Q: Can you share the equity investment for the projects with a BD of Rs. 3,200 crores, and what is the guidance for BD in the coming year? A: We generally do not provide a detailed breakup of capital deployed across each project. However, for FY27, we expect to lock in BD of about Rs. 4,000-5,000 crores. Last year, our investing activities exceeded Rs. 600 crores, which went towards the BD done. - Unidentified_4
Q: Why is there a significant difference in OCF generation between Mumbai and Karnataka projects? A: The difference is primarily due to the nature of the projects. In Bangalore, many recent acquisitions were outright, while in Mumbai, the projects are joint developments or redevelopments, leading to lower OCF numbers. - Unidentified_4
Q: What is the strategy for the Forest Trail Bangalore project, which still has 50% unsold inventory? A: We have been focusing on creating a customer experience with a show villa and landscaping to justify the premium proposition. We expect sales to improve significantly once this is ready in the next 3-4 months. - Unidentified_4
Q: How are you managing the impact of increased commodity costs on project realizations? A: We have noticed a 4% increase in costs across our portfolio. However, we have budgeted for contingencies and inflation, so we are not currently passing these costs onto customers. We will continue to monitor the situation closely. - Unidentified_4
Q: What is the expected timeline for realizing the Rs. 5,000 crore cash flow from ongoing and future projects? A: We expect to monetize most of this within the next 4 to 5 years. - Unidentified_4
