Viceroy Hotels emerges from insolvency, expands hotel portfolio
Viceroy Hotels had earlier entered the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process after accumulating heavy debt under its previous promoter. Creditors were owed more than Rs 1,150 crore, while the company faced the possibility of liquidation. Trading in its shares was suspended during the insolvency process.The company’s turnaround began in October 2023, when the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal approved a resolution plan submitted by Anirudh Agro Farms. Fresh funds were subsequently brought into the company through its subsidiary, Loko Hospitality.
Following implementation of the resolution plan, Viceroy Hotels resumed trading on the NSE and BSE in April 2024.
The company currently operates Marriott and Courtyard by Marriott properties in Hyderabad. It has also launched a rights issue to raise around Rs 105 crore at Rs 115 per share. The issue is also aimed at increasing public shareholding to meet regulatory requirements after promoter ownership rose sharply following the resolution process.
Viceroy Hotels plans further expansion
The company is also looking to expand its hotel portfolio. In December 2025, shareholders approved the Rs 206-crore acquisition of SLN Terminus Hotels and Resorts.The property operates Marriott-branded executive apartments and is expected to add another asset to Viceroy Hotels’ portfolio as the company pursues further growth.
