Among the 28 companies, a handful dominated the charts. Bengaluru-based Prestige Estates Projects Ltd emerged as the leading listed player in the April-June quarter of FY26, with pre-sales of ₹12,126.4 crore.
Prestige Estates – ₹12,126.4 crore (highest sales; Bengaluru-based)
DLF Ltd – ₹11,425 crore (luxury homes in Gurugram led growth)
Godrej Properties – ₹7,082 crore (consistent pan-India demand)
Lodha Developers (Macrotech) – ₹4,450 crore (Mumbai-focused)

Omaxe Ltd – ₹2,001 crore
Oberoi Realty – ₹1,639 crore

Not all listed developers disclosed sales bookings, but the data still provides a comprehensive snapshot of the sector’s trajectory.
The top five players—Prestige, DLF, Godrej, Lodha, and Signature Global—contributed 71% of total sales bookings. This highlights a flight to safety: post-COVID, homebuyers prefer big, branded developers over smaller, unlisted firms.
In FY25, 26 major listed developers sold ₹1.62 lakh crore worth of properties. Godrej Properties led with sales of nearly ₹30,000 crore for the full year. If the current momentum continues, FY26 could surpass last year’s record sales.
Higher prices ahead? Strong demand and limited supply from trusted developers could keep property prices firm, especially in metros like Bengaluru, Gurugram, and Mumbai. Safer bets on big names: Buyers are increasingly choosing branded developers to avoid project delays and ensure delivery. Luxury segment boom: DLF’s Gurugram success and Prestige’s luxury launches show appetite for high-end housing is robust.
