Puravankara Ltd, a prominent player in the Indian real estate market, has recently made headlines with its impressive business update for Q2 FY25, showcasing substantial growth across key performance metrics. The company reported an 18% quarter-on-quarter growth in sales, achieving a total sales value of ₹1,331 crore, up from ₹1,128 crore in the previous quarter. This remarkable performance highlights the company's resilience and adaptability in a dynamic market landscape.

The first half of FY25 has proven fruitful for Puravankara, with total sales reaching ₹2,459 crore. This figure underscores the company’s strategic focus on customer-centric offerings and its ability to meet growing housing demand in key markets. Notably, customer collections also surged by 18%, amounting to ₹1,033 crore for the September quarter, compared to ₹879 crore in the previous year. For the first half of FY25, collections increased by 27% to ₹1,998 crore, up from ₹1,575 crore, indicating robust customer confidence and effective execution strategies.

According to Ashish Puravankara, the Managing Director of Puravankara Ltd, the strong performance in Q2 FY25 was primarily driven by sustained sales, which reflect the robust housing demand across their key markets. The average price realization also saw a positive trend, increasing by 9% to ₹8,697/sqft from ₹7,947/sqft in the same period last year. This increase in price realization is indicative of the company’s ability to leverage market conditions effectively.

Puravankara's diverse portfolio and strategic expansion plans are key factors in driving its continued growth. The company has actively replenished its land bank, acquiring over 5.75 million square feet of saleable area across Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Goa in the first half of FY25. These acquisitions come with a total potential gross development value (GDV) exceeding ₹10,000 crore, positioning the company for substantial future revenue generation.

As the festive season approaches, Puravankara is preparing to launch over 12 million sqft of new projects in the second half of FY25, with a potential GDV exceeding ₹13,000 crore. This proactive approach to land acquisition and development positions the company well to capture market opportunities during a period traditionally marked by increased buyer activity.

Among its recent developments, Puravankara has made strategic inroads into the luxury South Mumbai market by acquiring redevelopment rights for the Miami Apartments at Breach Candy, a project with a potential GDV of ₹700 crore. Additionally, the company expanded its footprint in Mumbai by adding a cluster of four societies in Lokhandwala, Andheri West, boasting a combined GDV of ₹2,350 crore.

In Bengaluru, the company signed a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) for a prime 1.95-acre land parcel in the Electronics City micro-market, adjacent to the Purva Westend project. This land will offer a saleable area of 2.6 lakh square feet with a potential GDV of ₹250 crore.

The company's proactive and strategic approach is clearly reflected in its stock performance. Puravankara shares gained 2% in morning trade on October 10, 2024, trading at ₹400.9 per share. This upward movement in stock price demonstrates investor confidence in the company's future prospects as it navigates through a competitive landscape.
