New Delhi, April 10, 2026: Godrej Properties Limited (GPL) has reported record-breaking operational results for the 2026 financial year. For the third consecutive year, the company emerged as the nation’s largest residential developer by booking value, achieving the highest annual booking value and volume ever recorded by a listed Indian real estate player. The firm’s booking value surged to Rs 34,171 crore in FY2026, representing a 16% year-on-year growth and a remarkable three-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 41%, the company said in a press statement. 

The company’s sales success was characterized by strong geographical diversification across India’s major metropolitan hubs. The Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) and Bengaluru led the charge, contributing Rs 10,313 crore and Rs 8,802 crore respectively. Notably, the South Zone and Mumbai Zone both eclipsed the Rs 11,000 crore booking mark for the first time. This performance was bolstered by a portfolio where 11 individual projects across six different cities each generated more than Rs 1,000 crore in booking value during the year.

Financial liquidity also reached unprecedented levels, with FY2026 collections growing 17% to Rs 19,965 crore—the highest annual collection figure reported by any Indian developer to date. The final quarter of the year was particularly robust, with Q4 collections standing at Rs 7,947 crore, a 14% increase over the previous best-ever quarter. Operating cash flow for the full year rose to Rs 7,830 crore, while the company significantly ramped up its execution capabilities, increasing direct construction spend by 62% over the previous year.

In terms of future growth, FY2026 marked the company’s best-ever year for business development. Godrej Properties added 18 new projects to its portfolio, totaling approximately 33.32 million square feet of saleable area. These additions brought in an estimated future sales potential of Rs 42,100 crore, effectively doubling the company’s initial guidance of Rs 20,000 crore. Additionally, the developer exceeded its delivery targets, completing 12.1 million square feet of projects across nine cities, achieving 121% of its annual guidance.

The year also saw a significant show of confidence from the company’s leadership. Promoters utilized their full creeping acquisition limits, investing Rs 2,674 crore to acquire a 5.0% stake in GPL and an additional INR 1,896 crore for a 5.0% stake in the holding company, Godrej Industries Limited (GIL). The GPL stake was acquired at an average price 21% higher than the financial year-end stock price, signaling strong internal conviction in the firm’s long-term value.

Reflecting on the record-breaking year, Gaurav Pandey, MD & CEO, Godrej Properties, said: “GPL’s well rounded performance in FY2026 underscores the strength of demand for well-designed, high-quality homes in India’s major metropolitan markets. Our business development additions with a future booking value potential of over Rs 42,000 crore in FY2026 will ensure that we continue to have a strong launch pipeline in the years ahead and the combined operating cash flow of over Rs 15,000 crore we have generated in the past two financial years enables us to invest for growth while continuing to strengthen our balance sheet. We remain focused on building on this momentum in FY2027 through excellence in design, construction quality, timely delivery, sustainability, and innovation.”
