Collections also rose to ₹28.8 billion, marking a 7% year-on-year increase, underscoring strong execution and customer confidence.

Key Highlights and Performance Metrics:

Pre-sales for Q1 FY26 stood at ₹44.5 billion, maintaining momentum after a record FY25, where the company exceeded its annual guidance with ₹176.3 billion in pre-sales.
Collections reached ₹28.8 billion in Q1, up 7% YoY, driven by timely project execution and improved conversion from bookings to cash flows.
The company continues to benefit from its diversified presence across Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), Pune, and Bengaluru, with a focus on mid-income and premium housing.
Lodha’s digital infrastructure and annuity income platforms are also gaining traction, contributing to recurring cash flows and long-term visibility.

Strategic Outlook:

The company is targeting a 20% annual growth in housing pre-sales, supported by its ‘supermarket strategy’ of hyperlocal presence in high-demand micro-markets.
With a net debt-to-equity ratio well below 0.5x and strong operating cash flows, Lodha is positioned to pursue new launches and land acquisitions without compromising balance sheet strength.
Management reiterated its FY26 guidance, citing healthy demand visibility, strong brand recall, and a robust launch pipeline across key cities.
