Gross bookings per Prayagraj listing averaged ₹151,746 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Uttar Pradesh average: ₹193,001), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Prayagraj listing brings in ₹41,700 in March, its best month, and ₹19,900 in July, its slowest. January runs within 5% of March, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 32% 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 4.8 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.
March earns about twice what July does

Profit
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Prayagraj Airbnb took in ₹151,746 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 ₹22,800 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.

A small group of listings earns several times more per open night than the rest.
