One of the country’s largest listed developers reported record annual pre-sales exceeding INR 30,000 crore during FY26, reflecting 76% year-on-year growth supported by launches across Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad and NCR markets. Collections increased more than 50% year-on-year, while annual sales volumes crossed 22 million sq ft.
The company also launched over 51 million sq ft during the financial year with launch gross development value nearing INR 27,000 crore and maintained a robust future pipeline of nearly INR 68,000 crore across residential projects in multiple cities.
Another major developer stated that its annuity business across warehousing and office assets is expected to support nearly ten-fold growth in recurring income over the next six years. The company highlighted continued expansion of integrated residential, commercial and industrial developments while maintaining one of the lowest debt costs within the sector.
Commercial and annuity portfolios continued to show strong leasing momentum across developers during FY26. Office occupancy levels remained above 90% in several portfolios, while retail occupancy levels approached full utilisation, supported by sustained demand from global capability centres (GCCs), corporates and organised retailers. Hospitality assets also recorded improved operational performance and revenue growth during the year.
Financial performance across the sector reflected higher revenue recognition and project execution activity. One developer reported consolidated revenue growth of 73% year-on-year to INR 12,685 crore and consolidated profit after tax of INR 1,196 crore during FY26. Another company reported reduction in net debt by nearly INR 800 crore during the quarter on the back of stronger customer collections and disciplined leverage management.
Developers also continued to strengthen long-term project pipelines through land acquisitions, mixed-use developments and expansion into newer markets beyond traditional core geographies. Several companies highlighted growing demand across IT-led housing markets, sustained office leasing activity and increasing contribution from annuity-based businesses as key drivers supporting medium-term growth visibility.
