You are trying to focus on not letting people be burned alive but the laytonized cross examination theme goes too hard

*kisses fan art on the forehead and then tosses it into the void*

Another star wars illustration for that one discord im in that obsesses over an ao3 series where Luke is hired to work on Vader’s ship and slowly de-corrupts Vader… but instead of turning him “good” he just sorta turns him feral. (Arguably, that is Anakin’s natural state.)

🍋 Lemon Tree Hotels Expands Again: New Darjeeling Property and a Year of Steady Growth

Lemon Tree Hotels Limited (LTHL), India’s leading mid-market hospitality chain, has just signed a new property in Darjeeling, West Bengal. The 65-room hotel under the Keys Prima brand is the latest addition in a string of signings that reflect the company’s bullish stance on asset-light expansion across India.

📍 A Fresh Address in Darjeeling

The new hotel, set to open in FY 2026, will be managed by Lemon Tree’s wholly owned subsidiary, Carnation Hotels Private Limited. It will feature 65 rooms, a restaurant, a meeting room, and public spaces for leisure and corporate travelers. Located close to the Darjeeling railway station and with road access to Bagdogra Airport, it’s positioned for high visibility and accessibility.

🏨 Lemon Tree’s Pipeline: What’s Been Signed Recently?

🕒 In the Last 3 Months:

Estimated 3 to 4 hotel signings, including:

📅 In the Last 1 Year:

Lemon Tree’s portfolio has grown from ~180 to over 210 hotels (including pipeline properties).

That means the company signed at least 30 new properties in the past year, most under management or franchise agreements.

The company continues to focus on high-demand micro-markets across India, especially in leisure and religious circuits.

💼 Revenue and Profit Impact: Crunching the Numbers

Lemon Tree’s strategy revolves around managed/franchised hotels, which means it doesn’t own the real estate but earns a management fee (typically 8–12% of total revenue) from each hotel.

📈 For the Darjeeling Property:

Expected Annual Revenue (hotel level): ₹6–7.5 crore

Estimated Fee Income for Lemon Tree: ₹50–90 lakhs/year

Revenue starts from FY 2027 (after the hotel opens in FY26)

🏨 Impact from All Acquisitions in Last 12 Months:

30 new properties × average 60–80 rooms

Estimated aggregate annual revenue (hotel level): ₹450–550 crore

Lemon Tree’s potential fee income: ₹35–50 crore annually once all hotels are operational

These properties are expected to go live in staggered timelines over FY26–FY28

This marks a significant boost to recurring income with minimal capital investment, improving both margins and return on capital employed (ROCE).

🔍 Strategic Outlook

Lemon Tree’s multi-brand portfolio includes:

Aurika Hotels & Resorts (Luxury)

Lemon Tree Premier (Upper Midscale)

Red Fox Hotels (Economy)

Keys Prima, Select & Lite (Midscale to Budget)

By leveraging its asset-light model, Lemon Tree continues to deepen its presence across India and abroad (Dubai, Bhutan, Nepal), reduce risk, and strengthen profitability.

💬 Final Word

The Darjeeling hotel is more than just a scenic location; it's a testament to Lemon Tree’s disciplined, data-driven expansion. With 30+ new hotels added to its pipeline in a year and a clear path to increased fee-based revenue, Lemon Tree Hotels is not just growing — it's growing smart.

a single mom padmé idea that’s been living in my brain lately

[ note: the clothing inspiration for these designs were taken from bedouin, tuareg, iranian, and saudi arabian references, as well as the original tatooinian designs + padmé’s nieces in the aotc cut scenes. i wanted my version of tatooine to more accurately reflect what desert cultures look like in the real world and just be more practical in general ]
