Godrej Properties delivered a stellar Q1 FY25, with booking value surging 283% YoY to INR 8,637 crore and PAT hitting a record INR 520 crore (up 316% YoY), aided by a commercial property revaluation. The standout launches—Godrej Woodscape (Bengaluru, INR 3,156 crore) and Godrej Jardinia (Noida, INR 2,370 crore)—drove the outperformance. Management maintained its FY25 booking guidance of INR 27,000 crore and collections guidance of INR 15,000 crore, expressing confidence in beating both. Business development remains robust with two new projects added in Q1 (INR 3,000 crore estimated booking value) and a strong pipeline for Q2. Key risks include potential approval delays in Mumbai/Pune due to elections and the ongoing delay in the Ashok Vihar launch (now expected by Q4 FY25). The company's focus on end-user-driven product design and low cost of sales provides a competitive edge.
