The ₹23,500 crore investment is earmarked for completing all residential projects that have been launched. DLF’s robust financial position, with ₹10,429 crore in cash, including ₹7,782 crore held in RERA escrow accounts, ensures the company has the necessary resources to cover the costs. Additionally, DLF has total receivables of ₹37,220 crore from customers who have already purchased homes.
In a recent call with market analysts, DLF’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) reported that the company spent nearly ₹750 crore on construction in the first quarter of the current financial year. This expenditure is expected to increase slightly in the coming months, as DLF continues to push forward with its ambitious project timelines.
Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, DLF has successfully launched new residential projects in key markets such as Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, and Chandigarh. One of the most notable launches this year was DLF Privana North in Gurugram, which saw all 1,164 luxury apartments, valued at ₹11,000 crore, sold within the first quarter. This project is part of a large 116-acre township, where DLF had previously launched and completely sold two other projects, DLF Privana West and DLF Privana South, contributing about ₹12,800 crore in sales to the developer.
In Mumbai, DLF and Trident Realty launched a residential project comprising 416 flats in Andheri West during the last quarter (July−September). All the units were sold quickly, generating approximately ₹2,300 crore in sales. This success underscores the strong demand for high-quality residential properties in these key markets.
DLF achieved its highest-ever sales of ₹21,223 crore in the last financial year, up from ₹14,778 crore in 2023–24 and ₹15,058 crore in 2022–23. For the current financial year, DLF has set a sales target of ₹20,000 to ₹22,000 crore. In the first quarter alone, the company has sold homes worth ₹11,425 crore.
DLF’s business model includes selling homes (residential business) and renting office space (commercial business). The company has completed over 185 projects, totaling more than 352 million square feet of development work to date. Its rental portfolio asset is approximately 46 million square feet.
Looking ahead, DLF has a strong pipeline of future projects, totaling 280 million square feet in planned or constructed space. This pipeline is a testament to DLF’s commitment to sustainable growth and its ability to meet the evolving needs of the real estate market in India.
