The stock of EaseMyTrip has been in the spotlight this week.
After hovering near its recent lows, the stock suddenly picked up momentum and moved sharply higher over a few sessions.
The timing wasn't random. A board decision, an institutional bulk deal, and the latest quarterly numbers all came in close succession.
That combination appears to have shifted sentiment around the stock.
Let's look at what exactly happened...
On 16 February 2026, Easy Trip Planners Limited informed the stock exchanges that its board approved a proposal to raise up to Rs 5 billion (bn).
The company stated that the funds may be raised through one or more permissible routes, including a rights issue, qualified institutions placement (QIP), preferential issue, or private placement, subject to necessary approvals.
As per the disclosure, the proposed capital raise is intended to support expansion in selected business segments and strengthen the company's technology platform.
On Monday, 17 February 2026, CRAFT Emerging Market Fund PCC - Citadel Capital Fund purchased 20 million (m) shares of Easy Trip Planners Limited through a bulk deal on the NSE.
The transaction was executed at Rs 6.77 per share. The total deal value was about Rs 135.4 m.
The acquisition represents about 0.5% of the company's equity share capital and was disclosed under the exchange's bulk deal reporting framework.
Bulk deals are required to be reported when trades exceed 0.5% of a company's equity shares in a single trading session.
For the quarter ended 31 December 2025, Easy Trip Planners reported revenue from operations of Rs 1,517 m and EBITDA of Rs 139 m. Gross booking revenue stood at Rs 22,132 m.
The mix of revenue showed a gradual shift toward non-air segments. Hotels and holiday packages accounted for 30.4% of revenue from operations during the quarter. Room nights increased to 4.6 lakh in the December 2025 quarter from 2.5 lakh in the same quarter last year.
At the same time, the trains, buses, and other segment recorded 2.4 lakh transactions during the quarter, compared to 3.6 lakh in the corresponding period last year.
Dubai operations recorded gross booking revenue of Rs 3,975.8 m in the quarter, compared to Rs 1,704.8 m in the same quarter last year. For the nine months ended 31 December 2025, Dubai gross booking revenue stood at Rs 10,773.6 m.
Going ahead, attention will be on how the company deploys the proposed Rs 5 bn capital raise and whether it accelerates expansion in selected business segments.
Another development to track is the partnership announced on 30 January 2026 with ProXpense, an AI-driven travel and expense management platform. The integration is aimed at combining EaseMyTrip's travel booking services with ProXpense's automated expense management system for corporate clients.
This collaboration expands the company's corporate travel offering by linking bookings directly with expense workflows, policy controls, and reporting systems.
Investors will also watch whether growth in the hotels and holiday packages segment sustains, and whether Dubai operations continue to scale at the current pace.
EaseMyTrip shares have seen a sharp rebound over the past few trading sessions.
The stock closed at Rs 6.61 on 13 February 2026. It moved to Rs 7.01 on 16 February 2026, and as of 18 February 2026, it is trading at Rs 10.36.
This marks a gain of nearly 57% in just three trading sessions.
Despite the recent surge, the stock remains below its 52-week high of Rs 14.02. But it has moved significantly away from its 52-week low of Rs 6.11, a strong bounce from recent lows.
