Synopsis

“The housing sector continues to see a healthy demand. In fact, the residential real estate, which was grappling with weak demand for years, after the pandemic is now struggling to replenish the inventory levels to keep up the supply. Many micro markets, including within Lucknow, are now out of inventory and fresh supply in terms of launchable new projects is low,” said Pankaj Bajaj, Chairman & Managing Director.

Eldeco Housing and Industries Ltd. (EHIL) Lucknow-based real estate developer, has closed FY 22 with highest ever bookings and collections at Rs 265 crore and Rs 152 crore respectively.

The company has recorded 179% growth in bookings value and 18% growth in collections.

“The housing sector continues to see a healthy demand. In fact, the residential real estate, which was grappling with weak demand for years, after the pandemic is now struggling to replenish the inventory levels to keep up the supply. Many micro markets, including within Lucknow, are now out of inventory and fresh supply in terms of launchable new projects is low,” said Pankaj Bajaj, Chairman & Managing Director.

The company had acquired 22 acre land in FY22 vs 2 acres in FY21, a growth of 1000%.

“Therefore, in-spite of a strong demand environment, we may not see major expansion in sales in the coming quarters. The challenge of rising input costs will be mitigated by this low supply scenario enabling the market to absorb the pass through of cost escalations,” Bajaj said.

“Our Q4 numbers have been stable, and we have been able maintain our profit margins. We are not seeing any major challenge in delivering all our projects within committed timelines, and some of them ahead of schedule. We are looking to add more projects in the coming quarters to maintain the supply pipeline in order to meet the demand,” Bajaj said.
