Leela Palaces Hotels & Resorts is adding two new arms to its portfolio as it looks to expand its luxury hospitality footprint under “The Leela” brand. In separate stock exchange filings, the company said it has incorporated two wholly owned subsidiaries—Leela Luxe Hotels & Resorts Private Limited and Leela Nirvana Resorts Private Limited—both structured to own, operate, manage and develop high‑end hotels and resorts in India.
Leela Luxe Hotels & Resorts Private Limited was incorporated on November 28, 2025. The subsidiary has an authorised share capital of Rs 5 lakh and an initial paid‑up capital of Rs 1,000, fully subscribed in cash by Leela Palaces Hotels & Resorts along with nominee shareholders.
Leela Nirvana Resorts Private Limited followed on December 19, 2025, with a similar structure: authorised capital of Rs 5 lakh and paid‑up capital of Rs 1,000, again entirely held by the listed parent. Both entities are yet to commence commercial operations.
In its regulatory disclosures, the company said both Leela Luxe and Leela Nirvana fall within the “Hotels and Resorts” industry. The stated main object for each is to “own, operate, manage and develop luxury hotels and resorts under ‘The Leela’ brand”.
Both units, therefore, could be dedicated vehicles for future properties or projects rather than unrelated diversification.
Leela Palaces Hotels & Resorts, which operates some of India’s best‑known luxury hotels, has in recent years been focusing on brand‑led growth after a restructuring of ownership and listing, and the creation of these subsidiaries appears aligned with that strategy of building out “The Leela” as a premium hospitality platform. In October, it rechristened itself from Schloss Bangalore Limited to Leela Palaces Hotels & Resorts Limited.
