DLF Q3
In a standout performance for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2024, DLF, India’s prominent real estate developer, reported a remarkable 26.64% year-over-year increase in consolidated net profit. The financial results, released post-market hours on Wednesday, showcased the company’s solid standing in the market.
Positive Financial Indicators:
DLF‘s consolidated revenue from operations for Q3 FY24 reached ₹1,521 crore, marking a 1.73% YoY increase. Sequentially, the revenue demonstrated an impressive 13% improvement. The company attributed this growth to effective operational strategies and sustained positive momentum.
Record Sales Bookings and Product Launches:
A key highlight of the quarter was DLF’s achievement of its highest quarterly sales booking, amounting to ₹9,047 crore. This feat was fueled by the successful introduction of three new products, including the luxury high-rise development DLF Privana South, the mixed-use development Central 67, and the low-rise independent units of The Valley Orchard in Panchkula. The strong demand led to the quick sell-out of projects in Gurugram within a record time frame.
Extended Positive Trend:
The nine-month sales bookings stood at an impressive ₹13,316 crore, indicating a sustained positive trend in the company’s performance over an extended period.
