Future Outlook and Strategy
Promoters have voluntarily chosen to draw zero salary until sustained profitability returns, showing full alignment with shareholders. These steps are designed to move EaseMyTrip beyond a flight-led model into an integrated travel, hospitality, and lifestyle ecosystem.
While this requires short-term capex, it is aimed at creating sustainable profitability and shareholder value over the long term.
