Revenue
Gross bookings per Wayanad listing averaged ₹260,964 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Kerala average: ₹317,982), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
The average Wayanad listing brought in ₹67,100 in December, its best month, and ₹18,400 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 38% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 4.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

Profit
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Wayanad Airbnb took in ₹260,964 in the 12 months to September 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about ₹35,500 a month after running costs.
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.
