Profit
Is an Airbnb in Chottupara Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Chottupara Airbnb took in ₹575,515 in the 12 months to May 2025, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ₹1,690,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₹104,200 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.
These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Chottupara's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Chottupara listings are booked on 24% or more of their nights, against 14% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₹6,500 adds about ₹65,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₹14,900 a night or more, against a median of ₹6,500. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about ₹57,600 a year.
- Open for the busy months. December brought the average listing about ₹135,000, against ₹55,600 in March, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about ₹140,800 a month, against ₹48,000 for the average one.
