Godrej Properties, known for its high-quality real estate projects under the Godrej brand, has achieved sales bookings worth over Rs 13,800 crore in the first six months of FY24.

The housing market in India has shown a strong post-pandemic recovery, driven by pent-up demand and a growing appetite for home ownership. This trend has been particularly evident in the premium and luxury segments, where capital values have appreciated significantly despite price increases. Consumer preference has also shifted towards reputable builders with a proven track record of project execution.
Godrej Properties, one of the leading real estate developers in the country, has a strong presence in major metropolitan regions such as Delhi-NCR, Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), Pune, and Bengaluru. The company has recently expanded its footprint into the Hyderabad market. Macrotech Developers, formerly known as Lodha Developers, operates primarily in MMR, Pune, and Bengaluru.
Godrej Properties' MD and CEO, Gaurav Pandey, expressed his satisfaction with the company's performance, stating, 'We are delighted with the scale-up we have achieved in the past couple of years. The sales bookings of over Rs 13,800 crore in the first half of FY24 surpass our annual bookings in FY23.' This growth is attributed to an improved project mix and strong volume growth.
Macrotech Developers is equally optimistic about the future. The company has already achieved 21% annual pre-sales growth in the first half of the fiscal year and is well on track to meet its guidance of 20% pre-sales growth for the full year, especially with the festive season approaching. Industry experts are also anticipating a flurry of new launches and strong sales during the current festive quarter.
In summary, the real estate sector in India is witnessing a significant upturn, with both Godrej Properties and Macrotech Developers leading the way. Their strong performance in the first half of FY24 is a clear indication of the robust demand for quality housing and the confidence of consumers in the market.
