EaseMyTrip, one of India’s leading travel-tech platforms, has announced its EMT 2.0 strategy, signaling a major phase of growth through strategic acquisitions and business diversification. Launched earlier in 2025, EMT 2.0 aims to broaden EaseMyTrip’s portfolio from air travel into hotels, holidays, wellness, mobility, and lifestyle services, ensuring a more resilient and high-margin revenue base.

Founder and Chairman Nishant Pitti emphasized that EMT 2.0 is designed to compound trust and distribution across a wider ecosystem. By pairing the company’s scale in flight bookings with higher-margin verticals, EaseMyTrip intends to reduce its reliance on cyclical air travel, create new revenue streams, and provide customers and partners with greater value and convenience. Pitti added that promoters have no plans to sell further stock, highlighting the focus on long-term shareholder value.

The company’s recent Q1 FY26 performance, which showed a decline in PAT, was a result of deliberate investments in high-margin growth areas. Key achievements under EMT 2.0 so far include:

• Expansion of the Hotels and Packages business, which grew 81.2% YoY.

• Significant increase in international presence, with Dubai operations growing 151%.

• Acquisition of premium hospitality and commercial assets to establish a strong domestic and international physical presence.

A central pillar of EMT 2.0 is the acquisition of profitable businesses, targeting up to 49% stakes in established companies that can benefit from EaseMyTrip’s brand, distribution, and customer base. This approach allows the company to add higher-margin revenue streams, strengthening overall profitability.

EaseMyTrip is also focused on building an integrated travel, hospitality, and lifestyle ecosystem. By owning more customer touchpoints, the company aims to improve retention, increase monetization, and enhance long-term profitability. Leveraging 17 years of operations, a debt-free balance sheet, and a network of over 72,000 travel agent partners, EaseMyTrip provides acquired businesses with an instant growth platform.

Under EMT 2.0, the company is also expanding its international footprint, with new offices and subsidiaries, and introducing regional product verticals to achieve deeper market penetration and localisation. These efforts are powered by data-driven strategies and technology-led innovation, enabling the company to deliver personalized and relevant travel solutions to its customers.

EaseMyTrip, founded in 2008, is publicly listed on NSE and BSE and is one of India’s fastest-growing online travel platforms, offering end-to-end travel solutions including air tickets, hotels, holiday packages, rail and bus tickets, taxi rentals, and ancillary services. The platform offers users a zero-convenience fee option for bookings and access to over 400 international and domestic airlines, 2+ million hotels, and multiple travel services.
