your platform to book hotels first and foremost and those kind of things. That will be super helpful to understand. I just have a follow-up question on AI, if I can.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

On that, Vijit, you know, considering the paucity of time.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Yeah

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

maybe I'll just kind of, you know, suggest that we should look at the overall transport options and then kind of look at that opposite, you know, the accommodation kind of, you know, opportunity.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Okay

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

rather than look at purely versus flight segments, right?

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

That's the reason I was calling out that we should look at probably entire set of transport options, including buses and cabs.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

There you would see that the overall growth on transport continues to be healthy.

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

It's just that air kind of, you know.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Right

[Mohit Kabra, Group COO at MakeMyTrip]

or flights, is lagging. That's helping us, you know, do much better.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Got it.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Vijit, sorry. Just a pointed response to what you were saying, it is very important. Is that, the question that whether air is critical for us, air funnel is very important for us. The answer is absolutely, yes, it continues to be. It is just the market situation, what Mohit is trying to highlight from a consumer point of view. If, for a certain segment of consumers, if air is expensive, they'll move to an alternative mode of transport.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

We are seeing that happening on our platform, and therefore you will see rest of the segments growing. The, you know, the growth rate is pretty robust, whether you see quarter or you see it for the full year. By the way, you know, despite all these headwinds, we didn't really call that out, that number out this time around in the script, but our market share on domestic aviation market despite everything, given that we are growing, we always end up doing better than the industry, is at 30.8%. In this quarter we've actually gained 0.2% as well.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

It continues to be very important. It's just the midterm to long-term view. You know, as I was highlighting as part of the physical infrastructure development, airport infrastructure development is also happening at a very robust pace. That is going to be the one of the important sort of mode of transports to drive growth for the country if you start to look at it from midterm to long-term standpoint.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

It is just the, you know, sort of.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Current conditions.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

temporary cycle headwinds that we have right now. In that context, the consumers tend to shift.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Got it. Rajesh, my next question, my last question is on AI stuff that you guys discussed, including Myra. You know, when we look at the developments on this, a term increasingly being used is a harness, and I've seen some, you know, reports suggesting that when you build a harness around AI and use your own proprietary data, the experience in terms of quality of responses is much better in other use cases, right? I'm just wondering, is it measurable for you guys? You know, you now have launched Myra. It is front and center on the main app. When you go, are you, A, fully combining all of your first-party and proprietary data in that already?

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Can you measure the responses versus what I'd get out of a generic, say, ChatGPT query? If I can sandwich another related question, is it possible to quantify the cost efficiencies that you could get in customer support and engineering?

[Vipul Garg, Senior VP of Investor Relations at MakeMyTrip]

In interest of time, this will be the last question.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Yeah, yeah. Of course.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Yeah, yeah. Sorry. Very quickly, Vijit. Very good question. You know, the answer to the first question, are we using proprietary data? In fact, I had mentioned that very clearly as well, along with the LLMs and marrying the two because and just to ensure that there's a harness layer on top of it to make sure that the results or the responses on Myra are relevant and more accurate, the answer is 100% yes. We've been doing that. That is what, you know, this new launch was. In fact, and I guess the second part of your question is about measurement. Yes, we are able to measure that.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

We have, you know, clear metrics defined on measurement, specifically on quality of conversation, something called, you know, a good conversation versus not so good conversation. There's a clear quality metric attached to it. We've seen some of those sort of data points I've tried to sort of highlight as well. You know, for example, the fact that the conversion on query starting at Myra to the normal funnel is better, because it is deeply engaged, and you are able to find all the answers, et cetera, in one go is better by 10 percentage points. Clearly indicates that, you know, while it's a journey, but the quality has been improving.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

We'll continue to keep sort of progressing well on this journey and keep you all updated on that. On the cost side, you will see this reflecting slowly and gradually. There are a few things that we have already given high, you know, like whether it is, you know, productivity improvement on consumer service side, also on the new code development. All of this is going to eventually reflect somewhere now on the P&L. It's just going to be a bit of a lag effect because there is, you know, It's going to be a journey where there is going to be AI tooling cost, and then there is going to be efficiency kicking in.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

At some point in time, efficiency is going to, you know, sort of, show bigger impact than the additional cost that is coming from the AI tools, right. I think we need to be a little bit patient to see the results, but we are super confident the results will start to reflect in the near future.

[Vijit Jain, Analyst at Citi]

Thank you, and best of luck. Thank you.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]

Thank you. Thank you.

[Vipul Garg, Senior VP of Investor Relations at MakeMyTrip]

Thank you, Vijit. This was our last question. Over to you, Rajesh, for your closing remarks.

[Rajesh Magow, Co-Founder and Group CEO at MakeMyTrip]
