Commenting on the performance, Mr. Abhishek Lodha, MD & CEO, Macrotech Developers Ltd. said, “Our best ever quarterly and annual performance showcases the buoyancy in demand for high quality homes in India from a top-notch brand like Lodha.
Driven by the strength of our brand, we delivered pre-sales of INR 176bn for FY25, thus meeting our guidance of delivering consistent and predictable 20% growth – now for four consecutive years since our IPO. Our focus on profitable growth has resulted in strong margins and Return on Equity (RoE), which provides us with continued strength to grow. Our strong collections are also indicative of our capability to convert sales into cashflow in a timely manner.
During Q4, we added two more projects in Pune with a GDV of INR 43bn. With this, we now have nine locations across Pune. Having achieved over INR 25bn of pre-sales in Pune in FY25, the larger base of projects sets us on path to further increase our market share and continue to grow towards becoming the No. 1 developer in Pune.
Similarly, we have entered FY26 with five locations in Bengaluru setting the stage for our growth phase.
Despite investments in Business Development in this quarter, we further reduced our net debt by INR 3.1bn to INR 39.9bn (0.2x Net Debt/ Equity) – well below our ceiling of 0.5x Net Debt/Equity. This is on the back of strong operating cash flow generation of INR 23.4bn during the quarter. On the back of strong operating and financial performance, India Ratings upgraded our credit rating to (AA/ Stable).
Our exit cost of debt continues to go down and stands at 8.7% (down ~10 bps during the quarter) – among the lowest in the industry.”
