Key Points
- Pre-sales grew 9% year-on-year to INR 155 crore, reflecting strong customer demand and project portfolio strength.
- Development pipeline expanded to an estimated GDV of INR 12,800 crore, with INR 3,000 crore planned for launch in FY27, providing strong growth visibility.
- Balance sheet remains robust with net debt of only INR 5 crore and a net debt-to-equity ratio of 0.01 times, offering significant financial flexibility.
- Gross profit margin remained resilient at 29.1%, demonstrating strong project economics despite market dynamics.
- Company is expanding into commercial development and customer-centric initiatives like Arcade PinRoute and Assist360, diversifying revenue streams and enhancing customer relationships.
- Net profit declined year-on-year due to lower other income from reduced investment returns on IPO proceeds and increased employee costs.
- Employee base expanded from 213 to 277, increasing operational costs and pressuring EBITDA margins, which fell to 18.9%.
- Pre-sales growth of 9% is modest, and management expects only INR 500 crore from new launches this year, indicating a conservative outlook.
- Launch of the Anand Nagar project is delayed to FY29 due to height restrictions from a wireless station, impacting near-term revenue potential.
- EBITDA margin guidance of 25-26% is lower than historical levels, reflecting ongoing cost pressures and a more cautious profitability outlook.
