Dev Accelerator Posts Strong Q2 on Centre Expansion

Dev Accelerator Limited, a managed office space provider with a strong presence in India’s Tier-2 cities, has reported a robust performance for the quarter and half year ended 30 September 2025. The company continued its growth trajectory driven by new centre additions, improved utilisation and a sharper mix of enterprise clients.

Financial Highlights (Converted to Millions/Billions) Q2 FY26 vs Q2 FY25 (Rs crore converted)

Revenue from operations: Rs 51.84 crore ? Rs 518.4 million, up 50.4 per cent

EBITDA: Rs 26.43 crore ? Rs 264.3 million, up 45.3 per cent

Cash EBIT: Rs 19.81 crore ? Rs 198.1 million, up 531.9 per cent

PBT: Rs 2.64 crore ? Rs 26.4 million, up 140.1 per cent

Performance Overview and Key Updates

Revenue growth in Q2 and H1 FY26 was driven by the addition of new centres and scale-up of existing locations. Mature centres entering full-period revenue contributed to higher utilisation and operating leverage, supporting margin stability.

A stronger mix of enterprise clients and premium add-ons—including managed IT, dedicated bays and meeting suites—boosted realisation per seat. With healthy occupancy, revenue per sq. ft. improved and EBITDA margins strengthened as fit-outs ramped.

DevX Ahmedabad, India’s largest managed office campus in a Tier-2 city, achieved 95 per cent occupancy even before commencing full operations. The 3.15-lakh sq. ft. centre is expected to add Rs 25 million in monthly revenue and around 3,990 seats, improving ROCE and profitability due to higher-rent enterprise clients and long-tenure contracts.

The company continues to benefit from India’s rising demand for flexible workspaces, particularly in Bharat markets where enterprise adoption is accelerating. This includes robust traction from mid-to-large enterprises and GCCs expanding into Tier-2 locations.

Dev Accelerator also utilised its IPO proceeds to refinance borrowings. Long-term debt reduced from Rs 988.94 million in FY25 to Rs 876.7 million in H1 FY26, while interest costs declined to Rs 111.27 million, improving overall financial efficiency.

With a strong pipeline, improving scale economics, and rising enterprise demand, Dev Accelerator remains well positioned for sustained, margin-accretive growth across Tier-2 India.
