Looking to expand its residential real estate business, Bengaluru-based Prestige Estates Projects has been acquiring land parcels outright and also partnering with landowners. According to its latest investor presentation, the company acquired a total of 102 acres of land in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Mumbai in the first quarter of this fiscal year.
These land parcels will be used to develop residential projects with an estimated gross development value (GDV) of ₹20,400 crore. In Hyderabad, Prestige Estates acquired two plots: 28 acres in Tellapur and 37 acres in Pulimamidi. In Bengaluru, the company has acquired three land parcels: 10 acres in Poojanahalli - Devanahalli, 7 acres in Kothanuru, KR Puram, and 10 acres in Ittangur, Sarjapura. At Velachery in Chennai, the company acquired 3.48 acres, and in Mumbai, it acquired 6.3 acres of land.
The presentation did not mention the cost of the land. However, the company's financial performance has been robust. Prestige Estates recently reported a 26 percent increase in its consolidated net profit to ₹292.5 crore during the first quarter of this fiscal year. In the year-ago period, its net profit stood at ₹232.6 crore. The total income rose to ₹2,468.7 crore during the April-June period of this fiscal year from ₹2,024.5 crore in the corresponding period of the preceding year.
Last month, Prestige Estates Projects Ltd reported a four-fold jump in its sales bookings to ₹12,126.4 crore in the first quarter of FY26, primarily due to strong demand for its housing project in Ghaziabad. The company's sales bookings or pre-sales stood at ₹3,029.5 crore in the year-ago period. During the entire last fiscal year, Prestige Estates' sales bookings declined 19 percent to ₹17,023.1 crore, reflecting the impact of deferred launches amid approval delays.
The company has given guidance of achieving ₹27,000 crore worth of sales bookings during the current fiscal year. Prestige Group has delivered over 300 projects and has a pipeline of around 140 projects, solidifying its position as a leading player in the Indian real estate market.
Prestige Group's strategic land acquisitions and strong financial performance underscore its commitment to expanding its residential real estate business. With a robust pipeline of projects and a focus on key cities, the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for quality housing in India.
