Reason for report: Initiating coverage DLF, Indias largest real-estate developer, has a credible track record of over six decades in developing marquee commercial, residential & retail projects. The company has a land bank of 751mn sqft (79% in metros & super metros) spread across 32 Indian cities. It stands out as a premier play on Indian real estate, with a business model that has the right mix of brand, growth, execution, management and new initiatives. We estimate DLFs NPV at Rs1,198bn or Rs703/share; initiate coverage with BUY recommendation. Play on India real estate Premium landbank. DLF has the largest landbank of 751mn sqft spread over 32 major Indian cities. It has a diversified portfolio of residential (477mn sqft), office (164mn sqft), retail (92mn sqft), hospitality (18mn sqft), townships and SEZ projects. It has superior regional & segmental diversification mitigating concentration risks and providing cashflow stability (>50% of sales to come from outside NCR over the next two years). Given its well located, low-cost landbank (~Rs315/sqft), we expect DLF to continue posting high margins. Volume growth & burgeoning lease portfolio. DLF plans aggressive ramp-up in mid-income housing (58% landbank; ~17% of our NAV), given the high volume growth potential. However, volume growth would happen via aggressive pricing, impacting margins. DLFs leased portfolio is set for sharp growth over the next 5 years; we expect it to reach ~70mn sqft, accruing steady annual rentals of ~Rs71bn. DLFs bulging lease portfolio contributes ~40% of our NAV. JVs Growth drivers. DLF has struck JVs with strategic partners across segments to facilitate growth & better execution, including Laing ORourke, WSP, Feedback Ventures, Hilton & Aman Resorts (acquisition). Also, DLF has tie-ups with Prudential Inc, Nakheel Group, Limitless Group, Fortis, Gayatri Projects & Fraport AG. Property-market concerns. We have viewed DLF against a frail, near-term property market backdrop and other key concerns (affordability, oversupply & rising input cost) (details in Key risks section below). We have assumed 20% price correction in sales & rental value; however, we do not foresee any further serious price correction. We believe affordability to improve with price correction as fundamental drivers still remain intact. Remain upbeat on long-term prospects of Indian realty. Attractive valuations. DLF trades at significant discount to our NAV estimates of Rs1,198bn or Rs703/share, trading close to our worst-case valuations. We expect earnings CAGR of 10% over FY08-11. Based on our FY09E, FY10E & FY11E EPS estimates of Rs51, Rs56 & Rs62, DLF trades at P/E of 9.4x, 8.5x & 7.8x respectively. DLF is a de facto play on India real estate. Initiate coverage with BUY.

Premium landbank
DLFs landbank is primarily located in the NCR, Kolkata, Chennai and Bangalore, which are high-margin locations where significant commercial, retail and residential demand is expected. DLF has also acquired land in up-market locations in New Delhi and Mumbai; where the company plans to develop super-luxury apartments. In Mumbai, DLF had also acquired 17.5 acres of land at NTC Mills to develop office cum retail space. DLF has total developable area of 751mn sqft in various regions across India. Of this, 79% is in super metros and metros. The company has a diversified portfolio of residential (477mn sqft), office (164mn sqft), retail (92mn sqft), hospitality (18mn sqft), townships and SEZ projects. DLFs average land cost stands at Rs315/sqft, owing to historical acquisition costs; this provides key long-term competitive advantage to the company. Table 2: Segmental classification

Riding the Indian real-estate growth wave
Key growth drivers for real estate are: i) sustainable economic growth, ii) favourable demographics, iii) growth in IT/ITES, manufacturing & organised retail, iv) increasing demand in hotels and logistics sectors, and v) rising direct & indirect investments in real estate. These drivers continue to remain intact, though we have seen deceleration in growth rate of key parameters over the past few months. We believe there exists tremendous opportunity for developers to capture the burgeoning real estate market. However, developers need to re-invent themselves to meet changing customer needs and offer differentiated quality products at the right price point. We estimate the average annual demand for office & retail space at 70mn sqft & 40mn sqft respectively for the next four years. For residential units, it is difficult to estimate demand of the target segment addressed by real estate developers we estimate demand of 450-550mn sqft, including 100-130mn sqft for the high-end residential segment (properties with ticket-size of over Rs2.5mn). We estimate current size (based on money invested) of Indian real estate market at US$57bn or 6.2% of Indias GDP. In terms of value, the real estate market would likely post 12.8% CAGR over the next four years to US$105bn or 7.1% GDP by FY12E. In the next four years, average annual investment required in real estate is ~US$85bn, of which the residential segment constitutes 88% at US$74bn. We estimate annual investments of US$5.7bn for office space and US$4.8bn for retail. The size of investments is not based on sales but on monetary requirement for land & construction costs to meet intrinsic real estate demand. Sales mark-up on costs could vary with market conditions; also, a major part of residential real estate activity is not captured in sales. Going forward, hotels, logistics and warehousing would create significant real estate demand. As per industry estimates, 100,000-125,000 hotel rooms would be added in the next five years, with setting up of ~100 economy hotels in India.

Office segment
We have valued DLFs office segment at Rs529bn (44% of overall value), based on a development pipeline of 164mn sqft to be completed over the next 10 years. We have assumed 4% YoY increase in rentals and 6% YoY increase in selling price and construction costs. We expect the rented properties to contribute 57% to the overall office NAV and the remaining contributed by outright sale. We have assumed a 50:50 mix of sales and rental development.

ICICI Securities
Residential segment
We value the Residential segment at Rs318bn (27% of overall NAV) based on development pipeline of 477mn sqft to be executed in the next 12 years. Further, we value the Mid-income Housing segment at Rs200bn based on 432mn sqft development; the segment contributes ~63% to the Residential segment. We have assumed 6% YoY increase in selling price & construction cost. The remaining valuation is from the Luxury and Super Luxury segments. Chart 7: Residential segment Valuations breakup
Super-luxury 9%
Retail segment
DLFs retail segment has been valued at Rs271bn based on a development pipeline of ~92mn sqft over the next 10 years. We have assumed 4% YoY increase in rentals and 6% increase in construction cost. We have also assumed lease-to-sales ratio of 50%. Lease income valuation accounts to 54% of the total retail NAV, with the remaining being contributed by outright sales.

Assumptions
Price assumptions
Our fair value estimate of DLF, based on NAV, stands at Rs1,198bn or Rs703/share. The valuations are based on price assumptions for sales and construction across segments (office, retail & residential; Table 8). Given the softness in the property market, we have assumed 20% drop in selling prices and 20% drop in rentals to calculate NAV. DLF has aggressive growth plans in the mid-income category; to execute such plans, DLF may undercut market prices to push sales. We have assumed a cap rate of 10% each for office and retail properties. We have assumed inflationary growth of 6% YoY in selling price & construction cost and 4% YoY growth in lease rentals.

Other assumptions
Capitalisation rate We have assumed 10% cap rate to value lease properties. Current G-Sec yields in India are above 8%; cap rate for real estate assets should ideally be at premium to GSec rate to account for risk premium. However, at times, cap rate can move to negative spread as well, if investors price-in future capital appreciation in the Indian property market due to favourable demographics and robust GDP growth. In developed real estate markets such as USA, Singapore and Hong Kong, cap rates are within the 5-7% range, in line with respective regional G-Sec rates. Over the past two years, there has been a spread compression due to reduction in long-term risk premium attached to the property market, high liquidity and assumption of capital appreciation in real estate assets. We have assumed 14.4% as discount rate, on the basis of 14.7% cost of equity and 12% cost of debt. Execution assumptions DLF has aggressive ramp-up plans going forward, which would result in annual projects under development to ~169mn sqft and annual delivery to the tune of ~60mn sqft. We believe that these plans will be difficult to execute and, hence, we have assumed delay of six months to a year in execution till FY11E, post which we have assumed a 1-2 year delay. Further, the companys development plans seem aggressive; therefore, we have discounted the launch plans by 5% (compounded annually) from FY11, i.e. implying ~50% delay in 10 years. Terminal value Given that real estate development is an ongoing business for DLF and that the company will continue to add more projects to its portfolio, we have assigned terminal value of Rs83bn or Rs49/share to DLF, i.e. 7% for our NAV. Terminal value is based on an assumption of ~40mn sqft of annual delivery and profit realisations of ~Rs1,000/sqft. Our terminal value does not include any growth in profits. Table 9: Terminal value

Other assets We estimate fair value of other assets of DLF at Rs85bn or Rs50/share, of which the key are developed plots of 7.5mn sqft sitting in the companys books, DLFs facility management business and JV with LOR.

Option value not included DLF has signed key JVs across other verticals that could lead to significant value creation going forward. We have assigned no value to such JVs, which may lead to further upside in our estimated NAV. Table 11: Option value

Sensitivity analysis
We have analysed sensitivity of our NAV calculations to changes in prices and cap rates (Table 12). Worst case scenario 30% drop in selling prices, 30% drop in rentals and rental cap rate of 12% Probable scenario 20% drop in selling prices, 20% drop in rentals and 10% rental cap rate Best case scenario 10% drop in selling prices, 10% drop in rentals and 9% rental cap rate Table 12: Scenario analysis

We have taken the probable scenario of 20% drop in selling prices, 20% drop in rentals and 10% rental cap rate in our valuations. We estimate that 1% change in cap rate would lead to 6.6% change in NAV and 5% drop in selling prices and rentals would lead to 9.9% change in NAV.

Earnings analysis
We estimate that DLF would deliver FY09E revenue and PAT of Rs174bn and Rs87bn respectively. Over the next three years (FY08E-11E) we estimate revenue and earnings CAGR of 19% and 10% respectively. DLF is currently trading at FY09E, FY10E and FY11E P/E of 9.4x, 8.5x and 7.8x respectively, based on our EPS estimates of Rs51.1, Rs56.3 and Rs61.5 respectively. Going forward, we expect the companys EBITDA margin to shrink from 72% in FY07 and 68.5% in FY08 to 61% by FY11E. However, DLF will continue to retain healthy operating margins in the 61-64% range over the next three years. Such healthy profit margins are mainly due to the locked in low land cost (Rs315/sqft) and proportionately higher property prices. Also, as the fraction of lease income grows, the company would be able to maintain margins going forward. Margins are also positively impacted by project mix, which has a higher commercial component. Going forward, mid-housing revenues will kick in aggressively, leading to margin contraction. DLFs net profit margin will remain high, within the 44-50% range primarily due to lower tax rate on account of tax benefits for SEZs (~90% of DLF office space is demarked for SEZs) and rental income. We expect the companys RoE to decline from current levels and settle within the 2631% range. This decline is primarily due to decrease in asset turnover, despite strong profit margins, as more rental assets get added to the balance sheet. Also, returns on excess cash generated from current and upcoming projects may not get employed at the current high rate-of-return investments. However, within the core real estate development business, the company should be able to maintain more then 25% RoE over the next 10 years.

Established brand name in the local market
DLF is one the best known real-estate brands in India; the company has over 60 years of experience in real estate development. It has a well established marketing set-up of over 120 brokers. The companys properties command a premium of more than 10-20% as against similar projects by other developers. It has been credited with the development of Gurgaon; also, the DLF City Township (3,000 acres) is one of the hallmark projects in North India.
ICICI Securities
transactions have been higher than the US, Europe, Singapore and other developing Asian economies.
20
Absorption risk
At DLFs average construction run rate, absorption will be the deciding criteria. Even though the real estate market is currently showing good volumes and DLFs target segment is moving towards the larger mid-income category; we perceive that absorption risk will remain high, particularly in the residential segment as DLF expects to capture 20-30% of the overall residential market. Based on DLF's current market share of the Residential segment at ~9-11% and aggressive ramp-up plans of other developers, real estate market will find it difficult to absorb this supply. Within the Office and Retail segments too, DLF plans to deliver 15-20mn sqft annually; we believe that the property market will find it difficult to absorb such a supply. To account for absorption risk, we have assumed 20% drop in residential selling prices and 20% drop in rentals. Additionally, 1-year execution and 5% compounded annual delay in launch will help reduce supply.
Exposure to NCR
We estimate DLF to have ~40% of its total land bank in NCR; in value terms, the exposure could be ~50%. This would make DLF highly susceptible to any adverse developments in Gurgaon, Noida and Delhi. We see oversupply conditions in the Gurgaon market, which could impact the companys sales. Also, changes in land use regulations, zoning laws, taxes, natural calamity and any social or political development could depress real estate sentiment in NCR.
21
ICICI Securities
However, a large component of sales in NCR is commercial & retail; this reduces downside risk as commercial properties could be sold to DAL and most retail projects are on long-term lease.
Cashflow concerns
DLF has significantly higher proportion of sundry creditors-to-sales on its balance sheet. For FY08, sundry debtors stood at 56% of sales at ~Rs79bn. This is due to outstanding to DAL (Rs19.4bn) and outstanding to Merrill Lynch (Rs5.4bn) as well as certain creditors outstanding on the companys power subsidiary. However, DLF also has creditors outstanding on percentage completion (PCOM) basis on its ongoing commercial, retail and residential projects. This is unlike other property developers and illustrates aggressive revenue booking by the company. We estimate sundry debtors to remain high going forward, within the 40-50% of sales; any spike in sundry creditors will be a key investment risk. Rising inflation cost will also increase input cost, particularly construction cost. In the current soft property market, DLF will find it difficult to pass on such costs to the end customer, further straining cashflow. Further, DLF is dependent on DAL for cashflows; in case of delay in cashflow from DAL, the company may not be able to mobilise funds for its projects, thus hindering growth. Sale to DAL may pose conflict of interest, given that both the companies belong to the same management. However, DLF has indicated that it will sell its commercial assets in open auction with DAL as one of the participants. We are concerned that DLF may not be able to realise market value of its properties. However, a strong balance sheet (post IPO) has helped mitigate this risk. Most projects are already under construction and expected to generate attractive cashflows over the coming years. Also, the D/E remains low, allowing DLF to take further debt, if required. Additionally, incremental cash outflow for land acquisition is low.
Other risks
Cyclicality. Real estate is a commodity business; oversupply and cyclicality are
inevitable, only the timing could vary. Although current trends do not validate a severe downturn in real estate market, however the slowdown in transactions (volumes) coupled with decline in selling prices, could dent DLFs earnings.
Macro factors. Key factors such as interest rate hike, reducing appetite of banks for
realty loans, deceleration in GDP growth rate, slower growth in disposable income and slowdown in services present a serious threat to the Realty sector.
22
ICICI Securities
Regulatory & litigation risks. Changes in policies and regulation affecting realty sector will impact DLF. Realty sector is burdened with litigations; DLF has over 300 cases pending against itself as on November 30, 06. Litigations can occur in the future and impact profitability and development timelines.
Affordability
Sharp increase in real estate prices coupled with high interest rates has constrained affordability in the residential segment. Broader economic deceleration led by various macro factors such as higher interest rates, rising input costs, exchange rate volatility and particularly deceleration of IT/ITES industry growth has put on hold the aggressive growth plans of corporate India, leading to slowdown in commercial office space. In the residential market, YoY growth in housing loan disbursement data (net growth in disbursement by banks; does not include housing finance companies-HFCs that have been gaining market share) has dropped to almost one-third from 33.4% in November 06 to 12% in February 08, indicating low appetite amongst retail buyers to purchase houses in the current environment.

Over CY02-07, low interest rate coupled with affordable property prices led to 43% CAGR in disbursement. Average ticket size grew 2.5x for new urban houses. However, now, banks have become cautious about risk to home loans, as property prices as well as interest rates have increased significantly in the past year. Banks have also reduced the average LTV (loan-to-value) for new disbursements, resulting in further slowdown in demand for the current year.

Consistently deteriorating affordability has affected demand in all cities equally, despite healthy salary growth. We expect affordability to improve as salaries in corporate India grow 12-15% YoY and due to base correction in property prices. The process would, however, be slow and lead to near-term pressure on prices. Similarly, on the office & retail space front, we expect affordability to improve as corporate India continues on the upward trajectory, though at a slower pace. On the Office front, affordability is dependent on corporate growth, near-term demandsupply mismatch and rentals as a component of business expenses. Though IT/ITES (accounts for 75% of office demand) has seen slowdown, the sector is still expected to grow 20-25% over the next five years, leading to steady demand for commercial space. Other key sectors such as financials, bio-tech etc generating office demand are also showing strong growth, albeit at a slower pace. However, further slowdown in the IT/ITES industry, driven by global factors, remains a key risk to our view.
Residential
As per the National Housing Bank (NHB), there was a housing shortage of 19.4mn units (12.7mn units in rural areas and 6.7mn units in urban areas) in FY03. According to the X FYP (five year plan), estimated housing shortage was 22.7mn units by endCY07. Industry estimates suggest cumulative demand-supply gap at 4.1bn sqft.
24
ICICI Securities
For the overall market, we estimate demand for residential units in urban India at ~2bn sqft/annum. Although it is difficult to estimate residential demand within the target segment of real estate developers, we estimate it to be 450-550mn sqft based on new housing demand created by rising middle & upper income households. Demand for the high-end residential segment (properties with ticket size of over Rs2.5mn) is 100130mn sqft. As per a recent AC Neilson report, supply from the high-end residential segment is ~120mn sqft, which implies the demand & supply situation to be comfortably matched; we do not expect the equilibrium to shift significantly.
Office segment
In the recent past, demand for office space was far exceeding supply in most locations across India, given the large number of pre-leases and low vacancy rates. However, supply is now matching and inching above demand. We estimate that the current supply pipeline would not lead to an oversupply in the near term; however, rentals may not move further, signalling an end to capital appreciation on office properties. The development of IT/ITES SEZs remains a key risk to our estimates (could create additional 33mn sqft supply annually). We estimate office space demand in India at 65mn sqft per annum, 75% of which would be from the IT/ITES sector. We believe that demand from the sector would be driven by addition of ~565,000 employees per annum over the next five years. We estimate office space supply in India at 50-55mn sqft in CY07. The cumulative development pipeline for the key 7 cities is ~105mn sqft. Table 13: Cumulative office supply across 7 key cities

Retail segment
We estimate retail sector demand at 37mn sqft per annum; currently, there is high demand for quality retail space across India. We estimate supply to exceed demand in the next two years as many large projects would come onstream across most metros. We remain wary of the possible oversupply post CY09 that is likely to hit retail before it does the office and residential segments. The impact of oversupply would be more severe in Retail, given the high land & construction costs (input costs). The Indian retail market (~US$320bn in 06) is largely fragmented; organised retail accounts for just ~6% of the total market. In the Retail segment, high rentals as a percentage of sales are a cause for concern as they dilute viability for retailers.

Outlook
Real estate market is facing tough operating conditions. We expect volumes to pick up, though margins may remain under pressure due to higher input costs & lower pass through to end customers. Channel checks suggest that prices have fallen 15-25% across various cities. In lieu of a price cut, many developers are offering freebies (free car parking, registration, lower interest rates on mortgages, vacation packages etc) on their ongoing projects. Affordability will improve with price correction, as fundamental drivers of the property market still remain intact. We do not see further sharp corrections from these levels, except some local markets where prices may correct due to oversupply. Given the significant capital appreciation in the past two years and higher operating margins enjoyed by developers (50-80%), drop in prices can be absorbed by the developers. Given the current supply scenario and recent hikes in interest rate, home buyers have adopted a wait-and-watch stance, implying that differentiated product offerings and brand name would play a critical role in closing a sale. Further, this would increase the possibility of a sporadic drop in prices in certain pockets. However, once the interest rates stabilise, improving demographics and the latent housing demand would again push up residential demand. We believe that as the property market matures in various Indian cities (i.e. no supply-side constraints for quality homes), developers with better business competencies/skills will differentiate themselves and move forward.

Shareholders settlement
DLF IPO was derailed in its first attempt as minority shareholders approached the Company Law Board and SEBI, alleging that DLFs management intentionally denied some investors to participate in the Rs350mn rights issue in September 05, which increased promoters stake to 99.5%. Later, an agreement was reached between the management and minority shareholders, wherein the latter were issued 81,983 shares or 2% of unsecured redeemable debentures of Rs100 each, which would be converted into equity shares in the ratio of 10 equity shares of Rs10 each. It would be further split into five shares of Rs2 each. Further, a bonus share issue of 7 equity shares of Rs2 each for every share of Rs2 held after the conversion of the debentures into equity shares and subsequent splitting of shares were also awarded to shareholders.

Of the net proceeds of the issue, the company planned to utilise Rs35bn for acquisition of land and development rights, Rs34.934bn for development and construction costs for existing projects and the remaining amount for prepayment of loans of the company.

Leader in Commercial segment
DLF boasts of a strong position in the commercial segment, with established landmark developments in Gurgaon, Kolkata etc. The commercial segment has higher margins and less competition as it is more capital intensive; large developments usually work on a lease model and require long-term relationships with corporates. Also, posttransaction, facilities management services need to be provided. DLF leased 2.27mn sqft and sold 4.48mn sqft in the commercial segment in H1FY08. We believe that DLFs leadership position in the segment will make it the largest beneficiary of potential compression in cap rates. Further, DLF avails tax breaks on its commercial development as most of it falls within SEZ development, which enhances profitability. Currently, DLF has ~8mn sqft under lease. DLF is the pioneer of Grade A office leasing market in India. Its Offices business develops commercial space across various formats such as large IT/ITES facilities, multi-tenant corporate office buildings, built-to-suit properties and integrated commercial complexes. Besides strong presence in NCR, DLF's projects are spread across Mumbai, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai and Bangalore. This business unit of the company presently enjoys presence in 16 Indian cities. In the coming quarters, DLF has planned launches of office spaces in Ludhiana, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Lucknow. DLF is known for its innovation, quality, commitment and timely delivery. It has a timetested clientele comprising some of India's biggest corporate names. It has a strong network of contractors and suppliers as well as enduring relationships with international property consultants such as Jones Lang LaSalle, Cushman & Wakefield, CB Richard Ellis and Colliers Jardine. DLF is developing a number of commercial projects across India with total ~40mn sqft of let-able commercial space, including 11 IT-SEZ projects (5 notified, of which 3 are occupied and operational and 6 have final approvals). DLF has achieved steady state to deliver 12mn sqft of office space on an annual basis. Work is ongoing on 40mn sqft of saleable area and the company expects to deliver 12mn sqft in FY09.
34
ICICI Securities
DLF expects to retain its leadership position in the commercial segment by targeting development of IT and non-IT commercial space over the next 10 years. It is now a dominant pan-Indian player, servicing prime customers across the country. Threats for the Offices business comprise slowdown in the IT/ITES and corporate sectors. While outlook on these sectors is robust for the next five years, the business unit is addressing the concern through accelerated delivery and diversification to newer tier II centres of demand. DLF is currently constructing a number of commercial projects across the country. These projects are expected to result in ~40 mn sqft of lease-able commercial space. Office space accounts for 44% of the companys NAV. While we have assumed a capitalisation rate of 10% for these projects, the IT-SEZ segment could see lower rates as the buyer will enjoy tax benefits.

DLF Assets (DAL)
DLF Assets (DAL) is an asset holding company owned by the promoters of DLF. DAL is the primary buyer of property constructed by DLF. As per DLF, sales to DAL are at arms length and at market prices, duly approved by an audit committee. The company is looking at the possibility of sales of such projects via competitive bidding process. The DLF Groups subsidiary, DLF Assets, has plans to get converted into a REIT, which would utilize money from investors to purchase and manage properties. Majority of the income generated by REITs is shared among investors. India has not yet introduced legislation to support REITs. DAL needs to urgently get a proposed listing underway as a REIT in Singapore to pay DLF. DE Shaw and New opportunities I PCC (fund sponsored by the investment banking firm, Lehman Brothers), have invested US$400mn and US$200mn respectively. In a recent transaction, DAL received US$450mn from a London-based investment firm, Symphony Capital. Notably, as per earlier plans, DLF had a Put option at a guaranteed minimum cap rate. However, now, DLF will not enjoy any such option. Also, DAL will neither have any exclusivity nor any right of first refusal for any property developed by DLF. Chart 20: DAL to be a major buyer of DLF properties
Sell assets
DLF Limited
Till date, DLF Assets has only bought property assets from the DLF Group. The company would soon start buying large block of properties in India from other parties. In FY08, DLF sold Rs53.5bn worth of assets to DAL, contributing 40% to DLFs cumulative PBT. Impact on PAT is even higher, given that the transferred projects are SEZs, implying no tax. Last year, DLF sold Rs8.8bn worth of assets to DAL, contributing 61% to its FY07 PBT. DAL has Rs19bn outstanding to DLF as on date. We expect further sales to continue to DAL in the coming years that would help DLF tide over short-term cashflow requirements.

Retail
DLF's retail business consists of high-street shopping, malls, super-luxury malls and destination malls, combining the best in retail and entertainment. The company reported comprehensive mall development with an extension into multiplex cinemas (DT Cinemas), resulting in a distinctive package comprising a superior shopping experience with quality ambience, parking, safety, security and entertainment. Besides NCR, projects are located in cities such as Mumbai, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai and Bangalore. Currently, the business unit has presence in 26 cities. DLF has plans for delivering 1mn sqft of luxury malls, 4mn sqft of shopping malls and 3mn sqft of neighbourhood malls annually. The company has 12mn sqft of mall space under construction. In shopping malls, DLF's competitive advantage comes from world-class planning and design, specialised mall management, right product and amenity mix, leisure destinations in strategic locations and premium anchor clients. To keep up with economic growth and the fact that India is becoming a magnet for global retailers, DLF plans to roll out ~95mn sqft of malls in 5 formats through the following initiatives: Focusing on rapid growth of prime downtown shopping districts, neighbourhood centres and shopping centres Building strong brand equity for its super-luxury malls Launching a few pilot destination malls, investing ahead of the curve Focusing on destination malls, with scale and timing depending on market demand Sustaining launch of other formats, including different mall formats and shopping centres
Concerns in the Mall business comprise lack of clarity in the policy as regards organised retail at the central and state levels, lack of uniformity in taxation for indirect and property taxes and lack of transportation infrastructure to the malls. The Government policy is to simplify and rationalise taxes for retailers and property owners. We expect that, with implementation of a national VAT system accompanied by roll out of Central Governments recommendations on indirect taxes for the real estate sector, policy issues will be resolved. To address infrastructure needs around malls, DLF is working closely with local authorities on traffic planning and partnering in additional infrastructure creation.

Hotels
DLF will invest sizeable capital in the Hotel and SEZ segments going forward, which will lead to further NAV expansion. We will get more clarity on this segment by the next few quarters. In our NAV, we have not assigned any value to SEZs and minimal value to the Hotel segment. With core businesses reaching stable operating performance, the company is aggressively focusing on ramping up new businesses such as hotels, infrastructure, SEZs etc. DLF plans to have 20,000-25,000 hotel rooms in luxury and business segments across India, which would make its hotel foray one of the largest in the country. DLF has ~51 hotel sites acquired for development across India. For its JV with Hilton, targeted towards the business segment, the company has finalised 18 hotel sites with 6,800 rooms and construction is expected to commence shortly. DLFs first hotel, Hilton Garden Inn is set to open in Sanket, New Delhi by Q3FY08. DLF has also signed a letter of intent with Four Seasons for a 230-room first superluxury hotel in Gurgaon. Further, for 36 hotel sites with 12,000 rooms, DLF is in the process of evaluating the category and positioning to ascertain right branding and product mix. DLF Hotels was formed to enhance focus and value to DLF's core real estate business. DLF Hotels aims to develop, acquire, finance and actively manage a rapidly growing hospitality portfolio, focusing on premium segment hotels, resorts, serviced apartments, convention centres and family recreational clubs. DLF Hotels is also developing a distinctive portfolio of luxury hotels, built and managed by some of the world's leading luxury branded hotels. Through a significant JV with Hilton Hotels Corporation, DLF Hotels is developing one of the leading chains of business hotels and serviced apartments through India. DLF Hotels is aggressively building its landbank and has already acquired sites in several cities, including Delhi, NCR, Cochin, Hyderabad, Mysore, Bhubaneswar, Chennai, Bangalore, Gangtok and Kolkata, giving the company pan-India presence. Further, DLF Hotels will develop, own, brand and manage a chain of 40-50 recreational clubs across India. Five club sites are already under various stages of development in DLF City. Also, nine sites are earmarked In Bangalore, Chennai, Chandigarh, Indore and Lucknow for developing recreational clubs.

ICICI Securities
With ~5,000 luxury hotel and 20,000 business hotel rooms under current development in major cities and tourist destinations in India, DLF Hotels is on track to create a portfolio of 25,000 rooms in the next 5-7 years. Some specific measures undertaken include tying up with international players, partnering with state governments to develop tourist destinations, executing projects under the Hilton JV and developing city clubs within DLF residential townships. In a growing and underserved economy such as India, lack of tourism and travel infrastructure presents the biggest threat. We believe that Government's thrust on airports, roads and other supporting facilities will contain the situation and improve the country's ability to support large numbers of tourists and business travellers.

SEZs
DLF will invest sizeable capital in SEZ going forward, which will lead to further NAV expansion. In our NAV, we have not assigned any value to SEZs and await further clarity in the coming quarters. With core businesses reaching stable operating performance, the company aggressively focuses on ramping up new businesses such as hotels, infrastructure, SEZs etc. DLF has signed a 50:50 JV with Nakheel Llc, a leading real estate developer in the UAE, to develop large real estate projects in India. The management has already initiated land acquisition for the initial two projects (20,000 acres each in Gurgaon and Goa). DLF has received notification for its five IT SEZs (Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai etc.) and is awaiting notification for another six SEZs. Further, it is developing four multi-product SEZs, one each in Amritsar, Ludhiana, Gurgaon, and Ambala, which are at various stages of approval. The smaller IT/ITES SEZs are included in office segment. DLF is developing commercial projects across India, including 11 IT-SEZ projects (5 notified, of which 3 are occupied and operational and 6 have final approvals). DLF has achieved a steady state to deliver 12mn sqft of office space on an annual basis. Work is ongoing on 40mn sqft of saleable area and the company expects to deliver 12mn sqft in FY09.

Township
DLF's expertise in township and city planning, core real estate businesses and initiatives in infrastructure development position the company attractively to develop large integrated industrial enclaves such as SEZs. DLF is currently developing large township projects in various cities, which are: Bidadi Township. DLF has plans to develop Bidadi integrated township, spread over 9,168 acres on the outskirts of Bangalore, with potential value creation of ~ Rs500bn. The work is estimated to start by mid-CY08 Shivaji Marg. Acquisition of Swatantra Bharat Mill along with pre-owned lands will have a development potential of ~10 mn sqft New Gurgaon. 4,000 acres township falling in the new master plan for Gurgaon, with all segments of residential, commercial and retail Dankuni, Kolkata. 5,000 acres of township on western outskirts of Kolkata South Maharashtra. Acquisition of land started for building a high-end resort city for holiday and luxurious lifestyle
Additionally, DLF's relationships with partners such as Laing O'Rourke plc, a leading UK-based construction company, and Fraport, a European airport developer and operator, has enabled it to foray into infrastructure opportunities such as airports, roads, bridges, tunnels, pipelines, harbours and power projects.
Bidadi project
DLF, in a JV with Limitless Holdings (Nakheel developers), a Middle East-based developer, has received the letter of intent to build an integrated township spread over 9,178 acres at Bidadi, which is 30km from Bangalore. Bidadi is on the BangaloreMysore expressway and the upcoming intercity infrastructure corridor. The per-acre development charges of this self-contained township are likely to be over Rs5.7mn; the township is scheduled to be completed within five years The Government plans to use 2,400 acres for resettlement of the existing 200 settlements in Bidadi and the remaining 5,935 acres will be allocated for development activity. 50% of this land will be used by BMRDA (Bangalore Metropolitan Regional Development Authority) for mixed development and the rest will be developed by DLF. DLF will get an FSI of 2.5 on this project, translating into a development potential of 323mn sqft of saleable area. The Government has already acquired 2,200 acres and the rest will be acquired in the next 5-6 months.

Cumulative construction schedule
DLF has an aggressive roll-out plan for Residential and Office segments over the next 5-10 years and land bank to support most developments. We expect steep volume growth in both segments going forward. Over the next 10 years, we expect DLF to launch 485mn sqft of residential and 143mn sqft of office space. We expect the company to have sufficient execution capabilities to deliver ~50mn sqft annually by the next 4-5 years. Further, we believe that the companys lease portfolio would grow to ~136mn sqft within the next 10 years. Chart 27: Cumulative construction schedule
