Operations

business model. It has established itself as a market
leader in the family holiday segment in India and is the
largest vacation ownership company globally outside the
United States.

Your Company enjoys strong brand equity and is
positioned as a provider of quality vacation experiences
for families. Leveraging this strength, your Company has
articulated its strategy and aspiration to become India’s
#1 Leisure Hospitality Company. It aims to address the
broader and growing hospitality landscape in the country.

deliver enhanced guest experiences and building new
capabilities through entry into luxury leisure hospitality
with Mahindra Signature Resorts.

During the year under review, this strategy was supported
by strong financial and operational performance. The
year was defined by the launch of Keystone, the most
significant product overhaul in the Company’s history.
At the same time, your Company expanded its inventory
portfolio and remains on track to achieve 10,000 keys by
FY 2030. With a focus on enhancing guest experience,
your Company exited certain resorts based on customer
feedback, curated differentiated experiences and
integrated AI and technology across multiple touchpoints.

Keystone Launch - Membership Portfolio
Revamp

Towards the end of Q3 FY 2026, your Company launched
Keystone, replacing the legacy membership construct
with a simplified suite of 5/10/15/20-year tenure plans.
Each plan is built around a season-mix framework—
Off-Peak (Jade), Peak (Ivory) and Super-Peak (Ebony)—
providing members with greater flexibility in planning
their holidays.

The redesign also rationalised the number of SKUs,
making the portfolio easier for sales teams to position
and simpler for members to understand. The launch was
well received in the market, with early indicators being
encouraging. A number of existing members chose to
upgrade to Keystone plans during Q4 FY 2026, signalling
strong product resonance. Referral-led sales have also
started picking up as awareness spreads, contributing to
higher sales while supporting improved acquisition costs.

Inventory Expansion

During the year, your Company added approximately
900 gross keys through the launch of seven new resorts
and the expansion of five existing resorts, taking total
inventory to 6,228 rooms as of 31st March 2026. Your
Company currently has three ongoing projects and has
initiated development of five additional resorts during
the year.

Together with Holiday Club Resorts Oy (“HCR”), comprising
35 resorts and other affiliations, Club Mahindra members
now have access to 125 resorts across India, Asia
and Europe.

Resort Transformation

Your Company has initiated a comprehensive, multi-year
upgrade of its existing resorts. This initiative has already
transformed nearly 100 keys and will be extended to an
additional 300 keys next year. At the same time, acting
on guest feedback, your Company exited approximately
500 keys.

These exits reflect a deliberate shift towards higher-quality
resorts that provide differentiated guest experiences.
Properties that no longer met brand standards or
consistently received adverse customer feedback were
phased out.

Guest Experience

Delivering an exceptional guest experience continues
to be a top priority. Your Company has leveraged AI
and technology by deploying a sophisticated suite of
intelligent interventions across the customer lifecycle.
Examples include a digital platform for consistent sales
presentations, a booking recommendation engine,
paperless check-in procedures and an integrated system
for capturing customer feedback.

Furthermore, your Company has expanded in-resort
offerings by introducing more engaging and curated
experiences for different guest segments. From heritage
walks and bread-making workshops to private yacht
outings and bonfire evenings, these initiatives aim to
encourage deeper engagement with each destination.

Your Company has also developed a digital platform that
allows members to browse, book and pay for experiences
prior to arrival at the resort.

Key Priorities for FY 2027

For the year ahead, your Company’s focus will be on four
key priorities:

o Accelerating Keystone sales

o Increasing quality-focused inventory addition

o Curated & engaging experiences across resorts

o Leverage AI and technology across workflows to
enhance both guest experience and operational
efficiency

III. Environment Conservation:

Taking care of the environment is not just

conservation helps build resilient societies,
reduce climate risks and promote responsible
resource use, creating shared value for both the
planet and people.

As part of environment sustainability, your
Company has been championing clean
cooking solutions, solar energy access and
water conservation cause in remote areas
of Gir-Gujarat, Raigad-Maharashtra and
Mysuru-Karnataka. Through these efforts, 561
households and 8 schools are using smokeless
Chulhas, an effective clean cooking solution
that has reduced smoke emissions, improved
indoor air quality and lessened the physical
burden of daily firewood collection over the
usage of traditional cookstoves. These stoves
have reduced the average cooking time by 20%.

Many households still live without reliable
access to electricity. Limited infrastructure,
affordability and frequent outages (especially
during monsoons) leave families in darkness for
long periods, impacting safety, education and
livelihoods. Lack of street lighting also raises
security concerns, particularly for women.
Your company provided access to solar power
to 217 households, 61 solar streetlights and
electrification in 3 schools, enhancing safety
and providing access to public spaces.

In FY 2026, your Company made investment
in sustainable water resource management
projects through construction of 60 percolation
wells in 8 government schools across 7 villages.

annual water recharge potential of ~7.69 million
liters improving water accessibility around the
year for supporting 10,000 beneficiaries.

These initiatives in environment are mapped to
SDG 6 and SDG 7.

SDG 6- Clean Water & Sanitation
SDG 7- Affordable & Clean Energy
