Financial Performance
Sri Lotus Developers delivered strong top-line and bottom-line growth in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027. Revenue from operations surged 116% year-on-year to ₹132 crore. Profit After Tax followed a similar trajectory, increasing 77% to reach ₹46 crore.
The company maintained healthy operational efficiency with an EBITDA margin of 36.4%. Despite a sequential dip in revenue compared to the preceding quarter, the year-on-year performance reflects significant momentum in project execution and collections, which grew 115% to ₹150 crore. The management highlighted that growth was primarily fueled by sustained demand for luxury housing and the success of recently launched coastal projects.
Management Outlook and Future Guidance
The management has provided ambitious guidance for the full fiscal year 2027, targeting annual pre-sales between ₹1,800 and ₹2,000 crore. They expect both Revenue and Profit After Tax to grow by approximately 55-60% year-on-year. For the remaining quarters of FY27, the company plans to launch four new projects—Lotus Aurelia, Lotus Sky Plaza, Lotus Portofino, and Lotus Odyssey—with a combined estimated Gross Development Value of ₹3,500-4,000 crore.
Long-term projections estimate an expected free cashflow of ₹8,400 crore from its current project portfolio, including completed, ongoing, and upcoming developments, while maintaining a consistent PAT margin of 25-30%.
Business Strategy and Project Portfolio
Sri Lotus Developers continues to leverage an asset-light model, with nearly 100% of new projects undertaken through redevelopment or joint development agreements. This strategy provides financial flexibility to undertake high-value projects in premium Mumbai micro-markets such as Juhu, Bandra, and Nepean Sea Road. A major highlight is the expansion into the GIFT City area with a flagship mixed-use project on the banks of the Sabarmati river.
This project, which has a Joint Development Agreement with Mr. Abhishek Bachchan, features Grade-A commercial spaces and high-end residential units with an estimated GDV of ₹2,000-2,200 crore, slated for commencement in Q1 FY28.
