Commenting on the performance of Q1 FY2022, Mr. Pirojsha Godrej, Executive Chairman, Godrej Properties Limited, said:

“Our focus in the first quarter was on ensuring the safety and well being of our workforce. The quarter has been disappointing operationally due to the impact of the second wave. Sales in June and July were 384% higher than those in April and May and we expect to see very strong sales momentum in the remainder of the financial year given a large number of launches that are planned. We also expect significant portfolio additions this financial year, which will benefit the medium-term growth trajectory of our business. Our team was encouraged to score the highest rating amongst all real estate developers in the ESG ratings by CRISIL and looks forward to building on this in the years ahead.”
