They are planning to have Rs 14,000 crore of sales by FY24 (2023-24 financial year) and Rs 20,000 crore by FY26 (2025-26), which is about three times their number before Covid-19.

It is going to be more focused on middle income and affordable housing. The geographical focus will be around MMR and Pune, where they will use funds in a capital-light manner.

They will not purchase large parcels of land. He emphasised that the firm's debt-equity ratio is among the lowest. They are increasing in a capital-light model where because of the firm's brand and execution strength, landowners are partnering with them.
