The full read
TARC's Q1 FY27 presales of ₹602 crore are more than just a strong quarter — they are nearly 90% of the company's entire FY26 total income. For a small-cap developer with a market cap of ₹3,652 crore and a trailing P/E of 191.5, this level of revenue visibility is rare. Collections of ₹305 crore, up 80%, back up the presales with real cash flow. The developer now has locked in a substantial chunk of its annual target in three months, sharply reducing execution risk. The open question is whether this demand is a one-quarter spike or the start of a sustained run in luxury housing. Either way, the numbers remove a lot of uncertainty about near-term earnings.
