Management Commentary by Liberatha Kallat - Chairperson and Managing Director

“We started the current financial year on an extremely strong note, with record high air traffic numbers clocked each month and a growing propensity of passengers to access lounges. We continue to maintain our 100% coverage of airports and railway lounges in the country and have been instrumental in driving majority of the traffic to these lounges. In addition to lounge access, we now offer a bouquet of premium service offerings like Meet & Assists, Airport transfers, Golf sessions, and much more.

Towards the end of this quarter, we signed collaboration with the Plaza Premium Group to expand our Global Lounge coverage network. This expanded network offers members unparalleled access to premium lounges across the world, across 4 continents, including key travel hubs, ensuring a seamless and enhanced travel experience. With increased lounge coverage and access to an extensive network of touchpoints, travelers can look forward to enjoy unparalleled comfort and hospitality at key travel locations worldwide. With this new development, DreamFolks` global touchpoints will increase to an impressive 1700+.

Staying true to our DNA, we work on an asset-light model, lean team structure and continue to be debt-free. We aspire to continue working on adding services to our portfolio, invest in R&D efforts to have a world-class proprietary tech platform and thereby enhance our end-user experience.

We closed the quarter with a strong growth of 66% YOY and the revenue stood at Rs. 2,663 Mn as compared to Rs. 1,603 Mn in Q1FY23. We will continue to focus on growth and maintain our leadership position in India while spreading our wings globally”.
