Indiqube Spaces delivered its highest-ever quarterly revenue in Q1FY27, reporting ₹428 crore, a 37% year-on-year growth from ₹313 crore in the corresponding period last year. The integrated managed spaces platform also saw its net profit after tax (PAT) surge 91% to ₹35 crore on an IGAAP-equivalent basis, up from ₹18.5 crore in Q1FY26. This performance underscores the company’s ability to scale profitability alongside top-line expansion.

The results were driven by strong operating leverage. EBITDA increased 34% to ₹87 crore, maintaining a healthy margin of 20%. EBIT grew even faster at 59% to ₹55 crore. The company’s leadership attributed this momentum to improving utilization across the portfolio and a richer mix of value-added services.

Operational Metrics

Occupancy levels strengthened during the quarter, reflecting robust customer demand. Steady-state occupancy—defined as the occupancy of mature centers older than 12 months—reached 90%. Overall occupancy improved to 86%.

Value-added services (VAS) continued to scale rapidly, contributing significantly to the revenue mix. VAS revenue reached ₹72 crore, increasing its contribution to operating revenue from 11% in Q1FY26 to 17% in Q1FY27. This shift indicates a deepening engagement with existing clients beyond basic workspace rentals.

Financial Performance

Recurring revenue constituted the bulk of the top line at ₹395 crore, up from ₹307 crore year-ago. One-time revenue, largely project-based, rose to ₹33 crore from ₹7 crore, supported by ongoing engagements in design and build solutions.

What the Numbers Show

A key analytical observation is the divergence between Ind AS-reported profitability and IGAAP-equivalent metrics due to lease accounting standards. Under Ind AS 116, the company reported a loss before tax of (₹30 crore) and a loss after tax of (₹24 crore). However, on an IGAAP-equivalent basis—which excludes non-cash depreciation on right-of-use (ROU) assets and interest on lease liabilities—the company posted a profit before tax of ₹43 crore and PAT of ₹35 crore.

The total impact of Ind AS 116 adjustments (depreciation on ROU assets plus interest on lease liabilities) amounted to ₹264 crore in Q1FY27, compared to ₹213 crore in Q1FY26. This highlights that the underlying cash-generating capability of the business remains strong despite accounting losses. Adjusted Cash EBIT, which adds back finance lease income to Cash EBIT, stood at ₹75 crore, representing an 18% margin on revenue from operations, up from 17% in the prior quarter.

Balance Sheet and Lease Liabilities

The company clarified that lease liabilities should not be viewed as traditional debt when calculating debt-equity ratios, as they represent future rent payments under long-term landlord contracts rather than borrowings. The average client lock-in period is approximately 3.5 years, aligned with capex payback cycles. IndiQube maintains a portfolio of 10.61 million sq ft under management, with 9.66 million sq ft being rent-paying area.
