New Delhi: India's 28 listed real estate companies have together sold properties worth nearly Rs 53,000 crore in the April-June quarter, with Prestige Estates achieving the highest sales bookings.
According to the data compiled from regulatory filings, the total combined sales bookings of these 28 listed realtors stood at Rs 52,842 crore in the first quarter of the current financial year.
In terms of sales bookings, Bengaluru-based Prestige Estates Projects Ltd emerged as the leading listed player in the April-June quarter of FY26, with pre-sales of Rs 12,126.4 crore.
DLF Ltd, the country's biggest realty firm in terms of market capitalisation, stood at the second position, with pre-sales of Rs 11,425 crore, driven by the Gurugram luxury home market.
Mumbai-based Godrej Properties clocked sales bookings of Rs 7,082 crore, while Lodha Developers sold properties worth Rs 4,450 crore during the June quarter.
Delhi-NCR-based Signature Global achieved sales bookings of Rs 2,640 crore in the June quarter.
Notably, these top five developers contributed 71 per cent to the total combined sales bookings achieved by the 28 listed realty firms.
The bulk of these sales bookings pertained to residential properties, whose demand has surged post-COVID pandemic. Big branded real estate developers have benefited most from this strong revival, both in volume and value terms, in India's housing market, as homebuyers have become risk-averse.
