The company shared these plans alongside its financial results for the first quarter of FY26, which saw a 10% year-on-year increase in sales bookings to ₹4,450 crore. Total income for the quarter stood at ₹3,624.7 crore, a notable rise from ₹2,918.3 crore during the same period last year. With a robust portfolio that includes 110 million sq ft of completed projects and over 130 million sq ft under ongoing and planned development, Lodha is positioning itself as a leading real estate player in India.
Lodha’s strategy aligns with the broader trend of consolidation in India’s real estate sector, where a few large players are increasing their dominance in major urban markets. The company’s success in MMR has provided a strong foundation, and its recent forays into Pune and Bengaluru have been met with positive responses. Building on this momentum, Lodha now plans to establish a presence in the Delhi-NCR region as well.
In a post-results earnings call held on July 28, Managing Director and CEO Abhishek Lodha stated that the company expects to finalize one or more land deals in Delhi-NCR during the current fiscal year. The first residential project launch in the region is targeted for the next financial year, with the initial entry taking place in the form of a pilot phase. The company intends to begin with a limited number of projects and moderate investment to test the market dynamics before scaling up operations.
Abhishek Lodha emphasized that the Delhi-NCR region holds long-term strategic importance for the company, but the entry will be gradual and measured. Similar to its approach in Pune and Bengaluru, Lodha plans to first build its supply chain, understand consumer preferences, and optimize its sales network before committing to large-scale development in NCR.
The expansion comes at a time when India’s real estate sector is experiencing a revival, driven by strong end-user demand, stable interest rates, and improved infrastructure across Tier 1 cities. Lodha’s move aligns with its ambition to be a dominant national player with a presence in all key growth markets.
As it eyes a broader footprint, the company is also focusing on capital efficiency and delivery discipline, two key parameters that have allowed it to maintain investor confidence even during periods of market uncertainty. Its latest performance underscores this discipline, with steady revenue growth and new project launches helping drive bookings.
With its existing scale, proven execution, and brand recognition, Lodha Developers appears well-positioned to achieve its growth goals by 2030. The company’s upcoming entry into NCR, combined with deepening presence in MMR, Pune, and Bengaluru, signals a new phase of ambition and competitiveness in India’s evolving real estate landscape.
