Profit
Is an Airbnb in Budhanilkantha Municipality Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Budhanilkantha Municipality Airbnb took in Rs 1,382,010 in the 12 months to April 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about Rs 84,000 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about Rs 169,000 a month.
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 Budhanilkantha Municipality's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Budhanilkantha Municipality listings are booked on 45% or more of their nights, against 21% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of Rs 2,380 adds about Rs 23,800 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge Rs 3,605 a night or more, against a median of Rs 2,380. 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 Rs 138,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. May brought the average listing about Rs 548,000, against Rs 48,800 in September, 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 Rs 229,000 a month, against Rs 115,000 for the average one.
