Speaking about the company’s performance during the quarter, Chairman and Managing Director Vikas Oberoi said, “Demand for luxury homes remains strong, fuelled by rising aspirations and a growing desire for an enhanced lifestyle. We are pleased to report another healthy quarter, driven by successful tower launch at Elysian, Oberoi Garden City Goregaon. At Oberoi Realty, we remain focused on creating developments that foster vibrant communities — through thoughtfully designed homes, premium retail, world-class hotels, and sustainable living experiences.”
Oberoi Realty has started its preparations towards new project launches for the rest of the year, and it is pursuing attractive land acquisitions, he added. Vikas Oberoi further noted that the Indian economy continues to display remarkable resilience and sustainable growth despite a challenging global economic and geopolitical landscape. “With strong macroeconomic fundamentals, a growing aspirational population, robust domestic demand, and a stable external position, India is placed favourably for growth amongst the major global economies,” he said.
