₹744 cr Record annual bookings for FY26, representing a 120% jump.

What's new

  • Solano Gardens launch generated ₹384 cr, selling 79% of units in 10 days.
  • Management raised Solano Gardens margin guidance to 35-40%, up from 25-30%.
  • Imperia Phase 2 revenue recognition lowered to ₹130-150 cr due to possession delays.

Why this matters

The margin hike at Solano Gardens shows strong pricing power in a core market. The revenue deferral at Imperia Phase 2 proves that project timelines remain vulnerable to customer-driven delays despite a record year.

What we're watching

  • Execution pace on the new ₹2,000 cr Lucknow land pipeline.
  • Whether the margin guidance holds as construction costs fluctuate.
  • Conversion of the remaining 21% of Solano Gardens inventory.

The full read

Eldeco Housing closed FY26 with ₹744 crore in bookings, a 120% surge over the prior year. The performance hinges on the Solano Gardens launch, which moved 79% of its units in 10 days and brought in ₹384 crore. Management raised margin guidance for the project to 35-40%, up from the 25-30% range flagged six months ago.

It is a strong result.

However, the company lowered its near-term revenue recognition for Imperia Phase 2 to ₹130-150 crore as customers delayed taking possession, and Eldeco added three Lucknow land parcels with a gross development value of ₹2,000 crore, expanding the total pipeline to ₹4,000 crore which the company intends to monetize over the next five to seven years.
