LGT Business Connextions IPO Review

 by Paresh Gordhandas, CA & Research Analyst

LGT Business Connextions Ltd, established in 2016, operates as a service aggregator in the travel and tourism sector, connecting customers to hotels, airlines, car rentals, cruises, and third-party travel partners. The company has built an extensive service portfolio, including MICE travel (meetings, incentives, conferences, exhibitions), cruise and hotel bookings, visa facilitation, ticketing, sightseeing arrangements, trade fair tours, and customised travel packages for both corporate and retail clients. Its IATA accreditation for ticketing and tie-ups with domestic and international accommodation providers enhance credibility.

Financial Performance
The company has demonstrated robust growth over the last three years:

  • Revenue grew from ₹61.18 crore in FY23 to ₹100.81 crore in FY25.

  • Profit After Tax (PAT) improved steadily from ₹2.97 crore in FY23 to ₹5.22 crore in FY25.EBITDA rose from ₹4.04 crore in FY23 to ₹7.65 crore in FY25, indicating improving operating efficiency.

  • Net Worth expanded from ₹3.60 crore in FY23 to ₹12.45 crore in FY25.

On the flip side, borrowings increased sharply from ₹2.50 crore in FY23 to ₹9.58 crore in FY25, suggesting higher leverage for growth. While this reflects expansion, it also brings in risk, given the competitive nature of the travel industry.

Chanakya’s View
LGT Business Connextions is a niche player in the tourism services aggregation space, benefiting from the rising demand for organised travel, especially in MICE and customised travel solutions. Strong revenue growth and profitability are positives, but the rising debt levels and concentration in the cyclical travel sector warrant caution. For investors, the IPO offers an entry into a growth-oriented but competitive business model.
