Sahil Vachani, Vice Chairman & MD of Max Estates, said, "The Indian residential real estate market is set for strong and sustained growth in the coming years, fueled by improved affordability, an increasing proportion of the upper mid-income and high-income population, and a notable shift in consumer preferences towards premium, high-quality living spaces.
The Delhi NCR region is experiencing significant infrastructure upgrades, including airport advancements, road networks, and mass rapid transport systems. These developments are accelerating urbanisation and enhancing the region's appeal as a highly desirable destination for residential living and professional opportunities.
In the first nine months of FY25, we exceeded our revised full-year guidance, achieving a pre-sales booking value of Rs 5,200 crore. We remain deeply focused on the NCR region to continue to enable "real well-being in the real estate space truly. Our strong business development strategy has enabled us to build a well-diversified portfolio of 17 million sqft within Delhi NCR across residential, commercial and mixed-use development opportunities, positioning us for sustained growth in the years ahead.
As a part of our growth trajectory, we continue to seek new growth opportunities and scale up by adding at least 3 million sq. ft. every year to our current portfolio, which will enable us to diversify our footprint in Delhi NCR across commercial and residential asset classes through both JDA's and outright acquisitions."
