CERTAIN CONVENTIONS, USE OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND MARKET DATA AND
CURRENCY OF PRESENTATION

Certain Conventions

All references to “India” contained in this Red Herring Prospectus are to the Republic of India. All references to
the “Government”, “Indian Government”, “GOI”, “Central Government” or the “State Government” are to the
Government of India, central or state, as applicable. All references to the “U.S.”, “US”, “U.S.A” or “United States”
are to the United States of America and its territories and possessions.

Unless otherwise specified, any time mentioned in this Red Herring Prospectus is in Indian Standard Time
(“IST”). Unless stated otherwise, all references to page numbers in this Red Herring Prospectus are to the page
numbers of this Red Herring Prospectus.

Financial Data

Unless stated or the context requires otherwise, the financial information in this Red Herring Prospectus is derived
from our Restated Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our Restated Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared by the Company in accordance with the
requirements of Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Companies Act, 2013, relevant provisions of the SEBI
ICDR Regulations, and the Guidance Note on Reports on Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019) issued by the
ICAI.

For further information on our Company’s financial information, see “Restated Consolidated Financial
Statements” on page 305. Our Company’s financial year commences on April 1 of the immediately preceding
calendar year and ends on March 31 of that particular calendar year; accordingly, all references to a particular
financial year or fiscal, unless stated otherwise, are to the 12 months period commencing on April 1 of the
immediately preceding calendar year and ending on March 31 of that particular calendar year. Reference in this
Red Herring Prospectus to the terms Fiscal or Fiscal Year or Financial Year is to the 12 months ended on March
31 of such year, unless otherwise specified and reference to stub period is to the three months period ended June
30.

The degree to which the financial information included in this Red Herring Prospectus will provide meaningful
information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Indian accounting policies and practices,
Ind AS, the Companies Act and SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not familiar with the
aforementioned policies and laws on the financial disclosures presented in this Red Herring Prospectus should be
limited. There are significant differences between Ind AS, Indian GAAP, U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Our Company
does not provide a reconciliation of its financial statements with Indian GAAP, IFRS or U.S. GAAP requirements.
Our Company has not attempted to explain those differences or quantify their impact on the financial data included
in this Red Herring Prospectus and it is urged that you consult your own advisors regarding such differences and
their impact on our financial data. For further details in connection with risks involving differences between Ind
AS and other accounting principles, see “Risk Factors – Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other
accounting principles, such as Indian GAAP, U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which investors may be more familiar with
and may consider material to their assessment of our financial condition” on page 93.

Unless the context otherwise requires or indicates, any percentage amounts (excluding certain operational
metrics), as set forth in “Risk Factors”, “Our Business”, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” on pages 33, 220 and 382, respectively, and elsewhere in this Red Herring
Prospectus have been derived from the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements.

In this Red Herring Prospectus, any discrepancies in any table between the total and the sums of the amounts
listed are due to rounding off. Except as otherwise stated, all figures in decimals have been rounded off to the
second decimal and all the percentage figures have been rounded off to two decimal places. In certain instances,
(i) the sum or percentage change of such numbers may not conform exactly to the total figure given; and (ii) the
sum of the numbers in a column or row in certain tables may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that
column or row.

Further, any figures sourced from third-party industry sources may be rounded off to other than two decimal points
to conform to their respective sources.

16
Non-GAAP Measures

Certain non-GAAP measures such as EBIT, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Gross Margin, Capital Employed, Return
on Capital Employed, Return on Equity, PAT Margin, total borrowings and debt to equity ratio, total product sales
to revenue from operations (standalone), Net Worth and Return on Net Worth and net asset value per equity share
(“Non-GAAP Measures”) presented in this Red Herring Prospectus are a supplemental measure of our
performance and liquidity that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, Ind AS, Indian GAAP, or
IFRS. Further, these Non-GAAP Measures are not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under
Ind AS, Indian GAAP, or IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash
flows, profit / (loss) for the year / period or any other measure of financial performance or as an indicator of our
operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing
activities derived in accordance with Ind AS, Indian GAAP, or IFRS. In addition, these Non-GAAP Measures are
not a standardised term and, therefore, a direct comparison of similarly titled Non-GAAP Measures between
companies may not be possible. Other companies may calculate the Non-GAAP Measures differently from us,
limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure. Although the Non-GAAP Measures are not a measure of
performance calculated in accordance with applicable accounting standards, our Company’s management believes
that they are useful to an investor in evaluating us because these are widely used measures to evaluate a company’s
operating performance. See “Risk Factors” on page 33.

Currency and Units of Presentation

All references to “Rupees” or “₹” or “Rs.” are to Indian Rupees, the official currency of the Republic of India.

All references to “U.S.$”, “U.S. Dollar”, “USD” or “U.S. Dollars” are to United States Dollars, the official
currency of the United States of America.

In this Red Herring Prospectus, our Company has presented certain numerical information. All figures have been
expressed in millions. One million represents ‘10 lakhs’ or 1,000,000. However, where any figures that may have
been sourced from third-party industry sources are expressed in denominations other than millions, such figures
appear in this Red Herring Prospectus expressed in such denominations as provided in their respective sources.

Exchange Rates

This Red Herring Prospectus contains conversion of certain other currency amounts into Indian Rupees that have
been presented solely to comply with the SEBI ICDR Regulations. These conversions should not be construed as
a representation that these currency amounts could have been, or can be converted into Indian Rupees, at any
particular rate or at all.

Unless otherwise stated, the exchange rates referred to for the purpose of conversion of foreign currency amounts
into Rupee amounts, are as follows.

Currency Exchange Rate as on


June 30, 2023 March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022 March 31, 2021

derived from publicly available information as well as industry publication and sources. Further, the information
has also been derived from the report titled “Real Estate Industry Report” dated November 24, 2023 (the

from Anarock Property Consultants Private Limited. For risks in relation to commissioned reports, see “Risk

commissioned by us for such purpose. There can be no assurance that such third-party statistical, financial and
other industry information is either complete or accurate” on page 81.

this Red Herring Prospectus and any market and industry related data, other than that derived from the Company
Commissioned Anarock Report, used in this Red Herring Prospectus has been obtained or derived from publicly
available documents and other industry sources.

Industry sources and publications generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from
sources generally believed to be reliable, but their accuracy, completeness and underlying assumptions are not
guaranteed, and their reliability cannot be assured and accordingly, investment decisions should not be based on
such information. The data used in these sources may have been re-classified by us for the purposes of
presentation. Data from these sources may also not be comparable. Industry sources and publications are also
prepared based on information as of specific dates and may no longer be current or reflect current trends. Industry
sources and publications may also base their information on estimates, projections, forecasts and assumptions that
may prove to be incorrect. Such data involves risks, uncertainties and numerous assumptions and is subject to
change based on various factors, including those discussed in the section ‘Risk Factors’ on page 33. Accordingly,
investors should not place undue reliance on, or base their investment decision on this information.

The extent to which the market and industry data used in this Red Herring Prospectus is meaningful depends on
the reader’s familiarity with and understanding of the methodologies used in compiling such data. There are no
standard data gathering methodologies in the industry in which business of our Company is conducted, and
methodologies and assumptions may vary widely among different industry sources.

In accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations, “Basis for Issue Price”, beginning on page 145 includes
information relating to our peer group companies. Such information has been derived from publicly available
sources. No investment decision should be made solely on the basis of such information.

Notice to Prospective Investors

The Equity Shares have not been recommended by any U.S. federal or state securities commission or regulatory
authority. Furthermore, the foregoing authorities have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of
this Red Herring Prospectus or approved or disapproved the Equity Shares. Any representation to the contrary is
a criminal offence in the United States. In making an investment decision, investors must rely on their own
examination of our Company and the terms of the Issue, including the merits and risks involved. The Equity
Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any other applicable law of the
United States and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold within the United States except pursuant to an
exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and
applicable U.S. state securities laws. Accordingly, the Equity Shares are being offered and sold outside the United
States in “offshore transactions” as defined in, and in reliance on, Regulation S and the applicable laws of the
jurisdictions where those offers and sales are made.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Red Herring Prospectus contains certain “forward-looking statements”. These forward-looking statements
generally can be identified by words or phrases such as “aim”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “estimate”,
“intend”, “objective”, “plan”, “propose”, “project”, “will”, “will continue”, “will pursue” or other words or
phrases of similar import but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Similarly, statements
that describe our strategies, objectives, plans, goals, future events, future financial performance or financial needs
are also forward-looking statements. All statements regarding our expected financial conditions, results of
operations, business plans and prospects are forward-looking statements. However, these are not the exclusive
means of identifying forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties, expectations and assumptions about us that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
contemplated by the relevant forward-looking statement.

Actual results may differ materially from those suggested by forward-looking statements due to risks or
uncertainties associated with expectations relating to and including, regulatory changes pertaining to the industries
in India in which we operate and our ability to respond to them, our ability to successfully implement our strategy,
our growth and expansion, technological changes, our exposure to market risks, general economic and political
conditions in India which have an impact on its business activities or investments, the monetary and fiscal policies
of India, inflation, deflation, unanticipated turbulence in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices or
other rates or prices, the performance of the financial markets in India and globally, changes in domestic laws,
regulations and taxes and changes in competition in the industries in which we operate.

Certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are
not limited to, the following:

 Inability to collect our loans and advances from related parties;

 Heavy dependence of the performance of, and the conditions affecting, the real estate markets in the SCM;

 Ability to anticipate and respond to consumer preference and requirements in the residential real estate
market;

 Uncertainty in the title of our real estate assets;

 Ability to complete our projects by the expected completion dates;

 Inability to successfully identify and acquire suitable land parcels;

 Increase in price of land; and

 Availability of real estate financing on acceptable terms or at all.

For details regarding factors that could cause actual results to differ from expectations, see “Risk Factors”, “Our
Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”,
beginning on pages 33, 220 and 382, respectively. By their nature, certain market risk disclosures are only
estimates and could be materially different from what actually occurs in the future. As a result, actual gains or
losses could materially differ from those that have been estimated.

There can be no assurance to Bidders that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements will
prove to be correct. Given these uncertainties, Bidders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-
looking statements and not to regard such statements to be a guarantee of our future performance.

Forward-looking statements reflect current views as on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus and are not a
guarantee of future performance. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which
in turn are based on currently available information. Although we believe the assumptions upon which these
forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of these assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and
the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions could be incorrect. Neither our Company, our
Promoter, our Directors, the BRLMsnor any of its respective affiliates or advisors have any obligation to update
or otherwise revise any statements reflecting circumstances arising after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence

19
of underlying events, even if the underlying assumptions do not come to fruition. In accordance with the SEBI
ICDR Regulations, our Company and the BRLMswill ensure that the Bidders in India are informed of material
developments until the time of the grant of listing and trading permission by the Stock Exchanges for the Issue.

Primary business of our Company

We have been involved in the real estate business since 1986 and develop real estate across the residential and
commercial sectors in South Central Mumbai region. We have a residential portfolio located in the markets of
Mahim, Dadar, Prabhadevi and Parel, which are sub-markets of the South-Central Mumbai micro market where
we have established our presence. We are focused primarily on value luxury, luxury segments and commercial
segment. We are now venturing into residential real estate development in Bandra sub-market.

Our focus area of operation is the South-Central region in Mumbai mainly consisting of Mahim, Matunga, Dadar,
Prabhadevi and Parel, as our expertise lies is in the redevelopment of tenanted properties under Regulation 33(7)
of the Development Control and Promotion Regulations (“DCPR”) in the Mumbai region. Since most of the land
parcels in the South Central Mumbai market are in the nature of redevelopment projects, our core competence lies
in tenant settlement which is a key element for unlocking value on such land parcels. We identify cessed/ non-
cessed properties with existing tenants, and tie up with the landlords of such tenanted properties by entering into
a development agreement or on outright purchase basis through conveyance deed. Our Company does not provide
any construction services on its own and is 100% dependent on third party contractors for the construction services
of its Projects. Since incorporation, we have completed forty-two (42) projects with a developed area of more than
1,046,543.20 square feet in the South-Central Mumbai region. In addition to the Completed Projects, we have
thirteen (13) Ongoing Projects with a developable area of 2,034,434.40 square feet and saleable RERA carpet area
609,928 square feet and sixteen (16) Upcoming Projects with an estimated carpet area of 744,149 square feet.

Industry in which our Company operates

It is a globally established fact that demographic shifts fundamentally affect the demand for real estate. India’s
large population base of over 1.37 bn provides a huge domestic demand base which attracts businesses from across
the world to setup their operations here. Along with rising population, India’s urbanization rate is also increasing
at a fast pace. As per UNDP projections, by 2046 approx. 50% of population in India will be urban. However,
rapid urbanization is expected to drive the demand for housing, offices and other real estate asset classes in the
medium – long term. UNDP has projected that there will be 8 cities with a population of 10 mn & above by the
year 2035 in India, highlighting the unmet housing demand.

Risk factors

The top 10 risk factors are as follows:

 Our business is dependent on the performance of, and the conditions affecting, the real estate sub markets in
the South-Central Mumbai region. As of October 31, 2023, we did not have any ongoing projects in any other
areas apart from South Central Mumbai. Consequently, we are exposed to risks from economic, regulatory
and other changes as well as natural disasters in the South Central Mumbai region, which in turn may have
an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

 Any uncertainty in our title to our real estate assets could have a material adverse impact on our current and
future revenue.

 Our redevelopment projects require compliance of the provisions of Regulation 33(7) of the Development
Control and Promotion Regulation, 2034. The compliance inter alia involves tenant settlement, approvals
from MHADA & MCGM, construction of the tenant and saleable portion units.

 Inability to complete our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects by their respective expected completion
dates or at all could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

 As of October 31, 2023, we have total 216 unsold units in our Ongoing Projects. If we are not able to sell our
project inventories in a timely manner, then it may adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.

 As of October 31, 2023, we had 16 Upcoming Projects which are in the preliminary stages of planning and
require approvals and renewals of certain approvals from Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation for our
projects that are typically valid for one year from the date of approval. Any difficulties in fulfilling certain
conditions precedent in respect of those projects, and any delay or failure to obtain required approvals or
renewal of approvals may require us to reschedule our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects which may
have adverse effect on our operations. Further, our Company has to stop the construction activity in the event
of withdrawal of such licenses/approval.

 Our business is subject to seasonality and we may experience difficulties in expanding our business into
additional geographical markets including MMR region which may contribute to fluctuations in our results
of operations and financial condition.

 The industry in which we operate is competitive and highly fragmented resulting in increased competition
that may adversely affect our results.

 Any negative cash flows in the future would adversely affect our cash flow requirements, which may
adversely affect our ability to operate our business and implement our growth plans, thereby affecting our
financial condition.

 Our Statutory Auditors have included certain matters of emphasis in our Financial Statements.

Investors should see “Risk Factors”, beginning on page 33 to have an informed view before making an investment
decision.

An investment in equity shares involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider all the
information in this Red Herring Prospectus, including the risks and uncertainties described below, before making
an investment in our Equity Shares. The risks described below are not the only ones relevant to us or our Equity
Shares, but also to the industry in which we operate or to India. Additional risks and uncertainties, not currently
known to us or that we currently do not deem material may also adversely affect our business, results of
operations, cash flows and financial condition. If any of the following risks, or other risks that are not currently
known or are not currently deemed material, actually occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows and
financial condition could be adversely affected, the price of our Equity Shares could decline, and investors may
lose all or part of their investment. In order to obtain a complete understanding of our Company and our business,
prospective investors should read this section in conjunction with “Our Business” and “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” on pages 220 and 382, respectively,

Unless otherwise indicated, the financial information included herein is based on our Restated Consolidated
Financial Statements included in this Red Herring Prospectus. For further information, see “Restated
Consolidated Financial Statements” on page 305. We have, in this Red Herring Prospectus, included various
operational and financial performance indicators, some of which may not be derived from our Restated
Consolidated Financial Statements and may not have been subjected to an audit or review by our Statutory
Auditor. The manner in which such operational and financial performance indicators are calculated and
presented, and the assumptions and estimates used in such calculation, may vary from that used by other real
estate companies in India and other jurisdictions. Investors are accordingly cautioned against placing undue
reliance on such information in making an investment decision and should consult their own advisors and evaluate
such information in the context of the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements and other information relating
to our business and operations included in this Red Herring Prospectus.

Internal Risk Factors

Risks relating to our business

1. Our business is dependent on the performance of, and the conditions affecting, the real estate sub markets
in the South-Central Mumbai region. As of October 31, 2023, we did not have any ongoing projects in any
other areas apart from South Central Mumbai. Consequently, we are exposed to risks from economic,
regulatory and other changes as well as natural disasters in the South Central Mumbai region, which in
turn may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Our real estate development activities are primarily focused in and around the South Central Mumbai region. As
of October 31, 2023, 42 Completed Projects, 13 Ongoing Projects, 16 Upcoming Projects, and 10,359.77 Square
Meters of our Land Reserves are located in the South Central Mumbai, Bandra (West) and Santacruz (East). As
of October 31, 2023, we did not have any ongoing projects in any other areas apart from South Central Mumbai.
For further information on our projects and Land Reserves, see “Our Business – Business Operations” and “Our
Business – Our Land Reserves” on pages 232 and 244, respectively. As a result, our business, financial condition
and results of operations have been and will continue to be heavily dependent on the performance of, and the
prevailing conditions affecting, the real estate markets in the South-Central Mumbai region. The real estate
markets in this region may be affected by various factors outside our control, including prevailing local and
economic conditions, changes in the supply and demand for properties comparable to those we develop, changes
in the applicable governmental regulations, demographic trends, employment and income levels and interest rates,
among other factors. These factors may contribute to fluctuations in real estate prices and the availability of land
in South Central Mumbai and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
These factors can also negatively affect the demand for and valuation of our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming
Projects.

Further, real estate projects take a substantial amount of time to develop. The price at which we acquire land, either through an outright purchase or through acquisition of joint
development rights, and the price at which we sell Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects are determined by factors mentioned above, which are out of our control. In the
event we are forced to sell our units in Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects at a price which is lower than estimated, it may adversely affect our results of operations.
Further, the real estate market, both for land and developed properties is relatively illiquid, which may limit our ability to respond promptly to changing market events. In the
event the market conditions deteriorate and cause a sharp decline in real estate prices in South Central Mumbai, our business, financial condition and results of operations could
be materially and adversely affected.

35
2. Any uncertainty in our title to our real estate assets could have a material adverse impact on our current
and future revenue.

As on October 31, 2023, out of 13 Ongoing projects and 16 Upcoming Project, we have directly acquired land for
9 Ongoing projects through conveyance deed (balance 4 ongoing project acquired by way of development
agreement with landowners) and 10 Upcoming Projects through conveyance deed (balance 6 upcoming project
acquired by way of development agreement with landowners) with the landowners. While we conduct due
diligence and assess such land prior to acquisition of any land or interest in any land, obtaining title guarantees in
India is challenging as title records provide only for presumptive rather than guaranteed title of the land. Such
land may involve irregularities in title, such as improperly executed or non-executed, unregistered or insufficiently
stamped conveyance instruments in the chain of title of the relevant land, unregistered encumbrances in favour of
third parties, rights of adverse possessors, ownership claims of family members of prior owners, and other defects
which may not be revealed through our diligence and assessment. Further, the original title to such land may be
fragmented and the land may have multiple owners and such information may not be publicly available or revealed
through our diligence and assessment. As each transfer in a chain of title may be subject to any such or other
defects, our title and/ or development right over such land may be subject to such irregularities that we are not
aware of, and which our diligence and assessment exercise may not reveal. As a result, title to such land is subject
to risks and potential liabilities arising from inaccuracy of such information. Such inaccurate information and any
defects or irregularities of title may result in the loss of title or development rights over such land, and/ or the
cancellation of our development plan in respect of such land. In addition, certain acquisition of or development
right to land may involve deferred payments. If we are unable to fulfil such payment obligations, our ability to
develop such land may be affected, resulting in a failure to realize profit on our initial investment.

While we typically obtain independent title reports for the land relating to our projects, and have obtained such
reports with respect to our Land Reserves, we may not be able to assess or identify all the risks and liabilities
associated with such land, such as faulty or disputed title, unregistered encumbrances or adverse possession rights.
In addition, very few insurance companies in India provide title insurance to guarantee title or development rights
in respect of land. In absence of such title insurance, together with the challenges involved in verifying title to
land, may increase our exposure to third party claims to such land. As a result, the uncertainty of title makes land
acquisition and real estate development projects more complex and may impede the transfer of title, expose us to
legal disputes and adversely affect the valuation of the land involved. In addition, we may also face the risk of
illegal encroachments on the land parcels owned by us or over which we have development rights. We may be
required to incur additional costs and face delays in our project development schedule in order to clear such
encroachments. Disputes relating to land title can take several years and considerable expense to resolve if they
become the subject of legal proceedings and their outcome can be uncertain. If we are unable to resolve such
disputes, the title to and/ or interest in, such land may be affected. While we have not experienced any instances
of faulty or disputed title, unregistered encumbrances or adverse possession rights in the past which has adversely
impacted our financial results, an inability to obtain good title to any plot of land may adversely affect the
development of a project for which such plot of land is critical and this may result in the write-off of expenses
incurred in relation to such development. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations
could be materially and adversely affected.

3. Our redevelopment projects require compliance of the provisions of Regulation 33(7) of the Development
Control and Promotion Regulation, 2034. The compliance inter alia involves tenant settlement, approvals
from MHADA & MCGM, construction of the tenant and saleable portion units.

As on October 31, 2023, we have redeveloped houses for more than 1,011 tenants in 42 Completed Projects, free-
of-cost under regulation 33(7) of the Development Control and Promotion Regulation, 2034 (“DCP
Regulations”). Compliance of Regulation 33(7) of the DCP Regulations enables sanction of more than FSI - 3.00
for development from regulatory authorities. DCP Regulations applies to all development, redevelopment,
erection and/or re-erection of a building, change of user etc. as well as to the design, construction or reconstruction
of, and additions and alterations to a building and may take longer time than anticipated by us. If we are unable
to acquire such transferable development rights (“TDRs”) or approval under Regulation 33(7) of the DCP
Regulations within the estimated time or if we are unable to acquire them at the expected price for permissible
floor space index for redevelopment projects, then this may impact our ability to complete certain projects due to
us having insufficient FSI or because of a significant increase in the cost of completing such projects. The price
and availability of TDRs may have an adverse effect on our ability to complete our projects and on our financial
condition and results of operations. However, cost incurred for redevelopment of such houses under DCP
Regulations is included in the overall project cost and therefore, we have not made any losses for redeveloped

36
houses for more than 1,011 tenants in 42 Completed Projects. In addition, the use and development of land is
subject to regulations by various local authorities.

Further, we are subject to municipal planning and land use regulations in effect in South Central Mumbai, which
limit the maximum square footage of completed buildings we may construct on plots to specified amounts,
calculated based on a ratio of the combined gross floor area of all floors, except areas specifically exempted, to
the total area of each plot of land (the floor space index, or “FSI”).

Our operations are focused in the South Central Mumbai and adjoining areas. The availability of developable
land, particularly in the South Central Mumbai region, is limited and therefore, the acquisition of new land in
these parts poses substantial challenges, is highly competitive and costly. Further, due to the increased demand
for land in connection with the development of residential, commercial and retail properties, we have experienced
and may continue to experience increased competition in our attempt to acquire land/ interest in such land in the
geographical areas in which we operate and the areas in which we anticipate operating in the future. This increased
competition may result in a shortage of suitable land that can be used for development and can increase the price
of land. We may not be able to or may decide not to acquire parcels of land due to various factors including price
of land. Further, we may not be able to pass on the cost of acquisition to customers of our real estate projects. Any
such increase in the price of land to be used for development could materially and adversely affect our business,
prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

4. Inability to complete our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects by their respective expected completion
dates or at all could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

Some of our projects are developed on land owned by us. As of October 31, 2023, our 13 Ongoing Projects have
an aggregate carpet area for sale of 609,928 square feet, and our 16 Upcoming Projects have an aggregate
estimated carpet area for sale of 744,149 square feet. Our ability to complete our projects within the estimated
time or at all is subject to a number of risks and unforeseen events, including, without limitation, clear title to the
relevant plot of land, clearance of encroachment, if any, any changes in applicable regulations, availability of
adequate financing arrangements on commercially viable terms, and an inability or delay in securing necessary
statutory or regulatory approvals for such projects or revision of such statutory or regulatory approval for our
ongoing projects. If there are any revisions made to the existing plans, approvals, permits or licenses granted for
our ongoing projects by relevant authorities, then we may, as a result of such revisions, be required to undertake
unplanned rework, including demolition on such projects. Further, there were delays in construction activities in
2020 and 2021 due to the lockdown imposed in India to control the Covid-19 pandemic, however, there were no
penalty levied by RERA or paid by us in the three month period ended on June 30, 2023 and Fiscals 2023, 2022
and 2021. While the applicable regulations also extended project timelines by one year on account of the
pandemic, there can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the extended timelines in the event we
are subject to any further delays in our construction activities. Our Company has not faced any instances in
preceding three years, where there has been delay in completion and handover projects and for such instances our
Company has paid penalty to our customers and land owners.

For further information on our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects including target dates (as applicable) and
any delays (no of days), applicable cost consequent to such delays, see “Our Business – Business Operation”
on pages 232.

In addition, we may not receive the expected benefits of the development rights or the relevant land, and we may
not be able to develop the estimated Developable Area resulting from a lack of knowledge of, or any
misunderstanding with respect to, existing or proposed regulations and policies. If any of the foregoing risks
materialize, we may not be able to complete our projects or develop our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects
in the manner we currently contemplate, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

In addition, the agreements we enter into with customers for our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects may
require us to pay certain interest in the event of any delay in the completion of the construction and development
of such projects within the specified timelines, or in the event of cancellation of any of these projects. Accordingly,
any such delay or cancellation resulting in payments by us may have an adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operation.

37
5. As of October 31, 2023, we have total 216 unsold units in our Ongoing Projects. If we are not able to sell
our project inventories in a timely manner, then it may adversely affect our business, results of operations
and financial condition.

As of October 31, 2023, we had thirteen (13) Ongoing Projects with a Developable Area of 20,34,434.40 square
feet. As of October 31, 2023, ten (10) Ongoing Projects operated by our Company comprised 558 units, of which
153 units remain unsold and one (1) Ongoing Project is operated by our Subsidiary, Accord Estates Private
Limited comprised 84 units, of which 26 units remain unsold and one (1) Ongoing Project is operated by our
Subsidiary, Skyline Realty Private Limited comprised 59 units of which 2 units remain unsold and one (1)
Ongoing Project is operated by our Step-down Subsidiary Uditi Premises Private Limited comprised 35 units of
which 35 units remain unsold: Except as disclosed above in relation to unsold units, there are no unsold flats in
any of our Ongoing Projects by our Company and its Subsidiaries as on October 31, 2023.

6. As of October 31, 2023, we had 16 Upcoming Projects which are in the preliminary stages of planning and
require approvals and renewals of certain approvals from Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation for our
projects that are typically valid for one year from the date of approval. Any difficulties in fulfilling certain
conditions precedent in respect of those projects, and any delay or failure to obtain required approvals or
renewal of approvals may require us to reschedule our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects which
may have adverse effect on our operations. Further, our Company has to stop the construction activity in
the event of withdrawal of such licenses/approval.

As of October 31, 2023, we had 13 Ongoing Projects and 16 Upcoming Projects. Our development plans in
relation to our Upcoming Projects are yet to be finalized and approved. To successfully execute each of these
projects, we are required to obtain statutory and regulatory approvals and permits for which applications need to
be made to the concerned authority at appropriate stages of the projects. For example, we are required to obtain
the approval of building plans, layout plans, environmental consents and fire safety clearances for each of our
projects. Further, we may be required to renew certain of our existing approvals. Further, following key approvals,
which are in the nature of operational licenses will expire within two years in the ordinary course of business and
our Company or our Subsidiaries, as the case may be, will seek renewal in line with our past practices:

Note: The ‘intimation of disapproval’ (“IOD”) is the first authorisation obtained in the process and is issued by
Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (“BMC” which was erstwhile known as Municipal Corporation of Greater
Mumbai (“MCGM”)). The IOD is typically issued subject to fulfilment of certain compliance conditions and once
we demonstrate compliance with the conditions a commencement certificate (CC) is issued. Once the CC is
received, we can commence work on the land.

Further, our Company has to stop the construction activity in the event of withdrawal of such licenses/approval.
While we will make the applications for renewal of these approvals at the appropriate time, we cannot assure you
that we will be granted such approvals in a timely manner. Any inability to renew these approvals may have an
adverse effect on our operations. For details regarding the pending material approvals of our Company, on a
consolidated basis, see “Government and Other Approvals” on page 435.

Any delay or failure to obtain the required approvals or renewals in accordance with our plans may adversely
affect our ability to implement our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects which may adversely affect our
business and prospects. Moreover, we may encounter material difficulties in fulfilling any conditions precedent
to the approvals or renewals such as failure to obtain a certificate of change of land use in respect of lands
designated for purposes other than real estate development. Further, we may not be able to adapt to new laws,
regulations or policies that may come into effect from time to time with respect to the real estate industry in
general or the particular processes with respect to the granting of approvals or renewals, which may cause a delay
in the implementation of our projects. For instance, if there is a change in the approved land use in urban master
plan areas, we may be required to obtain new consents for the use of our land and any failure on our part to obtain
such consents may adversely affect our business and results of operation. For details regarding the pending
material approvals of our Company, on a consolidated basis, see “Government and Other Approvals” on page
435.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain approvals or renewals in relation to our new projects, at such
times or in such form as we may require, or at all. The laws and regulations, under which we and our subcontractors
operate, may result in delays or stoppage in construction and development, causing us to incur substantial
compliance costs and other increased costs, and prohibit or severely restrict our real estate and construction
businesses. If we are unable to continue to acquire, construct and develop land as a result of these restrictions or
if our compliance costs increase substantially, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be
adversely affected.

7. Our business is subject to seasonality and we may experience difficulties in expanding our business into
additional geographical markets including MMR region which may contribute to fluctuations in our
results of operations and financial condition.

We experience seasonality in our business. Our operations may be adversely affected by difficult working
conditions during monsoons that restrict our ability to carry on construction activities to some extent and fully
utilize our resources. Our sales may also increase during the last quarter of every Fiscal. Accordingly, our results
of operations in one quarter may not accurately reflect the trends for the entire financial year and may not be
comparable with our results of operations for other quarters.

We may also experience difficulties in expanding our business into additional geographical markets including
MMR region. While the sub markets within South Central Mumbai region are expected to remain our primary
strategic focus, we also evaluate attractive growth opportunities in various other micro markets on a case by case
basis. We may not be able to leverage our experience in existing micro markets to expand our operations in other
MMR or into other cities, should we decide to further expand our operations. Factors such as competition, culture,
regulatory regimes, business practices and customs, customer tastes, behaviour and preferences in these regions
where we may plan to expand our operations may differ from those in the micro markets where we are currently
present, and our experience in such micro markets may not be applicable to other regions. In addition, as we enter
new regions, we are likely to compete not only with national developers, but also local developers who have an
established local presence, are more familiar with local regulations, business practices and customs, have stronger
relationships with local contractors, suppliers, relevant government authorities, and who have access to existing
land reserves or are in a stronger financial position than us, all of which may give them a competitive advantage
over us.

If we plan to expand our geographical footprint, our business will be exposed to various additional challenges,
including adjusting our construction methods to different terrains; obtaining necessary governmental approvals
and building permits under unfamiliar regulatory regimes; identifying and collaborating with local business

45
partners, construction contractors and suppliers with whom we may have no previous working relationship;
successfully gauging market conditions in local real estate markets with which we have no previous familiarity;
attracting potential customers in a market in which we do not have significant experience or visibility or brand
recognition; being susceptible to local taxation in additional geographical areas of India; and adapting our
marketing strategy. Our inability to expand into other areas may adversely affect our business prospects, financial
conditions and results of operations.”

8. The industry in which we operate is competitive and highly fragmented resulting in increased competition
that may adversely affect our results.

Our Company preferentially operates on an asset light business model, in which low initial investment is deployed.
Moreover, due to the lesser requirements of technical expertise in the residential real estate sector as opposed to
the industrial/ infrastructure construction sector, the residential real estate sector has a larger number of new
entrants and existing players from whom we face competition. These new and existing players undertake projects
in the same regional markets in which our projects are located. Given the fragmented nature of the real estate
development industry, we often do not have adequate information about the property our competitors are
developing and accordingly, run the risk of underestimating supply in the market. Our inability to compete
successfully in our industry with the new entrants or the existing players may materially affect our business
prospects and financial condition.

Further, we compete for land, sale of projects, manpower resources and skilled personnel with other developers.
Some of our competitors may have greater resources (including financial, land resources, and other types of
infrastructure) to take advantage of efficiencies created by size, and access to capital at lower costs, have a better
brand recall, and established relationships with homeowners. For instance, we face competition from developers
including Macrotech Developers Limited, Oberoi Realty Limited, D B Realty Limited and Hubtown Developers
Limited, that have residential projects in South Central Micro Market (Source: Company Commissioned Anarock
Report).

Our success in the future will depend significantly on our ability to maintain and increase market share in the face
of such competition. Our inability to compete successfully with the existing players in the industry, may affect
our business prospects and financial condition.

9. Any negative cash flows in the future would adversely affect our cash flow requirements, which may
adversely affect our ability to operate our business and implement our growth plans, thereby affecting our
financial condition.

We have in the past experienced, and may in the future, experience negative operating cash flows. The following
table sets forth certain information relating to our cash flows on a consolidated basis for the periods indicated:
(In ₹ million)
Particulars Three month period Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2021
ended on June 30,
2023
Net cash generated / (used in) 245.05 1,885.25 697.57 (149.31)
from operating activities
Net cash (used in)/ from 40.32 (271.22) (210.63) (122.69)
investing activities

We experienced negative cash flows used in the operating activities in the Fiscal 2021 due to increase in loans,
trade receivable and other assets of ₹468.60 million, increase in inventories of ₹223.10 million and decrease in
trade payable, other liabilities and provisions of ₹339.20 million. Negative cash flows over extended periods, or
significant negative cash flows in the short term, could materially impact our ability to operate our business and
implement our growth plans. As a result, our cash flows, business, future financial performance and results of
operations could be materially and adversely affected. For further information, see “Restated Consolidated
Financial Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations” on pages 305 and 382.

12. We intend to utilise a portion of the Net Proceeds for repayment/ prepayment, in full or part, of borrowings
availed by our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Skyline Realry Private Limited and Iconic
Property Developers Private Limited and Iconic Property Developers Private Limited does not contribute
in our consolidated revenues from operation during the Fiscals 2021, 2022 and 2023 and three months’
period ended on June 30, 2023.

We intend to utilise a portion of the Net Proceeds towards repayment / prepayment, in full or part, of borrowings
availed by our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited and Iconic Property Developers Private Limited.
Further, please, see “Objects of the Issue” on page 130, for the brief financials of Accord Estates Private Limited
and Iconic Property Developers Private Limited whose debt is intended to be repaid out of the Net Proceeds. Our
consolidated revenues from operation is ₹1,024.10 million, ₹ 3,057.44 million, ₹2,727.18 million and ₹2,399.87
million for three months period ended June 30, 2023,, Fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively wherein revenues
from operation of Accord Estates Private Limited representing 9.42%, 11.25%,10.80% and 25.31%, Skyline
Realty Private Limited representing 4.62%. 7.22% ,12.74% and Nil of our total revenue from operation for such
period and revenues from operation of Iconic Property Developers Private Limited representing Nil, Nil, Nil and
Nil of our total revenue from operation for such period. Accord Estates Private Limited was incorporated in
October 14, 1987, Skyline Realty Private Limited was incorporated September 19, 2006 while Iconic Property
Developers Private Limited was incorporated in July 26, 2010.

The obligation of our Company towards Subsidiaries is restricted to providing funding requirements in enhancing
the business of its subsidiaries and providing credit support for various loans availed by them. Any failure in

50
performance, financial or otherwise, of our Subsidiaries in which we have made investment could have a material
adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations of our Company.

13. Our business is capital intensive and requires us to incur expenditure for land acquisition and development
and we have incurred expenditure of ₹ 834.42 million, ₹ 2,646.78 million, ₹2,377.56 million and ₹2,349.52
million in the three month period ended on June 30, 2023 and Fiscals 2023, 2022 and 2021 respectively.
Therefore, we are heavily dependent on the availability of real estate financing, which may not be available
on terms acceptable to us in a timely manner or at all

Development of real estate projects requires us to incur various expenses and part of which we fund through real
estate financing from banks and other financial institutions. As of September 30, 2023, we had total financial
indebtedness of ₹5,688.25 million. For further information on our secured borrowings, see “Financial
Indebtedness” on page 368. Further, we have incurred expenditure of ₹834.42 million, ₹2,646.78 million,
₹2,377.56 million and ₹2,349.52 million in the three-month period ended on June 30, 2023 and Fiscals 2023, 2022
and 2021 respectively. As we intend to pursue a strategy of continued investment in our development activities,
we will incur additional expenditure in the current and future fiscal periods. We propose to fund such expenditure
through a combination of debt, equity and internal accruals. Our ability to borrow and the terms of our borrowings
will depend on our financial condition, the stability of our cash flows and our capacity to service debt in a rising
interest rate environment.

The table sets forth the expenditure incurred by the Company for the three months’ period ended June 30, 2023
and fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021:
(In ₹ million)
As of As of March 31,
Expenditure incurred June 30,
2023 2023 2022 2021
Operating and project expenses 280.23 1,659.96 1,807.40 1,641.95
Changes in inventories of construction work in progress 181.61 (312.95) (556.95) (223.11)
Employee benefit expenses 33.34 116.00 97.39 76.12
Finance costs 271.89 1,073.54 930.96 792.07
Depreciation and amortization 5.75 25.83 36.75 23.87
Other expenses 61.60 84.40 62.01 38.62
Total 834.42 2,646.78 2,377.56 2,349.52

The actual amount and timing of our future capital requirements may also differ from estimates as a result of,
among other things, unforeseen delays or cost overruns in developing our projects, change in business plans due
to prevailing economic conditions, unanticipated expenses, regulatory changes and engineering design changes.
To the extent our planned expenditure requirements exceed our available resources, we will be required to seek
additional debt or equity financing. We may also have difficulty accessing capital markets, which may make it
more difficult or expensive to obtain financing in the future.

Moreover, certain of our loan documents contain provisions that may limit our ability to incur future debt, make
certain payments or take certain actions. In addition, the availability of borrowed funds for our business may be
greatly reduced, and lenders may require us to invest increased amounts of funds in a certain project or require
increased security coverage in connection with both new loans and the extension of facilities under existing loans.
We may not be successful in obtaining these additional funds in a timely manner, or on favourable terms or at all.
Without sufficient liquidity, we may not be able to acquire additional land or develop additional projects, which
would adversely affect our results of operations. If we do not have access to additional capital, we may be required
to delay, postpone or abandon some or all of our projects or reduce capital expenditures and the size of our
operations, any of which may adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

The following table sets forth certain information relating to debt-equity ratio and interest rate coverage ratio for
the periods indicated:

Notes:
1. Debt-equity ratio calculated as total debt divided by total shareholders’ equity.
2. Interest rate coverage ratio calculated as earnings before interest and tax /interest.
3. Return on Equity (ROE): calculated as Profit After Tax for the year/period attributable to shareholders divided by
Average Equity Shareholders Fund.
4. Return on Capital Employed (ROCE): Calculated as earnings before Interest and tax for the year/period excluding other
income divided by Average Capital Employed (Total Assets – Current Liability excluding short terms borrowings).
5. EBITDA Margin (in %): calculated as the percentage of EBITDA during a given year/period divided by revenue from
operations. This gives information regarding operating efficiency of our Company.
6. PAT Margin (in %): calculated as the restated profit after tax and non-controlling interest attributable to
equity shareholders of our Company divided by the revenue from operations. This gives information
regarding the overall profitability of our Company in comparison to revenue from operations of our
Company.

Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness will depend on our future performance and our ability to
generate cash, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, legal,
regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. If our future cash flows from operations and
other capital resources are insufficient to pay our debt obligations, our contractual obligations, or to fund our other
liquidity needs, we may be forced to sell our assets or attempt to restructure or refinance our existing indebtedness.
Our ability to restructure or refinance our debt will depend on the condition of the capital markets and our financial
condition at such time. Any refinancing of our debt could be at higher interest rates and may require us to comply
with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our business operations. The terms of existing or future
debt instruments may restrict us from adopting some of these alternatives. In addition, any failure to make
payments of interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness on a timely basis would likely result in a
reduction of our creditworthiness and/ or credit rating, which could harm our ability to incur additional
indebtedness on acceptable terms.

14. We are subject to extensive statutory or governmental regulations, including the Real Estate (Regulation
and Development) Act, 2016 (the “RERA”) and change in laws, rules, regulations and legal uncertainties,
including the withdrawal of certain benefits or adverse application of tax laws or any non-compliance of
any applicable law, may adversely affect our business, prospects and results of operations.

As on October 31, 2023, there are 13 Ongoing Projects (10 projects operated by our Company and 3 projects
operated by our Subsidiaries) of which 10 projects (8 projects operated by our Company and 2 projects operated
by our Subsidiaries) are registered under RERA. The real estate sector in India is heavily regulated by the central,
state and local governments including the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, the Maharashtra
Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948, the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966 and rules made
thereunder, the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966 and regulations thereunder, such as the
Unified Development Control and Promotion Regulations for Maharashtra State, the Maharashtra Stamp Act,
1958 and the Maharashtra Ownership of Flats (Regulation of the Promotion of Construction, Sale, Management
and Transfer) Act, 1963. The RERA was introduced in May 2017 to regulate the real estate industry and to ensure,
amongst others, imposition of certain responsibilities on real estate developers and accountability towards
customers and protection of their interest. The RERA has imposed certain obligations on real estate developers,
including us, such as mandatory registration of real estate projects, not issuing any advertisements or accepting
advances unless real estate projects are registered under RERA, maintenance of a separate escrow account for
amounts realised from each real estate project and restrictions on withdrawal of amounts from such escrow
accounts and taking customer approval for major changes in sanction plan. Further, while most state Governments
in India have notified rules in relation to RERA including Maharashtra where all our projects are located. In
addition, as the RERA regime has been introduced relatively recently in the May 2017 and was amended in

52
December 2021, we may face challenges in interpreting and complying with the provisions of the RERA due to
limited jurisprudence on them. Although we are in compliance with the provisions of RERA and have not received
any notice or observation from RERA, in the event our interpretation of provisions of the RERA differs from, or
contradicts with, any judicial pronouncements or clarifications issued by the Government in the future, we may
face regulatory actions or we may be required to undertake remedial steps. For further information on laws
applicable to our business, see “Key Regulations and Policies” on page 252.

Real estate developers are required to comply with a number of legal requirements, including policies and
procedures established and implemented by local authorities in relation to land acquisition, transfer of property,
registration and use of land. While there have been no instances of non-compliance with state specific legislations
in Maharashtra or blacklisting of promoter and revocation of registration of our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming
Projects in the past three Fiscals, which has adversely impacted our financial results, any non-compliance with
state specific legislations in Maharashtra may result in punishments (including penalties and/ or imprisonment),
blacklisting of promoter and revocation of registration of our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects which
may have a material and adverse impact on our business, operations and financial condition. Further, if a court of
competent jurisdiction adjudicates that we are in violation of applicable land ceiling laws, our property rights,
including those held through our various Subsidiaries may be compulsorily acquired by the State Government
concerned, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and future plans. Any
future violation of the provisions of RERA could result in penalties being imposed on us, which may have an
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Further, on December 2, 2020, the Government of Maharashtra notified the Unified Development Control and
Promotion Regulations for Maharashtra, 2020 (“UDCPR”) to boost real estate development in the state. The
UDCPR applies to all building activities and land works within the jurisdiction of all planning authorities and
regional plan areas, excluding those under the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai, MIDC, Jawaharlal
Nehru Port Trust, hill station municipal councils, notified eco-sensitive regions and the Lonavala Municipal
Council.

Our business and financial performance could be adversely affected by changes in law or interpretations of
existing, or the promulgation of new, laws, rules and regulations in India applicable to us and our business. The
Government has introduced several incentives to promote the construction and development of affordable
housing. For further information, see “Statement of Possible Tax Benefits” on page 156. There are also various
tax benefits under the Income Tax Act which are available to us and the purchasers of residential premises who
avail loans from banks or other financial institutions. We or our customers may not be able to realize these benefits
if there is a change in law or in interpretation of law resulting in the discontinuation or withdrawal of these tax
benefits. There can also be no assurance that the Central Government or the State Governments may not
implement new regulations and policies which will require us to obtain additional approvals and licenses from the
governments and other regulatory bodies or impose onerous requirements and conditions on our operations. Any
new regulations and policies and the related uncertainties with respect to the implementation of such new
regulations may have a material adverse effect on all our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, we may have to incur capital expenditures to comply with the requirements of any new regulations,
which may also materially harm our results of operations.

The real estate sector may also be affected by regulatory changes of a general nature. For example, on November
8, 2016, Indian currency notes of denominations 500 and 1,000 ceased to be legal tender (barring specific
exemptions for a limited time period). With effect from November 9, 2016, persons holding the se currency notes
were required to deposit them with bank branches and post offices or use them for only specified purposes. While
new Indian currency notes of denominations 500 and 2,000 were subsequently introduced, the immediate impact
of these measures was a decrease in cash liquidity in India which in turn negatively affected consumer spending.
This demonetization had a negative effect on the secondary market for residential properties, which in turn
dampened demand in the primary market. Any future measures taken by the Government in response to diseases
such as Covid-19, which may include lockdowns, may affect the availability of labour and our ability to function
normally and may consequently have an adverse effect on our projects, business and results of operations.

Unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new, laws, rules and regulations
including foreign investment laws governing our business, operations and group structure could result in us being
deemed to be in contravention of such laws and may require us to apply for additional approvals. We may incur
increased costs and other burdens relating to compliance with such new requirements, which may also require
significant management time and other resources, and any failure to comply may adversely affect our business,
prospects and results of operations. Uncertainty in the applicability, interpretation or implementation of any

53
amendment to, or change in, governing law, regulation or policy, including by reason of an absence, or a limited
body, of administrative or judicial precedent may be time consuming as well as costly for us to resolve and may
affect our business, prospects and results of operations.

Although there are no outstanding loans and advances from related parties as on June 30, 2023, there is no guarantee that we will recover our loans and advances from related
parties or if we are unable to collect our loans and advances from related parties, our cash flows could be adversely affected.

17. Our redevelopment projects have long gestation periods and any delays and cost overruns in relation to
our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects could adversely affect our prospects, business and results of
operations. If we are unable to complete our projects in a timely manner or at all, it would adversely affect
our business prospects, financial conditions and results of operations.

It may take a considerable period of time, following the acquisition of land, before income or positive cash flows
can be generated through the sale or lease of a real estate project. Real estate projects take a substantial amount
of time to develop and we could incur losses if we purchase land during periods when land prices are high, and
sell or lease our developed properties when property prices are relatively lower. Additionally, there could be
delays and cost overruns in relation to our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects and we cannot assure you
that we will be able to complete these projects within the expected budgets and time schedules. The RERA was
implemented in 2017 to regulate the real estate industry and to ensure, amongst others, imposition of certain
responsibilities on real estate developers and accountability towards customers and protection of their interest and
has imposed certain obligations on real estate developers, including us, such as mandatory registration of real
estate projects, not issuing any advertisements or accepting advances unless real estate projects are registered
under RERA, maintenance of a separate escrow account for amounts realised from each real estate project and
restrictions on withdrawal of amounts from such escrow accounts and taking customer approval for major changes
in sanction plan. During the period that our projects are developed, there can be changes to the national, state and
local business climate and regulatory environment, local real estate market conditions, perceptions of prospective
customers with respect to the convenience and attractiveness of the project and changes with respect to
competition from other property developments. Changes to the business environment during such time may affect
the costs and revenues associated with the project and may ultimately affect the profitability of a project. Although,
no instances have occurred in relation to any delays and cost overruns in relation to our projects in past three years
and six month period ended September 30, 2023 we have not had any material impact on our prospects, business
and results of operations however there can be no assurance that such instances will not occur in future. If any of
such changes occur during the time it takes to complete a certain project, our return on such project may be lower
than expected which could adversely affect our prospects, results of operations and financial condition. Any delays
and cost overruns could adversely affect our prospects, business and results of operations.

It may take several years following the acquisition of land or development rights before income or positive cash
flows can be generated through the sale of a completed real estate development project. Generally, the time
required to complete any real estate construction and development project is significant. The risk of owning
undeveloped land, developed land and inventories can be substantial as the market value of land and inventories
can change significantly as a result of changing economic and market conditions. There is a time gap between our
acquisition of land or development rights to the land and the development and sale of our projects, during which,
deviations if any, could have a material adverse effect due to, among other things, changes to the national, state
and local business climate and regulatory environment, local real estate market conditions, perceptions of
prospective customers with respect to the convenience and attractiveness of our properties, and changes with
respect to competition from other property developments. Since our real estate investments are relatively illiquid,
our ability to mitigate the risk of any market fluctuations is limited. We could be adversely affected if the market
conditions deteriorate or if we purchase land or inventories at higher prices during stronger economic periods and
the value of the land or the inventories subsequently declines during weaker economic periods. We cannot assure
you that real estate market cyclicality will not continue to affect the Indian real estate market in the future. As a
result, we may experience fluctuations in property values over time which in turn may adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.

18. Any variation in the utilisation of the Net Proceeds would be subject to certain compliance requirements,
including prior Shareholders’ approval.

We propose to utilize the Net Proceeds for (i) repayment or prepayment of certain outstanding borrowings availed
by our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private
Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited; (ii) acquisition of land or land development rights and (iii) general
corporate purposes. For further information of the proposed objects of the Issue, see “Objects of the Issue” on
page 130. In accordance with Section 27 of the Companies Act, 2013 and Regulation 59 of the SEBI ICDR
Regulations, we cannot undertake any variation in the utilization of the Net Proceeds without obtaining the
Shareholders’ approval through a special resolution. In the event of any such circumstances that require us to
undertake variation in the disclosed utilization of the Net Proceeds, we may not be able to obtain the Shareholders’
approval in a timely manner, or at all. Any delay or inability in obtaining such Shareholders’ approval may
adversely affect our business or operations.

The following table sets forth certain information on our Completed Projects executed through Accord Estates

With regards Iconic Property Developers Private Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited, none of our projects
have been executed as on October 31, 2023.

We intend to use approximately ₹2,850 million of the Net Proceeds to repay or prepay, in full or part, certain
loans availed by our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers
Private Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited; and (ii) ₹350.00 million for acquisition of land or land
development rights. The details of the loans identified to be repaid using the Net Proceeds have been disclosed in
the section “Objects of the Issue” on page 130. Such part of the Net Proceeds will not result in creation of any
tangible assets as they are proposed to be utilized for prepayment or repayment, in full or part, of certain loans
and working capital facilities availed by us.

Further, we may not be able to undertake variation of objects of the Issue to use any unutilized proceeds of the
Issue, if any, or vary the terms of any contract referred to in this Red Herring Prospectus, even if such variation is
in the interest of our Company. This may restrict our Company’s ability to respond to any change in our business
or financial condition by re-deploying the unutilized portion of Net Proceeds, if any, or varying the terms of
contract, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

19. Our indebtedness and the conditions and restrictions imposed by our financing agreements could adversely
affect our ability to conduct our business and operations.

As of September 30, 2023, we had total financial indebtedness of ₹ 5,688.25 million including financial
indebtedness of ₹ 835.00 million by our Subsidiary Iconic property developers Private limited and financial
indebtedness of ₹ 511.60 million by our Subsidiary Accord Estates Private Limited and financial indebtedness of
₹ 142.00 million by our Subsidiary Skyline Realty private limited and financial indebtedness of ₹ 4.20 million by
our step-down Subsidiary Uditi Premises Private Limited and financial indebtedness of ₹ 254.18 million by our
Subsidiary, New Siddharth Enterprises and financial indebtedness of ₹ 5.86 million by our Subsidiary, S R
Enterprises.. For further information, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 368. We may also incur additional
indebtedness in the future. Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and repay our outstanding borrowings
depends primarily on the cash flows generated by our business. We cannot assure you that we will generate
sufficient cash flows to service existing or proposed borrowings or fund other liquidity needs. Increasing our level
of indebtedness could have several important consequences, including but not limited to the following: a portion
of our cash flows may be used towards repayment of our existing debt and interest payments, which will reduce
the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, acquisition of land and other general corporate
requirements; our ability to obtain additional financing in the future at reasonable terms may be affected;

64
fluctuations in market interest rates may affect the cost of our borrowings, as some of our indebtedness are at
variable interest rates; we may have difficulty in satisfying payment and other obligations under our existing
financing arrangements and an inability to comply with these requirements could result in an event of default,
acceleration of our repayment obligations and enforcement of related security interests over our Land Reserves
and/ or other assets; there could be a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations if we are unable to service our indebtedness or otherwise comply with financial and other covenants
specified in the financing agreements; and we may be more vulnerable to economic downturns.

Additionally, our financing agreements contain certain restrictive covenants and events of default that limit our
ability to undertake certain types of transactions, which may adversely affect our business and financial condition.
These financing agreements also require us to maintain certain financial ratios. Certain restrictive covenants under
our financing agreements which require seeking a prior consent from the respective lenders of our Company’s
lenders include restrictions on (a) prepayment of the outstanding principal amounts of the facilities availed by our
Company; (b) any amalgamation, demerger, merger, corporate or debt restructuring; (c) any change in the
constitution, control, ownership, shareholding pattern, capital structure, profit sharing and/or management of our
Company; (d) significant change in the debt-equity ratio/current ratio of our Company; (e) undertaking any new
project or expansion of the project from funds envisaged for the project by certain lenders to our Company or
bidding for new projects by our Company; (f) amending of any constitutional documents, including the
memorandum of association and articles of association and any organizational documents or trust deed by our
Company. While neither have we defaulted on any covenants in financing agreements or reschedule repayment
of loans nor any clauses relating to the events of default in financial agreements have been invoked in the past
three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that this will continue to be the case in the future. Our Company had availed
relaxation under moratorium framework permitted by the RBI on account of COVID-19 pandemic. Further, under
the terms of certain of our financing agreements, in several cases, a charge has been created, in favour of the
lenders, over the land owned or being developed by us, in respect of the projects for which financing has been
availed along with a charge on the receivables from the respective projects. Such security may be invoked by the
lenders in the events of default under the respective financing agreements. For further information, see “Financial
Indebtedness” on page 368.

Failure to meet the conditions listed above or obtain consents from lenders, as may be required, could invoke
certain penalty clauses or any other consequence of events of default set out in the respective financing
arrangement, which could have significant consequences for our business. Compliance with the various terms of
such financing arrangements, however, is subject to interpretation and there can be no assurance that we have
requested or received all relevant consents from our lenders as contemplated under our financing arrangements in
a timely manner or at all. It may be possible for a lender to assert that we have not complied with all applicable
terms under our existing financing documents in a timely manner or at all. Any failure to comply with the
requirement to obtain a consent, or other condition or covenant under our financing agreements that is not waived
by our lenders or is not otherwise cured by us, may lead to a termination of our credit facilities, acceleration of all
amounts due under such facilities and trigger cross default provisions under certain of our other financing
agreements, and may materially and adversely affect our ability to conduct our business and operations or
implement our business plans. In relation to all lenders and their financing agreements, we have obtained consents
for this Issue.

We cannot assure you that we will have adequate funds at all times to repay these credit facilities and may also
be subject to demands for the payment of penal interest. Moreover, our ability to borrow and the terms of our
borrowings depend on our financial condition, the stability of our cash flows and our capacity to service debt in a
rising interest rate environment.

20. Sujatha R. Thomas, a member of the Promoter Group and our Non – Executive Director have interests in
our Company other than reimbursement of expenses incurred and normal remuneration or benefits.

Sujatha R. Thomas, member of the Promoter Group and our Non – Executive Director have an interest in our
Company other than reimbursement of expenses incurred and normal remuneration or benefits. She has entered
into lease deed dated July 17, 2015 with Accord Estates Private Limited, Material Subsidiary of the Company for
taking on lease four ground plus one upper floor row houses and having possessory rights with respect to land
underneath and land appurtenant thereto in Mount Mary Hill, Bandra West for lease rent of ₹ 10,000 per month.
Further, our Promoter, members of the Promoter Group and certain Directors may be deemed to be interested to
the extent of Equity Shares held by them or their relatives (or Promoter Group) as well as to the extent of bonus
on such Equity Shares. Our Company cannot assure you that our Promoter, Directors and our Key Managerial
Personnel will exercise their rights as shareholders to the benefit and best interest of our Company.

21. We have, in the past, entered into certain transactions with related parties and may continue to do so in
the future. Any related party transactions that are not on an arm’s length basis may adversely affect our
business, results of operation and financial condition.

We have, in the past, entered into certain transactions with related parties, including our Promoter and Promoter
Group and may continue to do so in the future. For further information, see “Restated Consolidated Financial
Statements” on page 305. While all such transactions have been conducted on an arms-length basis and are in
compliance with the relevant provisions of Companies Act and any other applicable laws and regulations as
amended, there can be no assurance that we would not have achieved more favourable commercial terms had such
transactions not been entered into with related parties. Further, we may enter into related party transactions in the
future, and such transactions may potentially involve conflicts of interest.

Further, except as disclosed in “Financial statements – Annexure VI – Note 42 – Related Party Disclosures” on
page 305, neither our Company nor our Subsidiaries have provided any loan or advances or given any guarantees
or any form of securities to related parties during the last three Fiscals and in the three months’ period ended June
30, 2023. Further, our Company or our Subsidiaries may not be able to recover such advances or loans from
related parties and such transaction may adversely affect our business, results of operation and financial condition.
In the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 and Fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, the aggregate amount of such
related party transactions was, ₹15.67 million, ₹(22.69) million, ₹347.49 million and ₹77.55 million, respectively.
The percentage of the aggregate value such related party transactions to our revenue from operations in the three-
month period ended June 30, 2023 and Fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021 was 1.53%, (0.74%), 12.74% and 3.23%,
respectively. In addition, the transaction value of any related party transaction in Fiscal 2021, 2022 and 2023 and
in the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 has not exceeded 10% of the total related party transactions of
similar nature.

We cannot assure you that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will always be in the best interests
of our minority Shareholders and it will not have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash
flows and financial condition.

22. We have certain contingent liabilities, which if they materialize, may adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.

As of the Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2021 and three month period ended June 30, 2023, our contingent

Company does not expect any reimbursement in respect of above. In respect of (ii) above, our Company does not
expect any cash outflow till such time contractual obligations are fulfilled for which guarantees are issued.

For further details, see “Restated Consolidated Financial Statements –Note 40.2: Contingent liabilities and
Commitments” on page 305.

If a significant portion of these liabilities materialize, it could have an adverse effect on our business, financial

66
condition and results of operations.

23. We may not be able to successfully identify and acquire suitable land or development rights, which may
affect our business and growth prospects.

Our ability to identify suitable parcels of land for development is a vital element of growing our business and
involves certain risks, including identifying land with clean title and at locations that are preferred by our target
customers. We have an internal assessment process for land selection and acquisition, which includes a due
diligence exercise to assess the title of the land and its suitability for development and marketability. Our internal
assessment process is based on information that is available or accessible to us. We cannot assure you that such
information is accurate, complete or current, and any decision based on inaccurate, incomplete or outdated
information may result in certain risks and liabilities associated with the acquisition of such land, which could
adversely affect our business and growth prospects.

We acquire parcels of land at various locations in South Central Mumbai and adjoining areas of the MMR, upon
which we can undertake development. In connection with the acquisition of land, disputes may arise between the
local government and residents as to the applicable compensation payable or residents may refuse to relocate.
Such disputes could delay the resettlement process and the land acquisition and development process. We cannot
assure you that such disputes would be resolved in a timely manner or at all. Additionally, we may be asked to
pay premium amounts for acquiring certain large parcels of land. In certain instances, the payment consideration
for land acquisition is on a deferred basis, which may be pending in certain cases. If we are unable to make the
deferred payment consideration on time, or at all, on our current land reserves or future land reserves, it may result
in disputes and ultimately affect our ability to develop such land and may also result in a failure to realize profit
on our initial investment.

In addition, due to the increased demand for land in connection with the development of residential, commercial
and retail properties, we may experience increased competition in our attempt to acquire land in the geographical
areas in which we operate and the areas in which we anticipate operating in the future. For example, the supply
of land in Mumbai and particularly in South Central Mumbai region is limited and acquisition of new land in these
and other parts of Mumbai poses substantial challenges and is highly competitive. Increased competition may
result in a shortage of suitable land that can be used for development and can increase the price of land. We may
not be able to or may decide not to acquire parcels of land due to various factors, such as the price of land.

Moreover, the availability of land, as well as its use and development, is subject to regulations by various local
authorities. Further, certain land parcels can be subject to reservations, including reservations for road widening
amongst others, and accordingly, such reserved areas will be deducted from the developable area. Further, certain
areas may fall under eco-sensitive or buffer or green zone or coastal regulation zone etc., and due to such zoning,
there may be restrictions on carrying out developmental activities in accordance with the applicable development
regulations. For more information, see “Key Regulations and Policies” beginning on page 252. We may also be
required by applicable laws or court orders to incur expenditures and undertake activities in addition to real estate
development on certain portions of our land reserves. Accordingly, our inability to acquire parcels of land or
development rights or any restrictions on use of our land or development thereof may adversely affect our business
and growth prospects.

Failure to acquire such parcels of land may cause a delay or force us to abandon or modify our development or
re-development of land that we have acquired at a certain location, which may result in a failure to realize profit
on our initial investment. Further, due to the increased demand for land in connection with the development of
residential properties, we may experience increased competition in our attempt to acquire land in the geographical
areas in which we operate. This may result in a shortage of suitable land that can be used for development or
redevelopment and can increase the price of land. We may not be able to or may decide not to acquire parcels of
land due to various factors, such as the price of land. Additionally, we may be asked to pay premium amounts for
acquiring certain large parcels of land. If we experience delay in or are unable to acquire the remaining undivided
rights from other co-owners, we may not be able to develop such land. Accordingly, our inability to acquire parcels
of land may adversely affect our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

24. There have been certain instances of delays in PF and ESIC payments by our Company and our
Subsidiaries in the past. We may be subject to regulatory actions and penalties for any such delays.

There have been certain instances of delays in PF and ESIC payments in the past by our Company and our
Subsidiaries. Details of such delays in PF and ESIC payments by our Company and our Subsidiaries and steps

We cannot assure you that, in the future, we will not be subject to any liability on account of such delays in
payment of PF or any other regulatory or statutory body in future in relation to this error. If we are subject to any
such liability, it may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

25. We have not obtained occupation certificate for 16 flats of 4 (four) of our completed projects which include
projects Ocean Star – II, Harmony, Jacob Apartments and Gloriosa Apartments. We are required to meet
the provisions of the Development Control and Promotion Regulations, 2034 (“DCPR, 2034”) as amended
from time to time, which may require us to incur additional costs and as a result may have an adverse
effect on our business.

We must obtain statutory and regulatory approvals or permits at various stages in the development of our projects.
For example, we are required to obtain requisite environmental approvals, fire safety clearances and
commencement, completion and occupation certificates from relevant Governmental authorities. Also, our
redevelopment projects depend substantially on approvals to be obtained from societies and certain Government
agencies. As of October 31, 2023, we have 42 Completed Projects and out of which for 4 (four) projects we have
not received occupation certificate to 16 flats, which include projects Ocean Star – II, Harmony, Jacob Apartments
and Gloriosa Apartments. Occupation Certificates (“OC”) for these 4 (four) projects and total 16 flats are pending

For details, please see “Our Business - Completed Projects” on page 236. We have applied for, or are in the
process of applying for, such approvals.

We may not be able to handover possession of units to our customers on time due to non receipt of completeion
certificates in buildings developed by us. Full consideration for units sold to our customers may also not be
received in time due to delay in obtaining occupation certificate from relevant Governmental authorities. Delay
in obtaining approvals from Governmental authorities may lead to imposition of penalties, claims from customers
for non-fulfilment of obligations on our part and disputes with our customers claiming damages before authorities

70
like MahaRera and consumer courts. Delay in obtaining occupation certificates and such other critical approvals
may affect our business, prospects, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

26. Information included in this Red Herring Prospectus, including the measurements with respect to the
estimated Developable Area of our projects, estimated Carpet Area of our projects and the expected launch
and completion dates of our projects, is based on assumptions and estimates which may change for various
reasons.

Some of the information contained in this Red Herring Prospectus with respect to our Completed Projects,
Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects such as the amount of land or development rights owned by us, location
and type of development, estimated Developable Area, estimated carpet area, description of amenities, our funding
requirements and intended use of Net Proceeds of the Issue by the Company are based on certain assumptions and
estimates and have not been independently appraised or verified. Further, the expected launch date of a project is
the date by which we anticipate making the first booking, sales, and the expected date of completion is the date
by which we expect to receive the occupation certificate.

Developable Area of our Completed Projects and Ongoing Projects, estimated Developable Area and carpet area
of our Upcoming Projects, and plot area of our Land Reserves have been calculated based on the current rules and
regulations which govern the construction area of the respective projects. Our Land Reserves comprise land on
which no development activity has commenced and no plan for development has been initiated but which we
intend to develop in future, subject to various factors including marketability, receipt of regulatory clearances and
development of adequate infrastructure. As of October 31, 2023, we had Land Reserves of 10,359.77 square
meters. The total area of a project that is ultimately developed and the actual Developable Area and actual carpet
area may differ from the descriptions of the project presented herein and a particular project may not be completely
booked, sold, leased or developed until a date subsequent to the expected completion date. We may also have to
revise our assumptions, estimates, development plans (including the type of proposed development) and the
estimated construction commencement and completion dates of our projects depending on future contingencies
and events, including, among others, changes in our business plans due to prevailing economic and market
conditions, and changes in laws and regulations. Further, the information we have provided in relation to our
Completed Projects, Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects are not representative of our future results.

We may also change our management plans and timelines for strategic, marketing, internal planning and other
reasons. Therefore, management’s estimates and plans with respect to our projects are subject to uncertainty. Also
see “Risk Factors – Inability to complete our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects by their respective
expected completion dates or at all could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition” on page 33.

27. Increases in prices (including for increase in taxes and levies) or shortage of or delay or disruption in
supply of, construction materials, contract labour and equipment could adversely affect our estimated
construction cost and timelines resulting in cost overruns.

Our principal construction materials include steel, cement, ready mix concrete marble & granites and flooring.
These materials are sourced from third party vendors. The prices and supply of these and other construction
materials depends on factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions, competition, production
levels, transportation costs, government taxes and levies, and import duties. Our ability to develop and construct
project profitably is dependent on our ability to obtain adequate and timely supply of construction materials within
our estimated budget. We do not have long-term agreements with our raw material suppliers and typically procure
materials on the basis of purchase orders. If our primary suppliers of construction materials curtail or discontinue
their delivery of such materials to us in the quantities we need and at reasonable prices, our ability to meet our
material requirements for our projects could be impaired, our construction schedules could be disrupted, and we
may not be able to complete our projects as per schedule. Prices of certain building materials are susceptible to
increase including for increase in government taxes and levies.

The table below sets forth details of our average price for procuring of our principal materials:

Three months period

Particulars Unit Average rate (₹ per Unit)
Steel M.T. 53,359.74 66,334.03 57,968.81 43,918.72

Flooring Sq. ft. 240.50 396.84 271.37 187.79

The table below sets forth details of our expenses incurred (amount and as a % of total revenue) towards employee
benefit expenses and labour and contract expenses:

Employee 33.34 3.26% 116.00 3.79% 97.39 3.57% 76.12 3.17%
benefit
expenses

While there has been significant increase in price of steel and flooring in preceding three years, there were no
shortage of or delay or disruption in supply of, construction materials in past three years which have had any
material impact on our business, results of operations and financial results, in case of any shortage in supply of
building materials or delay or disruption in supply of building materials, we may not be able to complete our
projects as per schedule or at estimated costs. We may also not be able to pass on any increase in the costs incurred
for procuring construction materials to our customers, and this could adversely affect our results of operations and
impact our financial condition.

We also incur expenses towards project execution that primarily includes employee and contract labour costs. The
cost and supply of employee and contract labour depend on various factors beyond our control, including general
economic conditions, competition and minimum wage rates. For instance, after the sudden announcement of the
nationwide lockdown from March 25, 2020, operations at our construction sites were brought to a complete
standstill and due to reduced economic activity, workforce deployed at our construction sites returned to their
native cities/ towns/ villages. While we subsequently resumed construction activities at all our sites, any such
unanticipated events, increases in raw material and labour costs, may impair our ability to meet construction
schedules and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

28. We have not entered into any definitive agreements to use a portion of the proceeds of the Issue and may
invest or spend the proceeds of the Issue in ways with which you may not agree.

As described in the “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page130, we intend to use a portion of the proceeds from
the Issue for the acquisition of land or land development rights. However, as on date of this Red Herring
Prospectus, we have not entered into any definitive agreements and do not have any definite and specific
commitments for such acquisitions. We may not be able to conclude such agreements or commitments on terms
anticipated by us, or at all. The amount of Net Proceeds identified for acquisitions is based solely on management
estimates and has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or any other independent agency. The
actual deployment of funds will depend on a number of factors, including the location of the parcels, whether they
are undivided etc. These are based on current conditions and are subject to change in light of changes in external
circumstances or costs or in other financial conditions, business strategy, etc. Further, we may not be able to
identify suitable parcels of land in a timely manner to be able to deploy the Net Proceeds as per the timelines
stipulated. This may entail rescheduling the proposed utilisation of the Net Proceeds and changing the allocation
of funds from our planned allocation at the discretion of our management, subject to compliance with the
Companies Act, the SEBI ICDR Regulations and SEBI Listing Regulations and other applicable laws. Further,
pursuant to Sections 13(8) and 27 of the Companies Act, any variation in the Objects of the Issue would require
a special resolution of the shareholders and the promoter or controlling shareholders will be required to provide
an exit opportunity to the shareholders who do not agree to such proposal to vary the Objects of the Issue, at such
price and in such manner in accordance with applicable law. For further details, please see “Risk Factors –We

72
may not be able to successfully identify and acquire suitable land or development rights, which may affect our
business and growth prospects.” on page 67.

Furthermore, land acquisition may also be subject to legal uncertainties and title defects, and we may not be able
to capitalize on our acquisitions or ascertain clean and marketable title in a timely manner.

29. Our Company’s ability to pay dividends in the future will depend on our Company’s earnings, financial
condition, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and restrictive covenants of our Company’s
financing arrangements.

In the past, we have not made dividend payments to the Shareholders of our Company. For further information,
see “Dividend Policy” on page 304. Our Company’s ability to pay dividends in the future will depend on a number
of factors, including but not limited to our earnings, capital requirements, contractual obligations, results of
operations, financial condition, cash requirements, business prospects and any other financing arrangements,
applicable legal restrictions and overall financial position of our Company. The declaration and payment of
dividends will be recommended by our Board of Directors and approved by the Shareholders, at their discretion,
subject to the provisions of the Articles of Association and applicable law, including the Companies Act, 2013.
Our Board may also, from time to time, declare interim dividends from the profits of the Financial Year in which
such interim dividend is sought to be declared. We may retain all future earnings, if any, for use in the operations
and expansion of the business. We cannot assure you that we will be able to pay dividends in the future.

30. Some or all of our outstanding receivables against the bookings may not be received in the future which
may adversely affect our business prospects, financial conditions and results of operations.

At the time of the booking of units in our various projects, our customers pay us a booking amount, which is
usually a small portion of the entire consideration. Upon the receipt of such booking amount, we book the unit in
favour of the customer, and the customer remains obligated to make instalment payments to satisfy payment of
the entire consideration. Sometimes customers default in making timely instalment payments. However, we retain
the right to forfeit the booking amount and cancel the registration of such a defaulting customer. Therefore, the
outstanding receivables against the booked units may or may not be received in future and we may not be able to
make a fresh sale of such units which may adversely affect our business prospects, financial conditions and result
of operations. Although, there have not been any instances of such non-receipt of outstanding receivables in past
three years, there can be no assurance that such instances will not occur in future.

The table below sets forth details of our outstanding trade receivables as of the dates indicated:
(₹ in million)
Particulars As at June 30, 2023 As of March 31,
2023 2022 2021
Trade Receivables - Unsecured, considered good 1,575.72 1,140.16 939.29 818.67

31. We are dependent on a number of key personnel, and the loss of or our inability to attract or retain such
persons could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are highly dependent on our Key Managerial Personnel or Senior Management for setting our strategic
business direction and managing our business. Our Managing Director and certain other Key Managerial
Personnel or Senior Management have extensive experience in the real estate development sector. For further
information, see “Our Management – Key Management Personnel or Senior Management” on page 296. Our
ability to meet continued success and future business challenges depends on our ability to attract, recruit and retain
experienced, talented and skilled professionals. Due to the current limited pool of skilled personnel in our industry,
competition for senior management is intense. Although the attrition rate of our employees was 6.86%, 6.86%,
5.22% and 5.22% in three months period ended June 30, 2023 and Fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively, the
loss of the services of our Key Managerial Personnel or Senior Management or our inability to recruit or train a
sufficient number of experienced personnel or our inability to manage the attrition levels in different employee
categories may have an adverse effect on our financial results and business prospects.

32. Our Net Profit and Earning per share changed substantially in preceding three years.

73
Our Net Profit and Earning per share increased substantially in preceding three years. The table below sets out
our Net Profit, borrowings and Earning per share for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 and for the
Fiscals 2023, 2022 and 2021:

Particulars Three month Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2021


period ended
June 30, 2023
Restated profit after tax 145.28 320.64 265.04 62.77
Total borrowings 5,985.00 5,930.93 6,381.57 6,004.78
Earnings per share (basic and diluted) 4.58 10.10 8.35 1.98

Our Restated profit after tax for the Fiscal 2023 was ₹ 320.64 million as compared to ₹ 265.04 million for Fiscal
2022, representing an increase of 20.98%. The increase was primarily due to improved realization from luxury
segment projects. Our Restated profit after tax for the Fiscal 2022 was ₹ 265.04 million as compared to ₹ 62.77
million for Fiscal 2021, representing an increase of 322.24%. The increase was primarily on account of
exceptionally higher realization from two luxury projects and one Value Luxury Project in Fiscal 2022 and on
account of lower stamp duty on residential real estate due to relaxation given by State Government of Maharashtra
on account of Covid-19. Due to increase in restated profit after tax during the period mentioned above our earnings
per share (basic and diluted) has increased.

Further, our total borrowing for the Fiscal 2023 was ₹ 5,930.93 million as compared to ₹ 6,381.57 million for
Fiscal 2022, representing a decrease of 7.06%, on account of improvement in cash flow due to increase in sale
resulting in repayment of long term and short-term borrowings. Further, our total borrowing for the Fiscal 2022
was ₹ 6,381.57 million as compared to ₹ 6,004.78 million for Fiscal 2021, representing an increase of 6.27%, on
account of fresh borrowing for new projects and drawdown in existing facilities in our Ongoing Projects.

We cannot assure you that our profit for year will increase in the future or that our expenses will decrease. Any
further decrease in our Net Profit for the year or increase in our expenses will have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

33. If we are unable to collect our dues and receivables from our customers in accordance to the terms and
conditions of the contracts and the payment schedules, our business, results of operations or financial
condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Our business depends on our ability to successfully obtain payment from our customers that they owe us against
the bookings.

The table below sets forth details of our debtors as of the dates indicated:

Particulars Three month period As of March 31,


ended June 30, 2023

Total 1,575.72 1,140.16 939.29 818.67

Economic conditions could also result in financial difficulties for our customers. Such conditions could cause
customers to delay payment, request modifications of their payment terms, cause us to enter into litigation for
non-payment, all of which could increase our dues and receivables from our customers. Timely collection also
depends on our ability to complete our contractual commitments. If we are unable to meet our contractual
obligations including delivery schedule, we might experience delays in the collection of, or be unable to collect,
our customer balances, and if this occurs, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be
adversely affected.

34. Our Subsidiaries are involved in certain legal proceedings, any adverse developments related to which
could adversely affect our business, reputation and cash flows.

As on date of this Red Herring Prospectus, there are outstanding legal proceedings aggregating to ₹535.90 million,
against certain of our Subsidiaries, namely Skyline Realty Private Limited, Accord Estates Private Limited and
New Siddharth Enterprises that are incidental to our business and operations. These proceedings are pending at
different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals and appellate tribunals. We cannot assure you that
these proceedings will be decided in favour of our Subsidiaries. In addition, any litigation or pre-litigation claims
against our Subsidiaries, whether or not meritorious, are time consuming, require substantial expense and may
result in the diversion of significant operational resources.

A Complaint bearing no. CC006000000302987 has been filed against New Siddharth Enterprises by residents of

For further details of legal proceedings involving our Subsidiaries, please see “Outstanding Litigation and
Material Developments” on page 427

If any new developments arise, such as a change in Indian law or rulings against our Subsidiaries by appellate
courts or tribunals, we may need to make provisions in our financial information that could increase our expenses
and current liabilities, which may become insufficient in case higher damages are provided.

35. We have reversed some of the revenue recognised in prior periods as a result of cancelled bookings for
certain of our projects and may be required to do so in the future.

We and our customers have cancelled bookings for certain of our projects in recent years. For example, we have
cancelled bookings where our customers have failed to make instalment payments. In addition, where projects are
delayed beyond the scheduled completion date, our customers may have a right to cancel their bookings. For some
of these projects, we had recognised all or a portion of the income from these bookings as revenue. Except for the
following cancellation made by our Company during the Fiscal 2021, 2022 and 2023 and three-month period
ended June 30, 2023, our Company has not faced any instances of cancellations by customers:

Project Number of cancellations As of March 31, Three month period


2021 2022 2023 ended June 30, 2023
Palette 1 1 1 1
Nirvana 2 - - -
Emmanuel - 1 1 -
Ocean Star - 1 -
Mangirish 1
Total 3 2 3 2

We have consequently been required to reverse the revenue recognised from these bookings. If an increasing
number of bookings are cancelled in respect of projects where we have recognised revenue, this could lead to a
decline in our business prospects, financial position and results of operations.

76
36. As on October 31, 2023, 3 Ongoing Projects, 7 Upcoming Projects are operated by our Subsidiaries and 6
Land Reserves are held by our Subsidiaries and for which we have pledged 100% of total issued and paid
up share capital of one of our Subsidiary Skyline Realty Private Limited to secure financing. In the event
of a default in our financing agreements, pledge may be invoked and our shareholding in Skyline Realty
Private Limited may be diluted which may have an adverse impact on the business and financial position
of the Company and/or our Subsidiaries concerned.

As on October 31, 2023, 10 Ongoing Projects, 10 Upcoming Projects are operated by our Company and 1 Land
Reserve is held by our Company, while 3 Ongoing Projects, 7 Upcoming Projects are operated by our Subsidiaries
(including one Upcoming Project which is jointly operated by our Company and our Subsidiary, Accord Estates
Private Limited) and 6 Land Reserves are held by our Subsidiaries. We regularly enter into financing arrangements
to enable purchase of land including for the projects developed by the Subsidiaries. While, as on date of this Red
Herring Prospectus, none of the Equity Shares of our Company have been pledged, however, as on date of this
Red Herring Prospectus, 20,000 fully paid up equity shares of Skyline Realty Private Limited, constituting 100%
of total issued and paid up share capital of Skyline Realty Private Limited are pledged on pari passu basis in favor
of Vistra ITCL India Limited, Debenture Trustees for securing interest of 3,000 secured, unlisted, unrated, zero
coupon, redeemable non-convertible debentures of face value of ₹1,00,000 each, of aggregate nominal value of
₹3,000,00,000 subscribed by various funds which are managed by Nippon Life India AIF Management Limited.
While there have been no instances of default in our financing agreements or invocation of pledge in the three
month period ended June 30, 2023 and Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2022, and Fiscal 2021, which has adversely impacted
our financial results, any default in such loans by the relevant Subsidiary can result in the concerned lender
exercising the rights in respect of such pledge and acquiring the shareholding of the Company in the relevant
Subsidiary. In such circumstances, our ownership in the relevant Subsidiary may be diluted. Such an event may
have an adverse impact on the business and financial position of the Company and/or our Subsidiaries concerned.

37. As on October 31, 2023, 6 Land Reserves are held by our Subsidiaries.

Our Subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and our Company is depending upon its Subsidiaries for
their land parcel. Our business will be heavily dependent upon Land Reserves of our Subsidiaries. Further, our
Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited (Projects yet to
commence), Skyline Realty Private Limited, Uditi Premises Private Limited, M/s New Siddharth Enterprises, M/s
S R Enterprises and M/s Mulani & Bhagat Associates have incurred losses in the past. Conflict that may arise
between us and our Subsidiaries in relation to Land Reserves may cause delay in completion, suspension or
complete abandonment of a project, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations. In this case, we may be required to make additional investments and/or provide additional services or
become liable or responsible for the obligations of these entities in the project, which could result in reduced
profits or, in some cases, significant losses and a diversion of our management’s attention. As on date, there are
nil projects under joint development agreements or redevelopment agreements with our Subsidiaries which are
not being pursued by the Company and/or its Subsidiaries

38. Our Subsidiaries have contributed marginally to our revenue from operations during three months’ period

There can be no assurance that our Subsidiaries will contribute meaningfully to our consolidated revenue from
operations in future periods.

39. Our Subsidiaries have incurred losses in the last three Fiscals and may do so in the future, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, cash flows and results of
operations.

Our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited, Skyline Realty
Private Limited, Uditi Premises Private Limited, M/s New Siddharth Enterprises, M/s S R Enterprises and M/s
Mulani & Bhagat Associates have incurred losses in the past. Our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates
Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited propose to utilise
an amount of ₹ 2,850.00 million from the Net Proceeds towards part or full repayment and/or pre-payment (earlier
or scheduled) of certain borrowings availed by our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private
Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited. The table below sets

2023 and Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021.

In order to continue their operations, these Subsidiaries may require continual financial support from our Company
either as debt or as equity. We may not have the ability to provide such support on a continual basis.

40. Problems pertaining to clearance of encroachment especially in case of redevelopment projects could have
a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As on October 31, 2023, out of 13 Ongoing projects and 16 Upcoming Project, we have directly acquired land for
9 Ongoing projects through conveyance deed (balance 4 ongoing project acquired by way of development
agreement with landowners) and 10 Upcoming Projects through conveyance deed (balance 6 ongoing project
acquired by way of development agreement with landowners) with the landowners. Any illegal encroachments
on the land parcels owned by us or over which we have development rights could have a material adverse effect
on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We may be required to incur additional costs and
face delays in our project development schedule in order to clear such encroachments. Disputes relating to land
title can take several years and considerable expense to resolve if they become the subject of legal proceedings
and their outcome can be uncertain. If we are unable to resolve such disputes, the title to and/ or interest in, such
land may be affected. While we have not experienced any instances of faulty or disputed title, unregistered
encumbrances or adverse possession rights in the past which has adversely impacted our financial results, an
inability to obtain good title to any plot of land may adversely affect the development of a project for which such
plot of land is critical and this may result in the write-off of expenses incurred in relation to such development.
As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

41. Our Company does not provide any construction services on its own and is 100% dependent on third party
contractors for the construction services of its Projects. Any failure on their part to perform their
obligations could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.

As part of our operations, we contract with independent construction contractors for the construction of our
projects. Our Company does not provide any construction services on its own and is 100% dependent on third
party contractors for the construction services of its Projects. Our Company selects the third party construction
contractors based on their past performance, team size and cost. We have availed construction services of ACC
India Private Limited, Aum Punit Creators LLP, Ishwar Enterprises, Mehta Jai Singh LLP, A J Constructions and
FEM Construction Private Limited. Further, none of the third party contractors are related to our Promoter,
Promoter group, Directors, KMP, Associate Company, if any, Subsidiaries or Group Companies. If a contractor
fails to perform its obligations satisfactorily or within the prescribed time periods with regard to a project or
terminates its arrangements with us, we may be unable to develop the project within the intended timeframe, at
the intended cost, or at all. If this occurs, we may be required to incur additional cost or time to develop the
property to appropriate quality standards in a manner consistent with our development objective, which could
result in reduced profits or in some cases, significant penalties and losses. Except the delay in our Ongoing Projects
due to Covid 19, there have been no instances of material default or delay by the independent construction
contractors for the construction of our projects during the Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021, which has

79
adversely impacted our financial results. Further as per notifications No. MahaRERA / Secy /Order/ 26 /2020
dated May 18, 2020 and No. MahaRERA I Secy/File No. 27 / 157 / 2021 dated August 6, 2021 issued by
Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority, the RERA dates mentioned in each of our Ongoing Projects stands
extended by a cumulative period of 12 months. Although, no instances have occurred in relation to material default
or delay by the independent construction contractors for the construction of our projects in past three years which
have had any material impact on our prospects, business and results of operations however, we cannot assure you
that the services rendered by such independent construction contractors will always be satisfactory or match our
requirements for quality. In order to control the timely completion of the projects by the independent construction
contractors within time frame, we have stationed full time site engineers, supervisors at the construction sites, as
also regular inspection by architects, various consultants, including project management consultants to review the
progress of the construction work on a continuous basis. In addition, we may be subject to claims in relation to
defaults and late payments to our contractors, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations, and
cash flows.

42. There have been certain instances of delays in filing of GST returns of the Company in the past. We may
be subject to regulatory actions and penalties for any such delays and our business, financial condition
and reputation may be adversely affected.

There have been certain instances of delays in filing of GST returns in the past by our Company. Details of such
delays in GST returns of the Company along with reasons thereof and steps taken by the Company to rectify the
delay are as follows:

Financial State Return Total number Establishments Reasons


Year Type of with delayed

The company shall take necessary steps to ensure timely collection of GST dues from its customers. However, in
the event of such delays in future there may be financial liability on the Company by way of interest payable to
the GST Authorities for such delays.”

43. Industry information included in this Red Herring Prospectus has been derived from an industry report
commissioned and paid by Company for such purpose. There can be no assurance that such third-party
statistical, financial and other industry information is either complete or accurate.

We have availed the services of an independent third party research agency, Anarock Property Consultants Private
Limited, to prepare an industry report titled “Real Estate Industry Report” dated November 24, 2023 (“Company
Commissioned Anarock Report”) commissioned and paid by us for purposes of inclusion of such information
in this Red Herring Prospectus. The Company Commissioned Anarock Report is subject to various limitations
and based upon certain assumptions that are subjective in nature including that the Company Commissioned
Anarock Report is not based on comprehensive market research of the overall market for all possible situations,
and that changes in socio-economic and political conditions could result in a substantially different situation than
those presented. Although we believe that the data may be considered to be reliable, the accuracy, completeness
and underlying assumptions are not guaranteed and dependability cannot be assured. Due to possibly flawed or
ineffective collection methods or discrepancies between published information and market practice and other
problems, the statistics herein may be inaccurate or may not be comparable to statistics produced for other
economies/peer companies and should not be unduly relied upon. Further, there is no assurance that they are stated
or compiled on the same basis or with the same degree of accuracy as may be the case elsewhere. Statements from
third parties that involve estimates are subject to change, and actual amounts may differ materially from those
included in this Red Herring Prospectus. Further, there is no conflict of interest, directly or indirectly, between
our Company and Anarock Property Consultants Private Limited.

44. We have applied for registrations of certain intellectual property rights and any failure to enforce our
rights could have an adverse effect on our business prospects.

Our trademark is significant to our business and operations. We have applied for trademark of our logo
appearing on the cover page of this Red Herring Prospectus through application no 4890467 under class 37 on
March 4, 2021 and the same is objected by concerned department. The objection is raised by the Registrar of
Trade Marks under section 11 (1) of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, as the mark is identical with or similar to earlier
marks in respect of identical or similar description of services and because of such identity or similarity there
exists a likelihood of confusion on the part of the public. For further information, see “Government and Other
Approvals” on page 435. Our ability to enforce our trademark and other intellectual property is subject to general
litigation risks and an action for passing-off may not sufficiently protect our trademarks or trade names and other
intellectual property rights. If we are unable to register our trademark for various reasons including our inability
to remove objections to our trademark application, or if any of our unregistered trademarks are registered in favour
of or used by a third party, we may not be able to claim registered ownership of such trademarks and consequently,
we may not be able to seek remedies for infringement of those trademarks by third parties other than relief against
passing off by other entities, causing damage to our business prospects, reputation and goodwill. Further, we may
not have adequate mechanisms in place to protect our confidential information. While we do take precautions to
protect confidential information against breach of trust by employees, consultants, customers and suppliers, it is
possible that unauthorized disclosure of confidential information may occur.

In addition, we may become subject to claims by third parties if we use slogans, names, designs, software or other
such subjects in breach of any intellectual property rights registered by such third party. Any legal proceedings
pursuant to such claims, or settlements thereunder, may divert management attention and require us to pay
financial compensation to such third parties, as well as compel us to change our marketing strategies or brand
names of our products and services, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operation and
financial condition.

45. Our Registered and Corporate Office are on leave and license basis. Failure to comply with the conditions

81
of the use of such property could result in an adverse impact on our business and operations. Further there
can be no assurances that these leave and license agreements will be renewed upon termination or that we
will be able to obtain other premises on lease on same or similar commercial terms.

Our Registered and Corporate Office situated at 301, 3rd Floor, Aman Chambers, Veer Savarkar Marg, Opp.
Bengal Chemicals, Prabhadevi, Mumbai 400025, Maharashtra, India is on leave and license basis. Set forth below
are details of our properties on leave and license basis:

Further, none of our Company, its Director, Promoter or Promoter Group or Subsidiaries are connected with the
Lessor.

We may not be able to successfully extend or renew such leave and license agreement upon expiration of the
current term on commercially reasonable terms or at all, and may therefore be forced to relocate our affected
operations. This could disrupt our operations and result in relocation expenses, which could adversely affect our
business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, we may not be able to locate
desirable alternative sites for our operations as our business continues to grow or our leases near their end, and
failure in relocating our affected operations could adversely affect our business and operations. However, there
have been no instances of material breach of terms and conditions of leave and incense agreement or disputes
during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2022, and Fiscal 2021, which has
adversely impacted our financial results.

Further there are risks associated with the disputes of the property that may also lead to business disruptions. Even
where we can extend or renew our leases, our rental payments may increase because of the high demand for the
leased properties. Further, in certain case where we must commit to lock-in periods our ability to exit the property
may be limited. Further, any unanticipated or steep increase in the regulatory costs on account of stamp duty,
municipal taxes or any other local duties, taxes, levies may adversely impact our ability to sustain or expand retail
stores marketplace or warehouses in an affordable manner.

46. Pursuant to listing of the Equity shares, we may be subject to pre-emptive surveillance measures like
additional Surveillance Measures (“ASM”) and Graded Surveillance Measures (“GSM”) by the Stock
Exchanges in the order to enhance market integrity and safeguard the interest of the investors.

On and post the listing of equity shares, we may be subject to ASM and GSM by the Stock Exchange(s) and the
Securities and Exchange Board of India. These measures have been introduced in order to enhance market
integrity, and safeguard the interest of investors and to alert and advise investors to be extra cautious and carry
out necessary due diligence while dealing in such securities.

The criteria for shortlisting any scrip trading on the Stock Exchange(s) under the ASM is based on some objective
criteria as jointly decided by SEBI and the Stock Exchanges(s) which include market based dynamic parameters
such as high low variations, client concentration, close to close price variation, market capitalization, volume
variation, delivery percentage, number of unique PAN’s and price to equity ratio. A scrip is typically subjected
GSM measures where there is an abnormal price rise that is not commensurate with the financial heath and

82
fundamentals of a company which inter alia includes factors like earnings, book value, fixed assets and net worth
to the equity ratio etc. The price of our equity shares may also fluctuate after the offer due to several factors such
as volatility in the Indian and global securities market, our profitability and performance, the performance of our
competitors, change in the estimates of our performance or any other political or economic factor. The occurrence
of any of the above-mentioned factors may trigger the parameters identified by SEBI and the Stock Exchange(s)
for the placing securities under the GSM and ASM framework. In the event of our Equity Shares are covered
under such Pre-emptive surveillance measures implemented by SEBI and the Stock Exchange(s), we may be
subject to certain additional restrictions in the relation to trading of our Equity Shares such as limiting trading
frequency (for example trading either allowed in a week or a month) higher margin requirements of settlement on
a trade for trade basis without netting off requirement of settlement on gross basis or freezing price on upper side
of trading which may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Equity Shares or may in general cause
disruptions in the development of an active market for and trading and liquidity of our Equity Shares and on the
reputation and conditions of our Company

47. Our development projects may require additional FSI (TDRs) which may not be available or may not be
available at the expected price.

Our development projects like housing society redevelopment or acquired land parcels have inherent FSI as per
the DCP Regulations. Municipal planning and land use regulations limit the maximum square footage of
completed buildings we may construct on plots to specified amounts, calculated based on a ratio of the combined
gross floor area of all floors, except areas specifically exempted, to the total area of each plot of land (the floor
space index, or “FSI”). TDRs granted by the relevant statutory authority provide a mechanism by which a person,
who is unable to use the available FSI of his/ her plot for various reasons, is permitted to use the unused FSI on
other properties in accordance with applicable regulations or transfer the unused FSI to a third party. This TDRs
is available with third parties for a price determined by demand and supply factors. In the three-month period
ended on June 30, 2023 and Fiscals 2023, 2022 and 2021, we have acquired nil, ₹19.40 million, ₹15.80 million
and nil TDRs, respectively for our Projects. We may be required to acquire TDRs to develop project as per our
development plans. If we are unable to acquire TDRs due to non-availability or if the market price of the available
TDRs is high or unviable, then this may impact our ability to increase the size of certain projects due to us having
insufficient FSI or because of a significant increase in the cost of acquisition of TDRs. Our inability to acquire
TDRs may affect our ability to increase the size and scope of our projects which may lead to lower revenues from
such projects and our financial condition and results of operations in general.

48. We may suffer uninsured losses or experience losses exceeding our insurance limits, which may have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We maintain insurance coverage that we believe is in accordance with industry standard. Our insurance cover as
of September 30, 2023 for project insurance as part of the standard fire and special perils insurance policy, vehicle
insurance policy, plant and machinery insurance policy and contractor all risk insurance policy was ₹ 3,520.74
million and work-in-progress including land cost, vehicle and plant and machinery cost was ₹ 6,800.37 million as
of September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, our project insurance cover as a percentage of work-in-progress
including land cost was 51.77%. We have not experienced any instances of where claims have exceeded insurance
cover for Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2022 or Fiscal 2021. Our real estate projects could suffer physical damage from fire
or other causes, resulting in losses which may not be fully covered by our insurance policies. In addition, there
are certain types of losses, such as those due to earthquakes, floods, other natural disasters, terrorism or acts of
war, which may not be insurable at a reasonable premium. We may also be subject to claims resulting from defects
in our projects. The proceeds of any insurance claim with respect to insurance that either we or our contractors
have taken may be insufficient to cover any expenses faced by us including higher rebuilding costs as a result of
inflation, changes in building regulations, environmental issues as well as other factors. Should an uninsured loss
or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we may lose the capital invested in and the anticipated revenue from
the affected property. We could also remain liable for any debt or other financial obligation related to that property.
We cannot assure you that losses in excess of insurance proceeds will not occur in the future. In addition, any
payments we make to cover any uninsured loss may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. If we suffer any losses, damages and liabilities in the course of our operations
and real estate development, we may not have sufficient insurance or funds to cover any such losses.

49. There are certain outstanding litigation proceedings involving our Company, Subsidiaries, Directors and
Promoter. Any adverse outcome in such proceedings may have a material adverse impact on our
reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

83
There are outstanding legal proceedings involving our Company, Subsidiaries, Directors and Promoter which are
pending at varying levels of adjudication at different fora. Such proceedings could divert management time and
attention and consume financial resources in their defence or prosecution. The amounts claimed in these
proceedings have been disclosed to the extent ascertainable and quantifiable and include amounts claimed jointly
and severally from our Company, Promoter, our Directors and our Subsidiaries. The summary of outstanding
matters set out below includes details of outstanding criminal proceedings, tax proceedings, statutory and
regulatory actions and other material pending litigation involving our Company, Subsidiaries, Directors, Promoter
and Group Companies.

Note:
Outcome of certain material civil cases, wherein our Company or our Subsidiaries are not directly involved, could
have a material adverse impact on our Company and our Subsidiaries.

Any unfavourable decision in connection with such proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, could adversely
affect our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

50. Our Promoter, certain members of the Promoter Group and Directors and related entities have interests
in number of ventures, which are in businesses similar to ours and this may result in potential conflicts of
interest with us.

A conflict of interest may occur between our business and the business of ventures in which our Promoter, certain

84
members of the Promoter Group, our Directors and related entities are involved with, which could have an adverse
effect on our operations. Conflicts of interest may also arise out of common business objectives shared by us, our
Promoter, certain members of our Promoter Group Directors and related entities. Our Promoter, members of the
Promoter Group, our Directors and related entities may compete with us and have no obligation to direct any
opportunities to us. For example, certain of our Group Companies and Subsidiaries are engaged in businesses
similar to ours. We cannot assure you that these or other conflicts of interest will be resolved in an impartial
manner. For further information on Group Companies and Subsidiaries, see “Our Group Companies” and “Our
Subsidiaries” on page 302 and 270.

51. Our Promoter and certain members of Promoter Group and Directors hold Equity Shares in our Company
and are therefore interested in the Company’s performance in addition to their normal remuneration and
reimbursement of expenses.

Our Promoter and certain members of our Promoter Group and Directors are interested in our Company, in
addition to normal remuneration or benefits and reimbursement of expenses, to the extent of their shareholding or
their relatives’ holding in our Company. Further, other than as disclosed in “Related Party Transactions”, “Our
Management” and “Our Promoter and Promoter Group” on page 423, 279 and 298, there are no other transactions
entered into by our Company with our Promoter, Promoter Group, Directors, Key Management Personnel or
Senior Management. While we believe that all such transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis,
we cannot assure you that we might have obtained more favourable terms had such transactions been entered into
with unrelated parties. For further information on the interest of our Directors, Promoter and Key Management
Personnel or Senior Management, other than reimbursement of expenses incurred or normal remuneration or
benefits, see “Our Management – Interest of Directors”, “Our Promoter and Promoter Group - Interest of
Promoter” and “Our Management-Interest of our Key Management Personnel or Senior Management” on pages
285, 298and 296, respectively.

52. We will continue to be controlled by our Promoter and certain members of our Promoter Group after the
completion of the Issue.

As of the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, our Promoter and certain members of our Promoter Group hold the
entire issued, subscribed and paid-up Equity Share capital of our Company. Upon completion of the Issue, our
Promoter and certain members of the Promoter Group together will hold more than [●]% of our equity share
capital, which will allow them to continue to control the outcome of matters submitted to our Board or
Shareholders for approval. After this Issue, our Promoter will continue to exercise significant control or exert
significant influence over our business and major policy decisions, including but not limited to control the
composition of our Board, delay, defer or cause a change of our control or a change in our capital structure, delay,
defer or cause a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us.

The interests of our Promoter and certain members of the Promoter Group may conflict with your interests and
the interests of our other shareholders, and our Promoter and certain members of the Promoter Group could make
decisions that may adversely affect our business operations, and hence the value of your investment in the Equity
Shares.

53. We are subject to risks in relation to sales made prior to completion of our projects, and an inability to pre-
sell may adversely affect recovery of our capital outlay.

We finance our residential projects through pre-sales prior to completion, in line with industry practice, and also
finance our developments through progressive payment plans based on the proportion of construction completed.
Proceeds from the pre-sale of our projects are an important source of financing for development of our projects.
In the event of a failure, or delay beyond the contractually specified period, in the delivery of our pre-sold projects
to purchasers, we would be required to refund all proceeds received in connection with pre-sales of or progressive
payment plan for such project and we may be liable for potential losses that purchasers may suffer as a result. Our
financial resources may be limited in making the requisite refunds in time if at all. Any restriction on our ability
to pre-sell our projects would extend the time period required for the recovery of our capital outlay and would
result in the need to seek alternative means to finance the various stages of the development of our projects. No
instances of delay have occurred in relation to pre-sell of our projects in past three years which have had any
material impact on our prospects, business and results of operations however, there is no assurance that we will
not experience significant delays in completion or delivery of a project. This, in turn, could adversely affect our
business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

54. Our business involves development and redevelopment of residential projects. The success of our business
is therefore dependent on our ability to anticipate and respond to consumer preferences and requirements.

We have in the past and continue to be engaged in the development and redevelopment of residential real estate
projects for customers in the Value Luxury and Luxury segments, in the South-Central Mumbai real estate
markets. As part of our growth strategy, we intend to consolidate our position in the Value Luxury (1 BHK flats
and compact 2 BHK flats, catering to aspirational buyers and provide value for money residential projects, in
premium locations) and Luxury Segments (2 BHK flats, 3 BHK flats and 4 BHK flats, catering to ultra-high net
worth and high net worth individual buyers in the South Central Mumbai region) and enhance strong market
position in South Central Mumbai. As of October 31, 2023, all of our Completed Projects, Ongoing Projects and
Upcoming Projects are in the residential real estate space and in commercial space. Change in consumer lifestyle
and aspirations is driving demand for value luxury and luxury residential apartments. As customers continue to
seek better housing amenities as part of their residential needs, we continue to focus on development of residential
projects with various amenities. An inability to provide customers with quality construction or to anticipate and
respond to customer preferences and requirements may affect our business and prospects. In addition, as we focus
on residential projects, with limited exposure to commercial and retail projects, any changes in the market for
residential real estate, including a change in the home loans market or governmental regulations making home
loans less attractive to our customers, may materially and adversely affect our business, growth prospects and
financial performance.

55. The Income Tax Department has conducted a “search, survey and seizure operation” at our Registered
and Corporate Office and Office of our Subsidiary, Accord Estates Private Limited. Any adverse outcome
of such proceedings may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and result of
operations.

The Income Tax Department (“ITD”) conducted a “search, survey and seizure operation” pursuant to
authorizations issued under Sections132 and 133A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 at our Registered and Corporate
Office and Office of our Subsidiary, Accord Estates Private Limited beginning from October 6, 2023 to October
11, 2023. During such searches, amongst others, the following were found (i) cash; and (ii) certain documents and
hardware copies (that were seized by the authorized officers of the ITD). As on the date, no adverse order has
been passed against our Company, its Subsidiary, Directors or Key Managerial Personnel. However, any adverse
outcome of such proceedings may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and result of
operations.

56. Work stoppages, shortage of labour and other labour problems could adversely affect our business.
Further, our operations are dependent on contract labour and an inability to access adequate contract
labour at reasonable costs at our project sites may adversely affect our business prospects and results of
operations.

We operate in a labour-intensive industry and hire contract labour is hired by our civil construction contractors
for our projects. If the relationships of the independent contractors and their personnel deteriorate, we may
experience labour unrest, strikes or other labour action and work stoppages.

We depend on third party contractors for the provision of various services associated with our business. Such
third-party contractors and their employees/ workmen may also be subject to similar labour legislations. Although
we do not engage these labourers directly, we may be held responsible for any wage payments to be made to such
labourers in the event of default by such third-party contractors to pay the labourers’ wage payments. Any
requirement to fund their wage requirements may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial
condition. In addition, under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, notified and enforced by
the Central Government and adopted with such modifications as may be deemed necessary by respective State
Governments, we may be required to absorb a number of such contract labourers as permanent employees. While
there have been no instances of non-compliance by contractors with statutory requirements, labour unrest, strikes
or other labour action and work stoppages in our Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects in the past three Fiscals,
which has adversely impacted our financial results, any non-compliance by contractors with statutory
requirements, legal proceedings may also be initiated against us. These factors could adversely affect our business,
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

57. We may be subject to third-party indemnification or liability claims, which may adversely affect our
business, cash flows, results of operations and reputation.

86
Some of the agreements such as agreement for sale entered with the flat purchaser that we have entered into with
third parties place indemnity obligations on us that require us to compensate such third parties for loss or damage
suffered by them on account of a default or breach by us. In the event that such third parties successfully invoke
these indemnity clauses under their respective agreements, we may be liable to compensate them for loss or
damage suffered in respect of such agreements, which may adversely affect our financial condition. We may be
subject to claims resulting from defects in our developments, including claims brought under the RERA and the
Maharashtra Ownership of Flats (Regulation of the Promotion of Construction, Sale, Management and Transfer)
Act, 1963 (the “Ownership of Flats Act”). See “Key Regulations and Policies” beginning on page 252. For details
concerning litigation involving claims from defaults involving our developments, see “Outstanding Litigation and
Material Development” beginning on page 427 . We may also be exposed to third-party liability claims for injury
or damage sustained on our properties.

For instance, (1) a Complaint bearing no. SC10002661 has been filed against our Company and its Directors by
Vincent Dsouza before the MahaRERA in relation to units forming part of the Diomizia Apartments CHS LTD
project. Our Company has been served with a notice for appearance dated March 28,2023 directing our Company
and its Directors to appear before the MahaRERA Tribunal.

(2)Further, a writ petition no. 1638 of 2016 was filed by Our Lady of Vailankanni and Perpetual Succour Co-
Operative Housing Society Limited and Others (collectively, “Petitioners”) against our Company, Rajan
Meenathakonil Thomas (“Our Promoter”), Sujatha R. Thomas (“Our Non-Executive Director”) and Others
(collectively, “Respondents”) before the Bombay High Court for challenging the No Objection Certificate no.
R/NOC/F-64SI3301/MBRRB dated June 25, 2012 issued by the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development
Authority (“MHADA”) and Mumbai Building Repairs and Reconstruction Board (“MBRRB”) to our Company.
MHADA and MBRRB have issued a No Objection Certificate to our Company on January 1, 2008 (“NOC”)
whereby our Company was granted an FSI of 2.5 and which was increased to FSI of 3 vide a letter dated June 25,
2012 for the property situated at plot of land bearing Final Plot No. 557 of Town Planning Scheme No. III, Mahim
C.T.S. No. 1208, 1208/1 at Mahim (“Suit Property”).

For further details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Other Material Developments” on page 427.

Except as disclosed above, we have not received any claims resulting from defects in our developments, including
claims brought under the RERA and the Ownership of Flats Act during the six-month period ended September
30, 2023 and Fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, any of future liabilities and costs under the RERA and the Ownership
of Flats Act could have an adverse effect on our business, cash flows, results of operations and reputation. In the
past, we have sold inventory in our projects through bulk sale transactions.

58. Redevelopment projects are subject to certain risks involving existing tenants and applicable Government
regulations.

As of October 31, 2023, out of our 13 Ongoing Projects, and 16 Upcoming Projects, 12 of our Ongoing Projects
and 13 of our Upcoming Projects are redevelopment projects. Under the redevelopment agreements entered into
by us with various housing societies or public charitable trusts, we have paid certain amounts as refundable
deposits or non-refundable advance compensation. We have also agreed to compensate the members of the
housing societies for the inconvenience they suffer during the course of development and construction. As we
have committed to a time frame within which we are required to hand over the completed units to the housing
societies, we may be liable to pay a penalty from the date of expiry of the stated period until the date we offer
possession of the units, apart from the additional rent payable for the alternate premises during such period of
delay. Our ability to pursue such redevelopment projects is contingent on the occupants providing us with peaceful
vacant possession of the property. Further, these projects require, among other things, obtaining consent from a
majority of the occupants and consensus between various groups of occupants as well as their approval for project
plans. Under the Development Control Rules, 1991, as amended, a new building may be permitted to be
constructed in pursuance of an irrevocable written consent by not less than 51 percent of tenants of the old
building. Although, we have obtained consent from more than 51% of tenants of the old buildings for our 13
Ongoing Projects and for our 16 Upcoming Projects, however, we cannot assure you that we will not face any
delays or be able to obtain the requisite consents from the occupants in our future projects.

Further, we may be required to first develop the rehabilitee building or portion of the project for tenants and
handover possession to them before developing the saleable portion for our customers. This leads to a significant
outflow of funds for approvals and development of the rehabilitee portion of the building before we begin
development and sales of the saleable portion of the project to our customers. We are also subject to the risk of

87
litigation in such projects, primarily from one or more disgruntled occupants. Any delay in the construction or
prolonged construction period or objections from existing occupants may result in delays and may lead to
increased costs and adversely affect our profitability.

Additionally, the security deposit made by us may be forfeited in the event we fail to honour our commitments or
obligations under the redevelopment agreements. We are also required to provide a bank guarantee for the
completion of the project in accordance with the redevelopment agreement. In the event we fail to offer possession
of the units within the time period stipulated under the agreement, these housing societies would be entitled to
terminate the agreement and invoke the bank guarantee and all the amounts paid by us under the agreement may
stand forfeited. We have also agreed to allot units within specified areas in the newly constructed buildings to the
members of the housing societies. Such allotment is irrespective of the final FSI that may be available for the
project in accordance with the Development Control Rules, 1999 and the MMRDA Act, 1974. If the law in this
regard is amended or altered, our profits from such projects will also be affected as a result.

Further, these projects require, among other things, obtaining consent from the tenants, consensus between various
groups of tenants, providing accommodation to the tenants during the interim period of obtaining consents,
demolition and construction. Delay in any of these activities may have adverse financial implications. Any delay
in the construction or prolonged construction period will lead to increased costs and will affect our profitability.
Moreover, our ability to obtain suitable sites for our redevelopment projects in and around the MMR in the future,
and our cost to acquire land development rights over such sites, could be adversely affected by any changes to the
applicable Governmental regulations. If the current redevelopment scheme in effect in and around the MMR were
to significantly change or be terminated, it may have an adverse effect on our business.

59. Our business and growth plan could be adversely affected by the incidence and change in the rate of
property taxes and stamp duties.

As a real estate development company, we are subject to the property tax in the region we operate. We are also
subject to stamp duty for the agreement entered into in respect of the properties we buy and sell. These taxes could
increase in the future, and new types of property taxes and stamp duties may be introduced which will increase
our overall costs. If these property taxes and stamp duties increase, the cost of buying, selling and owning
properties may rise. Additionally, if stamp duties were to be levied on instruments evidencing transactions that
we believe are currently not subject to such duties, our acquisition costs and sale values may be affected, resulting
in a reduction of our profitability. Any such changes in the incidence or rates of property taxes or stamp duties
could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and the results of operations.

60. Our bids may not always be accepted for housing society redevelopment projects. We may not be able to
qualify for, compete and win for redevelopment projects, which could adversely affect our business and
results of operations.

One of our strategies is to venture into the redevelopment of co-operative housing societies. We intend to
participate in the bidding process for the tenders issued by such housing societies for redevelopment projects
under the provisions of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960. Redevelopment projects are awarded
following competitive bidding processes and satisfaction of prescribed qualification criteria as set-out by the
housing society. While service quality and performance, health and safety records and personnel, as well as
reputation and experience and sufficiency of financial resources are important considerations in authority
decisions, there can be no assurance that we would be able to meet such qualification criteria, particularly for such
redevelopment projects. We cannot assure you that our bids for such redevelopment projects, when submitted,
would be accepted. In addition, such housing societies conducting tender processes may change qualification
criteria, leading to unexpected delays and uncertainties. We may not be successful in these bids and may lose out
on such housing society redevelopment projects. There can be no assurance that redevelopment projects for which
we bid will be tendered within a reasonable time, or at all. We will be required to compete with other developers
for housing societies redevelopment projects where tenders are issued by co-operative societies seeking bids from
developers. In the event that redevelopment projects which we plan to bid for are not put up for tender within the
announced timeframe, or qualification criteria are modified such that we are unable to qualify, our business,
prospects, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

61. Sales of our projects may be adversely affected by the ability of our prospective customers to purchase
property which is dependent on availability of financing to potential customers.

88
Lower interest rates on housing finance from Indian banks and housing finance companies, particularly for
residential real estate, combined with the favourable tax treatment of loans facilitate growth of the Indian real
estate market. Any changes in the tax treatment with respect to the repayment of principal on housing loans and
interest paid on housing loans is likely to affect demand for residential real estate. There are various tax benefits
under the Income Tax Act which are available to purchasers of residential premises who utilize loans from banks
or financial institutions. This could adversely affect the ability or willingness of our potential customers to
purchase residential apartments. Further, adverse changes in interest rates affect the ability and willingness of
prospective real estate customers, particularly customers of residential properties, to obtain financing for the
purchase of our projects. A decision by the Reserve Bank of India to increase the repo rate could impose an
inflation risk as the interest rates charged by banks on home loans from our prospective customers have in the
past, and may continue to, be increased. Interest rates at which our customers may borrow funds for the purchase
of our properties affects the affordability of our real estate projects. Any changes in the home loans market, making
home loans less attractive to our customers may adversely affect our business, future growth and results of
operations.

62. Failure to successfully implement our business strategies and our development plans may materially and
adversely affect our business prospects, financial conditions and results of operations.

We are embarking on a growth strategy which involves an expansion of our current business. We are currently
focused on developing residential real estate projects in the certain micro-markets within the South Central
Mumbai for the value luxury and luxury residential segments. While we intend to continue to focus on this
segment, we propose to expand our operations into other micro-markets within the South Central Mumbai and
adjoining areas. Further, we intend to leverage our experience in the real estate industry to capitalize on emerging
industry opportunities. Pursuing these strategies may place significant demands on our management as well as
our financial resources and accounting and operating systems. Even if we have successfully executed our business
strategies in the past, we cannot assure you that we will be able to execute our strategies on time and within the
estimated budget, or that we will meet the expectations of targeted customers. Our failure to execute our growth
strategy may result in our inability to maintain prior rates of growth.

Further, as we expand our operations, we may be unable to manage our business efficiently, which could result in
delays, increased costs and affect the quality of our projects, and may adversely affect our reputation. Such
expansion also increases the challenges involved in preserving a uniform culture, set of values and work
environment across our business operations, developing and improving our internal administrative infrastructure,
particularly our financial, operational, communications, internal control and other internal systems, recruiting,
training and retaining management, technical and marketing personnel, maintaining high levels of customer
satisfaction, and adhering to health, safety, and environmental standards. Our failure to manage our growth could
have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Each of the elements of new project initiatives that we develop to grow our business carries significant risks, as
well as the possibility of unexpected consequences, including acceptance by and sales of the new project initiatives
to our customers may not be as high as we anticipate; our marketing strategies for the new projects may be less
effective than planned and may fail to effectively reach the targeted consumer base or engender the desired
consumption; we may incur costs exceeding our expectations as a result of the continued development and launch
of the new projects; we may experience a decrease in sales of certain of our existing projects as a result of the
introduction of new projects nearby; and any delays or other difficulties impacting our ability, or the ability of our
third party contractors and developers, to develop and construct projects in a timely manner in connection with
launching the new project initiatives.

In the event of failure on our part to successfully implement our business strategies and our development plans
for any of the foregoing reasons, our business and financial condition could be adversely affected.

63. We rely on various contractors or third parties in developing all our projects, and factors affecting the
performance of their obligations could adversely affect our projects.

All of our projects require the services of contractors and various other parties including architects, engineers,
consultants and suppliers of labour and materials for our projects. The timing and quality of construction of the
projects that we develop depends on the availability and skill of these parties, as well as contingencies affecting
them, including labour and construction material shortages and industrial action such as strikes and lockouts. We
may not be able to identify appropriately experienced third parties and cannot assure you that skilled third parties
will continue to be available at reasonable rates and in the areas in which we undertake our projects, or at all. As

89
a result, we may be required to make additional investments or provide additional services to ensure the adequate
performance and delivery of contracted services and any delay in project execution could adversely affect our
profitability. Additionally, we rely on suppliers and do not have direct control over the quality of the products
they supply, which may adversely affect the construction quality of our developments. In addition, if such
contractors or third parties do not complete our orders in a timely manner or match our requirements on quality,
our reputation and financial condition could be adversely affected. Further, any defects in construction of our
projects may expose us to the risk of claims for damages.

64. Non-compliance with, and changes in, safety, health and environmental laws could adversely affect our
projects.

We are subject to a broad range of safety, health and environmental laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate
in the ordinary course of our business, including on controls on noise emissions, air and water discharges, on the
storage, handling, discharge and disposal of chemicals, employee exposure to hazardous substances and other
aspects of our operations. Under these laws, owners and operators of property may be liable for the costs of
removal or remediation of certain hazardous substances or other regulated materials on or in such property.

Although we believe that our projects are generally in compliance with such safety, health and environmental
laws, statutory authorities may allege non-compliance and no instances have occurred in relation to non -
compliance with such safety, health and environmental laws in past three years which have had any material
impact on our prospects, business and results of operations, we cannot assure you that we will not be subjected to
any such regulatory action in the future, including penalties and other civil or criminal proceedings. Further,
though we have been able to obtain the necessary approvals in the past, we cannot assure you that we will be able
to obtain approvals in relation to our new projects, at such times or in such form as we may require, or at all.

These laws and regulations and their resulting obligations, under which we and our sub-contractors operate, may
result in delays in construction and development, cause us to incur substantial compliance and other related costs
and prohibit or severely restrict our real estate and construction businesses. If we are unable to continue to deliver
products as a result of these restrictions, or if our compliance costs increase substantially, our revenues and
earnings may be reduced, which may adversely affect our results of operations, business and financial condition.

65. In the event that we are unable to acquire lands for which we have entered into agreements for purchase
or similar arrangements, or such agreements are held to be invalid or expire, we may not be able to acquire
the land and may also lose advances paid towards acquisition of such lands.

As part of our land acquisition process, we enter into agreements for purchase or similar arrangements with third
parties prior to the transfer or conveyance of title to parcels of land to ensure that the sellers of the land satisfy
certain conditions within the stipulated time frame specified under these agreements. For instance, the owners of
the land may be required to provide to us all of the original deeds and documents in relation to the land. Upon
entering into such arrangements, we are required to pay these landowners certain advances towards the purchase
of the lands. These arrangements also provide that the lands must be conveyed in our favour within a prescribed
period of time. In the event that we are not able to acquire the lands covered by these arrangements, we may not
be able to recover all, or part of the advance monies related to these lands. Further, in the event that these
arrangements are either invalid or have expired, we may lose the right to acquire these lands and also may not be
able to recover the advances made in relation to the land. Also, any indecisiveness or delay on our part to perform
our obligations under these arrangements may jeopardize our ability to acquire these lands before these agreements
expire. Additionally, any failure to renew any of these arrangements on similar terms or recover the advanced
monies from the relevant counterparties following the expiration of the initial term of such agreement could
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We cannot assure you that such lands will be conveyed to us, that we will be successful in acquiring them or that
we will be successful in registering them in our name or the name of one of our Subsidiaries.

66. We rely on our information technology systems for our operations and its reliability and functionality is
critical to the success of our business.

We rely on our information technology systems for our operations and its reliability and functionality is critical
to our business success. Our growing dependence on the IT infrastructure, applications, and data has caused us to
have a vested interest in its reliability and functionality, which can be affected by a number of factors, including,
the increasing complexity of the IT systems, frequent change and short life span due to technological

90
advancements and data security. We have fully implemented the Far Vision application across the various business
functions in our Company to integrate systems among our departments, including engineering and accounting,
and are also in the process of implementing a customer relationship management software. If our IT systems
malfunction or experience extended periods of down time, we may not be able to run our operations safely or
efficiently. We may suffer losses in revenue, reputation and volume of business and our financial condition and
results of operation may be materially and adversely affected. So far, we have not experienced any material
widespread disruptions of service to our clients, but there can be no assurance that we may not encounter
disruptions in the future.

Our information technology systems may be vulnerable to computer viruses, privacy, hacking or similar disruptive
problems. Computer viruses or problems caused by third parties could lead to disruptions in our ability to maintain
a track record and analyse the work in progress, cause loss of data and disruption in operations, including an
ability to assess the progress of the projects, process financial information or manage creditors/debtors or engage
in normal business activities. Moreover, we may not operate an adequate disaster recovery system. Fixing such
problems caused by computer viruses or security breaches may require interruptions or delays, which could
adversely affect our operations. Breaches of our information technology systems may result in unauthorized
access to confidential information. Such breaches of our information technology systems may require us to incur
further expenditure to put in place advanced security systems to prevent any unauthorized access to our networks.

67. Changes in technology may affect our business by making our construction and development capabilities
less competitive or obsolete.

Our future success will depend in part on our ability to respond to technological advances and emerging industry
standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis. The development and implementation of such
technology entails technical and business risks. While we have invested in, and are involved with, a number of
technology and development initiatives, several technical aspects of these initiatives are still unproven and the
eventual commercial outcomes cannot be assessed with any certainty. Even if we are successful with these
initiatives, we may not be able to deploy them in a timely fashion. Accordingly, the costs and benefits from our
investments in new technologies and the consequent effects on our financial results may vary from present
expectations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully implement new technologies or adapt our
systems to emerging industry standards. Changes in technology may require us to make additional capital
expenditures to upgrade our capabilities. If we are unable, for technical, financial or other reasons, to adapt in a
timely manner to changing market conditions, customer requirements or technological changes, our business and
results of operations could be adversely affected.

68. Our operations and the workforce, customers and/ or third parties on property sites are exposed to various
hazards, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We conduct various site studies to identify potential risks prior to the acquisition of any parcel of land or
development rights for a parcel of land and its construction and development. However, there are certain
unanticipated or unforeseen risks that may arise due to adverse weather and geological conditions such as
outbreaks of storms, hurricanes, lightning, floods, landslides, rockslides and earthquakes and other reasons.
Additionally, our operations are subject to hazards inherent in providing such services, such as risk of equipment
failure, impact from falling objects, collision, work accidents, fire, or explosion, including hazards that may cause
injury and loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, and environmental damage.
Accidents and, in particular, fatalities may have an adverse impact on our reputation and may result in fines and/or
investigations by public authorities as well as litigation from injured workers or their dependents.

If any one of these hazards or other hazards were to occur involving our workforce, customers and/or third parties
on property sites, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. Further,
we may incur additional costs for reconstruction of our projects which are damaged by hazards which may not be
covered adequately or at all by the insurance coverage we maintain, and this may adversely affect our business,
reputation and financial condition.

69. Fraud or improper conduct may delay the development of a project and adversely affect our business and
results of operations.

The real estate development and construction market in India is not immune to the risks of fraud or improper
practices. Large construction projects provide opportunities for corruption, fraud or improper conduct, including
bribery, deliberate poor workmanship, theft or embezzlement by employees, contractors or customers or the

91
deliberate supply of low-quality materials. Although, no instances have occurred in relation to material fraud or
improper practices in our projects in past three years which have had any material impact on our prospects,
business and results of operations however if we or any other persons involved in any of the projects are the victim
of or involved in any such practices, our reputation or our ability to complete the relevant projects as contemplated
may be disrupted, thereby adversely affecting our business and results of operations.

External Risk Factors

Risks relating to investment in India

70. We are subject to regulatory, economic and social and political uncertainties and other factors beyond our
control.

We are incorporated in India and we conduct our corporate affairs and our business in India. Our Equity Shares
are proposed to be listed on the BSE and the NSE, subject to the receipt of the final listing and trading approvals
from the respective Stock Exchanges. Consequently, our business, operations, financial performance and the
market price of our Equity Shares will be affected by interest rates, government policies, taxation, social and
ethnic instability and other political and economic developments affecting India.

Factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and hence our results of operations may include:

 any exchange rate fluctuations, the imposition of currency controls and restrictions on the right to convert or
repatriate currency or export and import assets;
 any scarcity of credit or other financing in India, resulting in an adverse effect on economic conditions in
India and scarcity of financing for our expansions;
 prevailing income conditions among Indian customers and Indian corporations;
 political instability, terrorism, military conflict, epidemic or public health issues in India or in countries in
the region or globally, including in India’s various neighbouring countries;
 macroeconomic factors and central bank regulation, including in relation to interest rates movements which
may in turn adversely impact our access to capital and increase our borrowing costs;
 instability in financial markets and volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on, India’s
principal stock exchanges;
 decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves which may affect liquidity in the Indian economy;
 downgrading of India’s sovereign debt rating by rating agencies;
 difficulty in developing any necessary partnerships with local businesses on commercially acceptable terms
and/or a timely basis.
 changes in India’s tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies;
 other significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India or its infrastructure and real
estate sector; and
 international business practices that may conflict with other customs or legal requirements to which we are
subject to, including anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws; being subject to the jurisdiction of foreign courts,
including uncertainty of judicial processes and difficulty enforcing contractual agreements or judgments in
foreign legal systems or incurring additional costs to do so.

Moreover, a fall in the purchasing power of our customers, for any reason whatsoever, including rising consumer
inflation, availability of financing to our customers, changing governmental policies and a slowdown in economic
growth may have an adverse effect on our customers’ revenues, savings and could in turn negatively affect their
demand for our products. Demonetization of ₹ 500 and ₹ 1,000 currency notes was announced in November 2016.
The immediate impact of the announcement led to people depositing their cash in banks and the Indian economy
was drained out of liquid cash for a brief period. As majority of the Value Luxury home buyers make their
purchases with home loans, they went into a wait and watch mode owing to uncertainties. Developers also
refrained from launching new projects during this period as there were no buyers.

In addition, any slowdown or perceived slowdown in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian
economy, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of the
Equity Shares.

71. All our revenue is derived from business in India and a decline in economic growth or political instability
or changes in the Government in India could adversely affect our business.

92
We derive all our revenue from our operations in India and so the performance and the growth of our business are
dependent on the performance of the Indian economy. In the recent past, Indian economy has been affected by
global economic uncertainties and liquidity crisis, domestic policy and political environment, volatility in interest
rates, currency exchange rates, commodity and electricity prices, adverse conditions affecting agriculture, rising
inflation rates and various other factors. Risk management initiatives by banks and lenders in such circumstances
could affect the availability of funds in the future or the withdrawal of our existing credit facilities. The Indian
economy is undergoing many changes and it is difficult to predict the impact of certain fundamental economic
changes on our business. Conditions outside India, such as a slowdown or recession in the economic growth of
other major countries, especially the United States, may have an impact on the growth of the Indian economy.
Additionally, an increase in trade deficit, a downgrading in India’s sovereign debt rating or a decline in India’s
foreign exchange reserves could negatively affect interest rates and liquidity, which could adversely affect the
Indian economy and our business. Any downturn in the macroeconomic environment in India could adversely
affect our business, financial condition, results of operation and the trading price of our Equity Shares. Volatility,
negativity, or uncertain economic conditions could undermine the business confidence and could have a
significant impact on our results of operations. Changing demand patterns from economic volatility and
uncertainty could have a significant negative impact on our results of operations.

Further, our performance and the market price and liquidity of the Equity Shares may be affected by changes in
exchange rates and controls, interest rates, government policies, taxation, social and ethnic instability and other
political and economic developments affecting India. The GoI has traditionally exercised and continues to exercise
a significant influence over many aspects of the economy. Our business, the market price and liquidity of the
Equity Shares may be affected by changes in GoI policy, taxation, social and civil unrest and other political,
economic or other developments in or affecting India.

72. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as IFRS and U.S.
GAAP, which may be material to investors’ assessment of our financial condition.

The Restated Consolidated Financial Statements for three months period ended June 30, 2023 and Fiscals 2023,
2022 and 2021 included in this Red Herring Prospectus have been prepared under Ind AS notified under the
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 read with the Companies Act, 2013. For further details,
see the section “Restated Consolidated Financial Statements” on page 305.

Except as otherwise provided in the “Financial Statements” with respect to Ind AS, no attempt has been made to
reconcile any of the information given in this Red Herring Prospectus to any other principles or to base the
information on any other standards. Ind AS differs from other accounting principles with which prospective
investors may be familiar, such as IFRS and U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the degree to which the financial
statements, which are restated in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations, included in this Red Herring
Prospectus will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Ind
AS.

Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in
this Red Herring Prospectus should accordingly be limited. In addition, our Restated Consolidated Financial
Statements may be subject to change if new or amended Ind AS accounting standards are issued in the future or
if we revise our elections or selected exemptions in respect of the relevant regulations for the implementation of
Ind AS.

73. If there is any change in laws or regulations, including taxation laws, or their interpretation, such changes
may significantly affect our financial statements.

Any change in Indian tax laws could have an effect on our operations. For instance, the Taxation Laws
(Amendment) Act, 2019, a new tax legislation issued by India’s Ministry of Finance effective as of September
20, 2019, prescribes certain changes to the income tax rate applicable to companies in India. According to this
new ordinance, companies can henceforth voluntarily opt in favor of a concessional tax regime (subject to no
other special benefits/exemptions being claimed), which reduces the rate of income tax payable to 22%, subject
to compliance with conditions prescribed, from the erstwhile 25% or 30%, depending upon the total turnover or
gross receipt in the relevant period. While we had opted for the 22% concessional tax regime we may not be
subject to other benefits and exemptions, any such future amendments may affect our other benefits such as
exemption for income earned by way of dividend from investments in other domestic companies and units of
mutual funds, exemption for interest received in respect of tax free bonds, and long-term capital gains on equity

93
shares if withdrawn by the statute in the future, and the same may no longer be available to us.

The Finance Act, 2020 (“Finance Act”), has, amongst others things, provided a number of amendments to the
direct and indirect tax regime, including, without limitation, a simplified alternate direct tax regime and that
dividend distribution tax will not be payable in respect of dividends declared, distributed or paid by a domestic
company after March 31, 2020, and accordingly, such dividends would be taxable in the hands of the shareholders,
both resident as well as non-resident and are likely be subject to tax deduction at source. The Company may or
may not grant the benefit of a tax treaty (where applicable) to a non-resident shareholder for the purposes of
deducting tax at source from such dividend. Investors should consult their own tax advisors about the
consequences of investing or trading in the Equity Shares.

The Government announced the union budget for Fiscal 2024 and the Finance Bill in the Lok Sabha on February
1, 2023. The Finance Bill has received assent from the President of India on March 30, 2023 and has been enacted
as the Finance Act 2023. Further, the Government of India has imposed additional tax measures for Fiscal 2023,
which, among others, requires taxpayers to explain sources of cash credits, introduce a separate 30% tax on income
from virtual digital assets, extend the anti-tax avoidance provision to bonus stripping of securities and repeal the
15% concessional rate on foreign dividends.

In addition, we are subject to tax related inquiries and claims. We may be particularly affected by claims from tax
authorities on account of income tax assessment, service tax and GST that combines taxes and levies by the central
and state governments into one unified rate of interest with effect from July 1, 2017. We cannot predict whether
any new tax laws or regulations impacting our services will be enacted, what the nature and impact of the specific
terms of any such laws or regulations will be or whether, if at all, any laws or regulations would have an adverse
effect on our business.

74. Inflation in India could have an adverse effect on our profitability and if significant, on our financial
condition.

Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue in the future. India has
experienced high inflation in the recent past. Increased inflation can contribute to an increase in interest rates and
increased costs to our business, including increased costs of transportation, wages, raw materials and other
expenses relevant to our business.

High fluctuations in inflation rates may make it more difficult for us to accurately estimate or control our costs.
Any increase in inflation in India can increase our expenses, which we may not be able to adequately pass on to
our clients, whether entirely or in part, and may adversely affect our business and financial condition. In particular,
we might not be able to reduce our costs or increase the price of our products to pass the increase in costs on to
our clients, entirely or in part. In such case, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition
may be adversely affected.

Further, the Government of India has previously initiated economic measures to combat high inflation rates, and
it is unclear whether these measures will remain in effect. There can be no assurance that Indian inflation levels
will not worsen in the future.

75. Financial instability, economic developments and volatility in securities markets in other countries may
also cause the price of the Equity Shares to decline.

The Indian market and economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries, including
the United States, Europe and certain emerging economies in Asia. Financial turmoil in Asia, Russia and
elsewhere in the world in recent years has adversely affected the Indian economy. Any worldwide financial
instability may cause increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and, directly or indirectly, adversely
affect the Indian economy and financial sector and us. Although economic conditions vary across markets, loss
of investor confidence in one emerging economy may cause increased volatility across other economies, including
India. Financial instability in other parts of the world could have a global influence and thereby negatively affect
the Indian economy. Financial disruptions could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows. Further, economic developments globally can have a significant
impact on our principal markets. Concerns related to a trade war between large economies may lead to increased
risk aversion and volatility in global capital markets and consequently have an impact on the Indian economy.

In addition, China is one of India’s major trading partners and there are rising concerns of a possible slowdown

94
in the Chinese economy as well as a strained relationship with India, which could have an adverse impact on the
trade relations between the two countries. In response to such developments, legislators and financial regulators
in the United States and other jurisdictions, including India, implemented a number of policy measures designed
to add stability to the financial markets. However, the overall long-term effect of these and other legislative and
regulatory efforts on the global financial markets is uncertain, and they may not have the intended stabilizing
effects. Any significant financial disruption could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operation. These developments, or the perception that any of them could occur, have had
and may continue to have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global
financial markets and may significantly reduce global market liquidity, restrict the ability of key market
participants to operate in certain financial markets or restrict our access to capital. This could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of the Equity
Shares.

76. Investors may not be able to enforce a judgment of a foreign court against us or our management.

We are incorporated under the laws of India and all of our Promoter, Directors, Key Management Personnel and
senior management personnel reside in India. Majority of our assets, and the assets of certain of our Promoter,
Directors, key management personnel and other senior management, are also located in India. Where investors
wish to enforce foreign judgments in India, they may face difficulties in enforcing such judgments. India is not a
party to any international treaty in relation to the recognition or enforcement of foreign judgments. India exercises
reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters with a limited number of
jurisdictions which includes the United Kingdom, Singapore and Hong Kong. In order to be enforceable, a
judgment obtained in a jurisdiction which India recognises as a reciprocating territory must meet certain
requirements of the Code of Civil Procedures, 1908 (the “Civil Code”). Further, the Civil Code only permits
enforcement of monetary decrees not being in the nature of any amounts payable in respect of taxes or, other
charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or other penalty and does not provide for the enforcement of
arbitration awards. Judgments or decrees from jurisdictions not recognised as a reciprocating territory by India
cannot be enforced or executed in India. Even if a party were to obtain a judgment in such a jurisdiction, it would
be required to institute a fresh suit upon the judgment and would not be able to enforce such judgment by
proceedings in execution. Further, the party which has obtained such judgment must institute the new proceedings
within three years of obtaining the judgment.

As a result, you as an Investor may be unable to: (i) effect service of process outside of India upon us and such
other persons or entities; or (ii) enforce in courts outside of India judgments obtained in such courts against us
and such other persons or entities. It is unlikely that a court in India would award damages on the same basis as a
foreign court if an action were brought in India. Furthermore, it is unlikely that an Indian court would enforce
foreign judgments if it viewed the amount of damages awarded as excessive or inconsistent with Indian practice.
A party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain prior approval from the RBI to
repatriate any amount recovered pursuant to the execution of such foreign judgment, and any such amount may
be subject to income tax in accordance with applicable laws.

77. Rights of shareholders under Indian law may be more limited than under the laws of other jurisdictions.

Our Articles and Indian law govern our corporate affairs. Legal principles relating to these matters and the validity
of corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities, and shareholders’ rights may differ from those
that would apply to a corporate entity in another jurisdiction. Shareholders’ rights under Indian law may not be as
extensive as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may have more
difficulty in asserting their rights as one of our Shareholders than as a shareholder of a corporate entity in another
jurisdiction.

78. Land is subject to compulsory acquisition by the government and compensation in lieu of such acquisition
may be inadequate. Any such acquisition of land or properties by the government for compensation which
may not be adequate may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The right to own property in India is subject to restrictions that may be imposed by the government. In particular,
the Government under the provisions of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition,
Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 and (the “Land Acquisition Act”) has the right to compulsorily
acquire any land if such acquisition is for a “public purpose”, after providing compensation to such owner of the
land. However, the compensation paid pursuant to such acquisition may not be adequate to compensate the owner
for the loss of such property. The likelihood of such acquisitions may increase as central and state governments

95
seek to acquire land for the development of infrastructure projects such as roads, railways, airports and townships.
Additionally, we may face difficulties in interpreting and complying with the provisions of the Land Acquisition
Act, due to limited jurisprudence on them in the event our interpretation differs from or contradicts with any
judicial pronouncements or clarifications issued by the Government. In the future, we may face regulatory actions
or we may be required to undertake remedial steps. Any such action in respect of any of the projects in which we
are investing or may invest in the future may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of
operations.

79. The occurrence of natural or man-made disasters could adversely affect our results of operations, cash
flows and financial condition. Hostilities, terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other acts of violence could
adversely affect the financial markets and our business.

Natural disasters (such as typhoons, flooding and earthquakes), epidemics, pandemics such as Covid-19, acts of
war, terrorist attacks and other events, many of which are beyond our control, may lead to economic instability,
including in India or globally, which may in turn materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition
and results of operations. Our operations may be adversely affected by fires, natural disasters and/or severe
weather, which can result in damage to our property or inventory and generally reduce our productivity and may
require us to evacuate personnel and suspend operations. Any terrorist attacks or civil unrest as well as other
adverse social, economic and political events in India could have a negative effect on us. Such incidents could
also create a greater perception that investment in Indian companies involves a higher degree of risk and could
have an adverse effect on our business and the price of the Equity Shares. A number of countries in Asia, including
India, as well as countries in other parts of the world, are susceptible to contagious diseases and, for example,
have had confirmed cases of diseases such as the highly pathogenic H7N9, H5N1 and H1N1 strains of influenza
in birds and swine and the Covid-19 virus. Further outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic or of similar contagious
diseases in India could adversely affect the Indian economy and economic activity in the region. As a result, any
present or future outbreak of a contagious disease could have a material adverse effect on our business and the
trading price of the Equity Shares.

80. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating by an independent agency may harm our ability to raise financing.

Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings by international rating agencies may adversely affect our ability to
raise additional overseas financing due to increased interest rates and stringent commercial terms at which such
additional financing is available. This could have an adverse effect on our ability to fund our growth on favourable
terms or at all, and consequently adversely affect our business and financial performance and the price of our
Equity Shares.

Risks Relating to the Equity Shares

81. The trading volume and market price of the Equity Shares may be volatile following the Issue.

The market price of the Equity Shares may fluctuate as a result of, among other things, the following factors, some
of which are beyond our control:

 quarterly variations in our earnings and results of operation, as well as those of our competitors;
 failure of securities analysts to cover the Equity Shares after the Issue;
 results of operations that vary from the expectations of research analysts and investors;
 results of operations that vary from those of our competitors;
 changes in expectations or estimates as to our future financial performance, including financial estimates by
research analysts and investors;
 a change in research analysts’ recommendations;
 announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint operations or
capital commitments;
 activities of our suppliers;
 announcements by third parties or governmental entities of significant claims or proceedings against us;
 new laws and governmental regulations applicable to our industry;
 additions or departures of key management personnel;
 changes in exchange rates;
 fluctuations in stock market prices and volume; and
 general economic and stock market conditions.

96
Changes in relation to any of the factors listed above could adversely affect the price of the Equity Shares.

82. The Equity Shares have never been publicly traded, and, after the Issue, the Equity Shares may experience
price and volume fluctuations, and an active trading market for the Equity Shares may not develop.
Further, the price of the Equity Shares may be volatile, and you may be unable to resell the Equity Shares
at or above the Issue Price, or at all.

Prior to the Issue, there has been no public market for the Equity Shares, and an active trading market on the Stock
Exchanges may not develop or be sustained after the Issue. Listing and quotation does not guarantee that a market
for the Equity Shares will develop, or if developed, the liquidity of such market for the Equity Shares. The Issue
Price of the Equity Shares is proposed to be determined through a book-building process in accordance with the
SEBI ICDR Regulations and may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares at the time of
commencement of trading of the Equity Shares or at any time thereafter. The market price of the Equity Shares
may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors, variations in our operating results
of our Company, market conditions specific to the industry we operate in, developments relating to India, volatility
in securities markets in jurisdictions other than India, variations in the growth rate of financial indicators,
variations in revenue or earnings estimates by research publications, and changes in economic, legal and other
regulatory factors.

83. Fluctuation in the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies may have an adverse
effect on the value of our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.

On listing, our Equity Shares will be quoted in Indian Rupees on the Stock Exchanges. Any dividends in respect
of our Equity Shares will also be paid in Indian Rupees and subsequently converted into the relevant foreign
currency for repatriation, if required. Any adverse movement in currency exchange rates during the time that it
takes to undertake such conversion may reduce the net dividend to foreign investors. In addition, any adverse
movement in currency exchange rates during a delay in repatriating outside India the proceeds from a sale of
Equity Shares, for example, because of a delay in regulatory approvals that may be required for the sale of Equity
Shares may reduce the proceeds received by Equity Shareholders. For example, the exchange rate between the
Rupee and the U.S. dollar has fluctuated substantially in recent years and may continue to fluctuate substantially
in the future, which may have an adverse effect on the trading price of our Equity Shares and returns on our Equity
Shares, independent of our operating results.

84. You will not be able to sell, immediately on the Stock Exchanges, any of the Equity Shares you purchase
in the Issue.

The Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchanges. Pursuant to the applicable Indian laws, certain actions
must be completed before the Equity Shares can be listed and trading in the Equity Shares may commence.
Investors’ book entry, or ‘demat’ accounts with depository participants in India, are expected to be credited within
one working day of the date on which the Basis of Allotment is approved by the Stock Exchanges. The Allotment
of Equity Shares in this Issue and the credit of such Equity Shares to the applicant’s demat account with depository
participant could take approximately six Working Days from the Bid Closing Date and trading in the Equity
Shares upon receipt of final listing and trading approvals from the Stock Exchanges is expected to commence
within six Working Days of the Bid Closing Date. There could be a failure or delay in listing of the Equity Shares
on the Stock Exchanges. Any failure or delay in obtaining the approval or otherwise commence trading in the
Equity Shares would restrict investors’ ability to dispose of their Equity Shares. There can be no assurance that
the Equity Shares will be credited to investors’ demat accounts, or that trading in the Equity Shares will
commence, within the time periods specified in this risk factor. We could also be required to pay interest at the
applicable rates if allotment is not made, refund orders are not dispatched or demat credits are not made to
investors within the prescribed time periods.

85. Under Indian law, foreign investors are subject to investment restrictions that limit our ability to attract
foreign investors, which may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

Under foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfer of shares between non-residents and
residents are freely permitted (subject to certain restrictions), if they comply with the valuation and reporting
requirements specified by the RBI. If a transfer of shares is not in compliance with such requirements and does
not fall under any of the exceptions specified by the RBI, then the RBI’s prior approval is required. Additionally,
shareholders who seek to convert Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign currency and repatriate

97
that foreign currency from India require a no-objection or a tax clearance certificate from the Indian income tax
authorities. We cannot assure you that any required approval from the RBI or any other governmental agency can
be obtained on any particular terms or at all. For further information, see “Restriction on Foreign Ownership of
Indian Securities” on page 484.

While the Government has permitted FDI of up to 100% without prior regulatory approval in the construction-
development projects including development of townships, construction of residential or commercial premises,
roads or bridges, hotels, resorts, hospitals, educational institutions, recreational facilities, city and regional level
infrastructure, and townships, it has imposed certain conditions, such as a three year lock-in on repatriation of
investments by persons resident outside India prior to completion of the project.

In terms of Press Note 3 of 2020, dated April 17, 2020 issued by the Department for Promotion of Industry and
Internal Trade, the foreign direct investment policy has been recently amended to state that all investments under
the foreign direct investment route by entities of a country which shares land border with India or where the
beneficial owners of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country will require prior
approval of the Government. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign direct
investment in an entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within the
aforesaid restriction/ purview, such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require approval of
the Government. Furthermore, on April 22, 2020, the Ministry of Finance, Government of India has also made
similar amendment to the FEMA Rules. While the term “beneficial owner” is defined under the Prevention of
Money-Laundering (Maintenance of Records) Rules, 2005 and the General Financial Rules, 2017, neither the
foreign direct investment policy nor the FEMA Rules provide a definition of the term “beneficial owner”. The
interpretation of “beneficial owner” and enforcement of this regulatory change involves certain uncertainties,
which may have an adverse effect on our ability to raise foreign capital. Further, there is uncertainty regarding the
timeline within which the said approval from the Government may be obtained, if at all.

However, the FEMA Rules permit participation in the Issue by the following categories of non-residents, without
application of the conditions imposed on FDI investments: (i) FPIs under Schedule II of the FEMA Rules, in
accordance with applicable law, in the Issue subject to the limit of an FPI holding below 10% of the post-Issue
paid-up capital of our Company, on a fully diluted basis and the aggregate limit for FPI investment currently not
exceeding 100% (sectoral limit); and (ii) Eligible NRIs only on non-repatriation basis under Schedule IV of the
FEMA Rules, in accordance with applicable law. Further, other non-residents such as FVCIs and multilateral and
bilateral development financial institutions are not permitted to participate in the Issue. As per the existing policy
of the Government, OCBs cannot participate in this Issue. For more information on bids by FPIs and Eligible
NRIs, see “Issue Procedure” on page 464.

86. We may be affected by competition law in India and any adverse application or interpretation of the
Competition Act could in turn adversely affect our business.

The Competition Act was enacted for the purpose of preventing practices that have or are likely to have an adverse
effect on competition in India and has mandated the CCI to regulate such practices. Under the Competition Act,
any arrangement, understanding or action, whether formal or informal, which causes or is likely to cause an
appreciable adverse effect on competition is void and attracts substantial penalties.

Further, any agreement among competitors which, directly or indirectly, involves determination of purchase or
sale prices, limits or controls production, or shares the market by way of geographical area or number of
subscribers in the relevant market is presumed to have an appreciable adverse effect in the relevant market in India
and shall be void. The Competition Act also prohibits abuse of a dominant position by any enterprise. On March
4, 2011, the Central Government notified and brought into force the combination regulation (merger control)
provisions under the Competition Act with effect from June 1, 2011. These provisions require acquisitions of
shares, voting rights, assets or control or mergers or amalgamations that cross the prescribed asset and turnover
based thresholds to be mandatorily notified to, and pre-approved by, the CCI. Additionally, on May 11, 2011, the
CCI issued the Competition Commission of India (Procedure for Transaction of Business Relating to
Combinations) Regulations, 2011, as amended, which sets out the mechanism for implementation of the merger
control regime in India. The Competition Act aims to, among other things, prohibit all agreements and transactions
which may have an appreciable adverse effect in India. Consequently, all agreements entered into by us could be
within the purview of the Competition Act. Further, the CCI has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any
agreements, abusive conduct or combination occurring outside of India if such agreement, conduct or combination
has an appreciable adverse effect in India. However, the impact of the provisions of the Competition Act on the
agreements entered into by us cannot be predicted with certainty at this stage. We do not have any outstanding

98
notices in relation to non-compliance with the Competition Act or the agreements entered into by us.

However, if we are affected, directly or indirectly, by the application or interpretation of any provision of the
Competition Act, or any enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI, or any adverse publicity that may be
generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI or if any prohibition or substantial penalties are levied under
the Competition Act, it would adversely affect our business.

87. You may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity Shares.

Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares
held as investments in an Indian company are generally taxable in India. Any capital gain realised on the sale of
listed equity shares on a Stock Exchange held for more than 12 months immediately preceding the date of transfer
will be subject to long term capital gains in India at the specified rates depending on certain factors, such as
whether the sale is undertaken on or off the Stock Exchanges, the quantum of gains and any available treaty relief.
Accordingly, you may be subject to payment of long term capital gains tax in India, in addition to payment of
Securities Transaction Tax (“STT”), on the sale of any Equity Shares held for more than 12 months immediately
preceding the date of transfer. STT will be levied on and collected by a domestic stock exchange on which the
Equity Shares are sold. Further, any capital gains realised on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of
12 months or less immediately preceding the date of transfer will be subject to short term capital gains tax in
India. Capital gains arising from the sale of the Equity Shares will not be chargeable to tax in India in cases where
relief from such taxation in India is provided under a treaty between India and the country of which the seller is
resident and the seller is entitled to avail benefits thereunder. Generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit India’s
ability to impose tax on capital gains. As a result, residents of other countries may be liable for tax in India as well
as in their own jurisdiction on a gain upon the sale of the Equity Shares.

Similarly, any business income realised from the transfer of Equity Shares held as trading assets is taxable at the
applicable tax rates subject to any treaty relief, if applicable, to a non-resident seller. Additionally, in terms of the
Finance Act, 2018, which has been notified on March 29, 2018 with effect from April 1, 2018, the tax payable by
an assessee on the capital gains arising from transfer of long term capital asset (introduced as section 112A of the
Income-Tax Act, 1961) shall be calculated on such long-term capital gains at the rate of 10%, where the long-
term capital gains exceed ₹100,000, subject to certain exceptions in case of a resident individuals and HUF.

88. The Issue Price of the Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares after
the Issue.

The Issue Price of the Equity Shares will be determined by our Company in consultation with the BRLMs through
the Book Building Process. This price will be based on numerous factors, as described under “Basis for Issue
Price” on page 145, and may not be indicative of the market price for the Equity Shares after the Issue. The market
price of the Equity Shares could be subject to significant fluctuations after the Issue, and may decline below the
Issue Price. We cannot assure you that the investor will be able to resell their Equity Shares at or above the Issue
Price.

89. The market value of the Equity Shares may fluctuate due to the volatility of the Indian securities markets.

Indian securities markets may be more volatile than and not comparable to, the securities markets in certain
countries with more developed economies and capital markets of other countries. Indian stock exchanges have, in
the past, experienced substantial fluctuations in the prices of listed securities. Indian stock exchanges (including
the BSE and the NSE) have experienced problems which, if such or similar problems were to continue or recur,
could affect the market price and liquidity of the securities of Indian companies, including the Equity Shares.
These problems have included temporary exchange closures, broker defaults, settlement delays and strikes by
brokers. In addition, the governing bodies of Indian stock exchanges have, from time to time, imposed restrictions
on trading in certain securities, limitations on price movements and margin requirements. Further, from time to
time, disputes have occurred between listed companies, stock exchanges and other regulatory bodies, which in
some cases may have a negative effect on market sentiment.

90. Any future issuance of Equity Shares may dilute your shareholding and sales of the Equity Shares by our
Promoter or other major Shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

Our Company may be required to finance our growth through future equity offerings. Any future equity issuances
by our Company, including a primary offering, may lead to the dilution of investors’ shareholdings in our

99
Company. Any future issuances of Equity Shares or the disposal of Equity Shares by our Promoter or any of our
Company’s other principal Shareholders or the perception that such issuance or sales may occur, including to
comply with the minimum public shareholding norms applicable to listed companies in India may adversely affect
the trading price of the Equity Shares, which may lead to other adverse consequences including difficulty in raising
capital through offering of the Equity Shares or incurring additional debt. There can be no assurance that we will
not issue further Equity Shares or that the Shareholders will not dispose of, pledge or otherwise encumber the
Equity Shares. Any future issuances could also dilute the value of Investor’s investment in the Equity Shares. In
addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur may also affect the market price of
the Equity Shares.

91. Holders of Equity Shares may be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian law
and thereby may suffer future dilution of their ownership position.

Under the Companies Act, a company having share capital and incorporated in India must offer its holders of
equity shares pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of equity shares to maintain their
existing ownership percentages before the issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have
been waived by adoption of a special resolution by the company. However, if the laws of the jurisdiction the
investors are located in does not permit them to exercise their pre-emptive rights without our Company filing an
offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in such jurisdiction, the investors will
be unable to exercise their pre-emptive rights unless our Company makes such a filing. If our Company elects not
to file a registration statement, the new securities may be issued to a custodian, who may sell the securities for the
investor’s benefit. The value the custodian receives on the sale of such securities and the related transaction costs
cannot be predicted. In addition, to the extent that the investors are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted
in respect of the Equity Shares held by them, their proportional interest in us would be reduced.

92. QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of quantity
of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid.

Pursuant to the SEBI Regulations, QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders are not permitted to withdraw or lower
their Bids (in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid. Retail
Individual Bidders can revise their Bids during the Bid/Issue Period and withdraw their Bids until Bid/Issue
Closing Date. While our Company is required to complete Allotment pursuant to the Issue within six Working
Days from the Bid/Issue Closing Date, events affecting the Bidders’ decision to invest in the Equity Shares,
including material adverse changes in international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic
conditions, our business, results of operation or financial condition may arise between the date of submission of
the Bid and Allotment. Our Company may complete the Allotment of the Equity Shares even if such events occur,
and such events limit the Bidders’ ability to sell the Equity Shares Allotted pursuant to the Issue or cause the
trading price of the Equity Shares to decline on listing.

and strategy or external circumstances such as market conditions, the economic conditions, changing regulatory
policies, prevailing competitive environment, interest or exchange rate fluctuations, which may not be in our
control. This may entail rescheduling the proposed utilisation of the Net Proceeds, excluding the Net Proceed to
be utilized for general corporate purposes and changing the allocation of funds from our planned allocation at the
discretion of our management, subject to compliance with applicable laws. In the event that the estimated
utilization out of the Net Proceeds, excluding the Net Proceed to be utilized for general corporate purposes in a

by our Company, in accordance with applicable law. This may entail rescheduling and revising the planned
expenditure and funding requirement and increasing or decreasing the expenditure for a particular purpose from
the planned expenditure at the discretion of our management, subject to compliance with applicable law.

In case we require additional capital towards meeting the objects of the Issue, our Company may explore arrange
of options including utilising internal accruals and availing additional debt from existing and/or future lenders.
We believe that such alternate arrangements would be available to fund any such shortfalls. If the actual utilisation
towards any of the objects is lower than the proposed deployment, such balance will be used for funding future
growth opportunities, and/or towards funding any of the other existing objects (if required), and/or general
corporate purposes within the permissible limit in accordance with applicable law.

Means of finance

The fund requirements for all objects are proposed to be entirely out of the Net Proceeds and our internal accruals.
Accordingly, we confirm that there is no requirement to make firm arrangements of finance through verifiable
means towards at least 75% of the stated means of finance, excluding the amount to be raised through the Net
Proceeds and through existing identifiable internal accruals as required under Regulation 7(1)(e) the SEBI ICDR
Regulations.

Details of the Objects

1. Repayment/Prepayment of the aggregate outstanding borrowings of our Company and our


Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited and Skyline
Realty Private Limited

Our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited
and Skyline Realty Private Limited have in the ordinary course of business entered into various financing
arrangements with banks and financial institutions, which include term loans and working capital facilities,
including fund based and non-fund-based borrowings. As of September 30, 2023, the total outstanding
consolidated borrowing of our Company is ₹ 5,688.25 million. For further details, see “Financial Indebtedness”
on page 368. Our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers

131
Private Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited propose to utilise an amount of ₹ 2,850.00 million from the
Net Proceeds towards part or full repayment and/or pre-payment (earlier or scheduled) of certain borrowings
availed by our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private
Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited.

Given the nature of these borrowings and the terms of repayment or prepayment, the aggregate outstanding
amounts under these borrowings may vary from time to time and our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord
Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited may, in
accordance with the relevant repayment schedule, levy of any prepayment penalties and the quantum thereof,
repay or refinance some of their existing borrowings or avail of additional credit facilities. The selection of
borrowings proposed to be prepaid, repaid (earlier or scheduled) out of the borrowings provided above, shall be
based on various factors including (i) any conditions attached to the borrowings restricting our ability to prepay
the borrowings and time taken to fulfil such requirements, (ii) receipt of consents for prepayment or waiver from
any conditions attached to such prepayment from our respective lenders, (iii) terms and conditions of such
consents and waivers, (iv) levy of any prepayment penalties and the quantum thereof, (v) provisions of any law,
rules, regulations governing such borrowings, and (vi) other commercial considerations including, among others,
the interest rate on the loan facility, the amount of the loan outstanding and the remaining tenor of the loan.
However, the aggregate amount to be utilised from the Net Proceeds towards prepayment or repayment of
borrowings (including refinanced or additional facilities availed, if any), in part or full, of our Company and our
Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers Private Limited and Skyline Realty
Private Limited will not exceed ₹ 2,850.00 million.

We believe that such repayment and/or pre-payment will help reduce our outstanding indebtedness on a
consolidated basis, reduce debt servicing costs, improve our debt to equity ratio and enable utilisation of our
accruals for further investment in our business growth and expansion. Additionally, we believe that the leverage
capacity of our Company and our Subsidiaries, Accord Estates Private Limited, Iconic Property Developers
Private Limited and Skyline Realty Private Limited will improve our ability to raise further resources in the future
to fund our potential business development opportunities and plans to grow and expand our business.

2. Acquisition of land or land development rights

Our core business is residential real estate developments with a focus on value luxury and luxury segment. Currently, we
have residential projects in South Central Mumbai and adjoining areas. For details, see “Our Business” on page 220.”

The Indian real estate industry has gone through substantial changes in the last few years. With the advent of RERA and
subsequently the COVID-19 pandemic, participants in the industry have generally reviewed their existing business models
and been flexible to newer models. As part of our strategy, we intend to continue to acquire strategically located parcels of
land at competitive prices while ensuring a disciplined capital structure with the goal of maximizing returns and developing
a robust pipeline of projects which we finalise after thorough evaluation.

We propose to acquire land or land development rights primarily in Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) and propose to
utilise an amount of ₹ 350.00 million from the Net Proceeds towards such acquisition of land or land development rights.
Costs of acquiring land or land development rights will vary depending on various factors, such as, location of land in prime
areas or otherwise, profile of the population in the surrounding areas, type of project that can be developed, general economic
conditions and the extent of negotiations between us and the parties from whom we propose to acquire land. Further, besides
the purchase price payable for the acquisition of land, the cost of acquisition would include various other components, such
as brokerage, cost of title searches, stamp duty, taxes, legal fees, cost of conversion of the status of land and the cost of
obtaining approvals. We use different ways to acquire land. Land can be acquired through auctions in the market by bidding
for the auction or directly through negotiations with the seller. It can also be acquired through acquisition, joint ventures or
joint development right arrangements with companies that hold the land parcels. All these elements, would be a part of the
cost of acquisition of land or land development rights. Further, as referred to above, given our construction and marketing
abilities together with our strong brand recall, we may also consider acquiring companies or groups undergoing stress, which
are unable to complete the projects in a timely manner and/or have large contiguous land parcels where construction can
begin quickly. In the event that any acquisition of land is undertaken through subsidiaries or other forms of investments, the
detailed terms and conditions of such investments would be decided, from time to time, on a project-wise basis.

We are evaluating land and land development opportunities in Bandra (west) region to cater to the demand in the residential
Luxury Segment offering 2, 3 and 4 BHK apartments, whereas in the Dadar (west) and Mahim (west) micro market of the
SCM, we are evaluating land and land development opportunities to cater to the demand in the residential Value Luxury
Segment offering 1 and 2 BHK apartments.

As on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we have not entered into any definitive agreements towards any future
acquisitions. For further information, see “Risk Factors- We have not entered into any definitive agreements to use a portion
of the proceeds of the Issue and may invest or spend the proceeds of the Issue in ways with which you may not agree” on
Page 72.

We intend to utilise the entire amount earmarked for the acquisition of land or land development rights from Fiscal 2024 to
Fiscal 2025, i.e. within a period of 24 months commencing from the date of receipt of the Net Proceeds by the Company. As
currently we have not identified the land which we propose to acquire, the proposed deployment of funds from Fiscal 2024
to Fiscal 2025 may vary from year to year. However, we anticipate that the entire amount would be utilised for the acquisition
of land or land development rights by Fiscal 2025. The process of acquisition of land or land development rights is a time
consuming process which requires exhaustive set of diligence procedures to assess the title and is influenced by other factors.

Further, in accordance with the SEBI Listing Regulations, our Company will disclose to the Stock Exchanges as and when
acquired, the cost of acquisition and other details such as nature of title or interest acquired in the land.

We undertake that post acquisition, the land will be free of all encumbrances and have clear title or the encumbrances, if any,
will be removed by undertaking negotiations and financial settlements (with parties holding pledge and in certain cases those
who may have encroached on the land).

The details of the property (land or land development rights) acquired by our Company in the last three years are as follows:

construed as an alternative to Ind AS measures of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity or
results of operation. Although these KPIs are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with applicable
accounting standards, our Company’s management believes that it provides an additional tool for investors to use in
evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial
performance, when taken collectively with financial measures prepared in accordance with Ind AS. Investors are encouraged
to review the Ind AS financial measures and to not rely on any single financial or operational metric to evaluate our business.
The tables below set forth the details of our KPIs that our Company considers have a bearing for arriving at the basis for
Issue Price.

UNDER THE APPLICABLE LAWS IN INDIA – INCOME-TAX ACT, 1961

Outlined below are the special tax benefits available to Suraj Estate Developers Limited (the “Company”) and its
Shareholders under The Income Tax Act, 1961 (the “Act”) as amended by the Finance Act, 2023 applicable for
the Financial Year 2023-24 relevant to the Assessment Year 2024-25, presently in force in India.

A. Special tax benefits available to the Company

a) Lower corporate tax rates on income of domestic companies - Section 115BAA of the Act

The Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act, 2019 introduced section 115BAA wherein domestic companies are entitled
to avail a concessional tax rate of 22% (plus applicable surcharge and cess) on fulfillment of certain conditions.
The option to apply this tax rate is available from FY 2019-20 relevant to AY 2020-21 and the option once
exercised shall apply to subsequent assessment years. The concessional rate of 22% is subject to the company not
availing any of the following specified tax exemptions/incentives under the Act:

 Deduction u/s 10AA: Tax holiday available to units in a Special Economic Zone;

 Deductions available under the Chapter VI-A except under section 80JJAA and section 80M;

 Deduction u/s 32(1)(iia): Additional Depreciation;

 Deduction u/s 32AD: Investment allowance;

 Deduction u/s 35AD: Deduction for capital expenditure incurred on specified businesses;

 Deduction under certain sub-sections/clauses of Section 35: Expenditure on scientific research.

The total income of a company availing the concessional rate of 22% is required to be computed without set-off
of any carried forward loss and depreciation attributable to any of the aforesaid deductions/incentives. A company
can exercise the option to apply for the concessional tax rate in its return of income filed under section 139(1) of
the Act. Further, provisions of Minimum Alternate Tax (‘MAT’) under section 115JB of the Act shall not be
applicable to companies availing this reduced tax rate, thus, any carried forward MAT credit also cannot be
claimed.

The provisions do not specify any limitation/condition on account of turnover, nature of business or date of
incorporation for opting for the concessional tax rate. Accordingly, all existing as well as new domestic companies
are eligible to avail this concessional rate of tax.

We understand that the company has opted for the lower corporate tax with effect from Assessment Year 2021-
22.

B. Special tax benefits available to the subsidiaries.

OVERVIEW OF INDIAN ECONOMY

India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and is expected to be one of the top economic powers
in the world in coming decade. Real estate sector along with its ancillary industries is a significant growth driver
of Indian economy. India’s residential real estate market has not had it easy in the recent years. The pandemic has
affected all the asset classes. However, owing to various govenrment incentives, both at central and state levels,
coupled with pent up demand, the sector has witnessed significant revival since October 2020.

GDP GROWTH

India has been one of the fastest-growing economies in the world over the last few years. In 2022, India overtook
the UK to become the world’s fifth biggest economy, after the US, China, Japan. and Germany. India showed
robust growth in FY2023 amidst prevailing global headwinds and rising inflation and recorded a growth of 6.8%,
the highest among major economies worldwide. Sound domestic macro-fundamentals, fiscal policy thrust on
capex, healthy balance sheets of the corporate sector and the financial sector, and structural reforms announced
and implemented over the recent years by the government have strengthened the resilience of the economy,
besides stepping up the growth momentum. COVID-19 was largely on the ebb for most of the year, and the
universal vaccination programme of the government helped improve consumer and business confidence.
Recovering from the COVID-19 induced restrictions over the previous two years, private consumption rebounded
strongly in FY2023 above the pre-pandemic level. Labour market conditions normalised, and unorganised sector
activity returned to expansion zone.

Pent-up demand and robust consumer sentiment for home ownership in the aftermath of the pandemic underlay a
strong recovery in the residential housing sector in FY2023. In FY2023, housing launches improved consistently
in terms of completed projects after two years of intermittent shutdowns. Housing sales increased, and as launches
surpassed sales, unsold inventory increased.

To control inflation and bring it within the tolerance band, the Reserve Bank raised the policy repo rate
cumulatively by 210 bps between May 2022 and September 2023.

The real GDP is expected to grow 6.3% in FY2024 and 6.2% in FY2025, the highest among major global

161
economies.The following graph sets forth real GDP growth rate of India from FY2014 to FY2028 (forecasted):

Rising Indian household income100 million households to be added to mid-income category by 2030

According to a report by World Economic Forum, growth in income will transform India from a bottom-of-the-
pyramid economy to a middle-class economy. Post-economic normalcy (which got disrupted due to COVID-19),
household income growth is expected in the upper-middle class and lower-middle-class bracket. It is estimated
that over 100 million households will be added to the Upper Mid Income and Lower Mid Income bracket
combined by 2030. Households from this income bracket are expected to drive the demand for the housing aimed
at the Mid income category in tier I and II cities.

Increasing urbanization to drive demand for housing

It is a globally established fact that demographic shifts fundamentally affect the demand for real estate. India’s
large population base of over 1.37 bn provides a huge domestic demand base which attracts businesses from across
the world to setup their operations here. Along with rising population, India’s urbanization rate is also increasing
at a fast pace. As per UNDP projections, by 2046 approximately 50% of India’s population will be urban.
However, rapid urbanization is expected to drive the demand for housing, offices and other real estate asset classes
in the medium – long term. UNDP has projected that there will be 8 cities with a population of 10 mn & above by
the year 2035 in India, highlighting the unmet housing demand.

Demographic Dividend

As per a report by UNFPA, in 2011 India had 61% of its population in the age group of 15-59 years which is
increasing and will peak around 2036 when it will reach approximately 65%. With increase in young population,
the dependency ratio has also been declining and India has entered in the period of demographic dividend. As per
UNFPA definition, demographic dividend is the economic growth potential that can result from shifts in a
population’s age structure, mainly when the share of the working-age population, 15 to 64, is larger than the non-
working-age share of the population, 14 and younger or 65 and older.

Once a country enters demographic dividend phase, there opens a window of opportunity for economic
development. Many Asian countries like Japan, China and South Korea were able to use this demographic
dividend as the growth potential for their respective economies.

Figure 2.11

Source: ‘An Assessment of Demographic Dividend in India and its Large States’ by P. M. Kulkarni, 2017’. A
study commissioned by UNFPA.
Share of urban population and age distribution profile are one of the key demand drivers for real estate in a country.
India along with an increasing urban population is relatively a younger nation as compared to developed
economies of the world and is likely to retain its position for future as well. This indicates that India with one of
the largest workforces will be a huge market for both residential as well as other asset classes.

Employment rate recovering to Pre-covid levels

Major labour market indicators - all-India unemployment rate, worker population ratio and labour force
participation rate have surpassed pre-COVID levels. The unemployment rate has been declining amid the rising
labour force participation rate. The labour market conditions in urban areas have shown consistent improvement

164
during 2022-23, surpassing the pre-pandemic January-March 2020 level.

Organised sector employment, as measured by payroll data, indicated a recovery in job creation in FY2023. The
average net subscribers added to Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) per month increased to 11.5
lakh in 2022-23 from 10.2 lakh in 2021-22, signaling an improvement in formal employment opportunities. The
various alternate employment indicators also showed steady improvement in employment conditions during
FY2023. The purchasing managers’ index for employment showed continued uptick in payroll hiring in both
manufacturing and services sector.

Improving Education Levels and Increasing Per Capita Income

India has witnessed substantial improvement in education levels both, in higher education as well as school
education. India’s education index, which is an indicator of school education, exhibited a growth of 46% in the
last two decades. In addition, there has been considerable improvement in the quality of higher education in India.

Improvement in overall education level leads to better job prospects and enhancement in standard of living. With
improvements in socio-economic parameters, India’s per capita gross national income (“GNI”) has also increased
at a CAGR of over 8% over FY 2013-14 to 2020-22, which in turn is expected to drive demand for real estate
development.

Nuclearization of families creating need for housing

India has been witnessing a reduction in overall household size in the past few decades. The trend is likely to
continue further. This is primarily because of the increase in the nuclearization of the families. With the change
in family dynamics towards a nuclear set-up more households are getting added and hence consumption is
increasing, which in turn fuels the demand for housing.

The following graph sets forth the average household size for select Indian cities:

The figure above shows the trends in the average household size of Tier 1 cities in India. It can be observed that
there is a reduction in the average household sizes in almost all the cities. Bangalore has the least average
household size followed by Chennai. The average household size in many of the Tier I cities is now close to 4.
Reduction in average household size further leads to an increase in demand for housing.

Government reforms leading to higher transparency and stakeholder interest

166
In order to address the challenges confronted by residential real estate and improve transparency in the sector, the
government introduced slew of measures at regular intervals. This has formalised and consolidated the sector to
a large extent. Some of the key measures undertaken are outlined below:

A. Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA)

Real Estate Regulation and Development Act came into effect from May 2016. The Act was aimed to usher
transparency, financial discipline, and accountability in the real estate sector. This was done to increase the
confidence level of the buyers and prevent the developers from willful misuse of funds that lead to a delay in
project execution. The reform came with key tenets that struck a chord with buyers as well as other stakeholders
of the real estate sector. Although RERA came into force to favor the buyers, it was State governments’
responsibility to implement it in true spirit.

B. Reduction in GST rates

Goods & Services Tax is one of the biggest tax reforms of India that came into force from 1st July 2017 to remove
multiple taxations which seek to transform India with its one nation, one market and one tax principle. In the real
estate sector, ready-to-move-in properties and land are exempt from GST. Initially, for ongoing projects, GST
charged at the rate of 8% for affordable housing (under 60 sq m in non-metropolitan cities/towns and 30 sq m in
metropolitan cities) and 12% for projects other than affordable with the provision to receive ITC. Post 1st April
2019, the GST rates on under-construction properties have been lowered. As per the new rates, under-construction
properties attract 5% GST without a provision to receive an input tax credit (ITC). Homebuyers of affordable
housing (Under construction properties priced up to INR 45 Lakhs qualified as affordable housing projects for the
purpose of GST relief both in metro as well as non-metro cities), are levied with only 1% GST without an ITC
benefit.

Cost of ownership came down due to the reduction in GST rates which is likely to boost the absorption in the
affordable segment.

B. Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Amended Act 2016

The objective of the Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Amended Act 2016 (“Benami Act”) was to curb the use
of unaccounted cash transactions associated with properties and bring transparency in the real estate sector. While
the Benami Act is still in nascent stage of implementation to estimate the impact on the overall real estate sector,
it is likely to improve transparency and increase institutional investments in future.

Maharashtra Government Initiatives and Regulatory Changes with its impact on Residential Real Estate
(For the period 2020 – 2022)

Reduction in stamp duty

In order to revive demand in the real estate sector, the Government of Maharashtra reduced the stamp duty of
properties from 5% to 2% from September 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020, and from 5% to 3% from January 1,
2021, to March 31, 2021. The stamp duty cut boosted sales in Mumbai with property registrations increasing
threefold in December 2020 as compared to December 2019.

Though the stamp duty increased from 2% to 3% from January to March 2021, property registrations in Mumbai
witnessed healthy sales during the period as well with March 2021 property registrations almost matching the
registrations of December 2020.

With the increase in stamp duty to its original value of 5% from April 2021, the registrations witnessed a drop;
however, the number of registrations were still healthy showing an overall recovery in the residential market of
Mumbai.

Covid’s 2nd wave impacted the registrations in April and May 2021. However, subsequent to increasing
relaxations on mobility, sales started recovering from June 2021 onwards and witnessed a strong rebound in July-
September 2021 despite being a seasonally weak quarter on account of monsoons. The onset of festive period led
to a further increase in registrations for the period October 2021 to December 2021. Further, Q1 CY 2022
witnessed healthy registrations especially in March 2022 as stamp duty was to rise from by 1% due to introduction

167
of 1% metro cess from April 2022. As a result of this, Q2 CY 2022 and Q4 CY 2022 witnessed a slight reduction
in registrations. In Q1 CY 23 the registration number has increased to 31,836.

50% discount in premiums for Builders by Maharashtra Government

The state government in January 2021 issued a Government Resolution (GR) by slashing real estate premiums
paid by builders by 50%. According to the GR, builders need to pay premiums based on 2019 ready reckoner
(RR) rates or the 2020 rates whichever is higher. All real estate premiums and charges are calculated on the basis
of RR rates. Developers who opted for the 50% reduction in premiums need to pay the entire stamp duty when
they sell flats to buyers. Builders need to give an undertaking to the local bodies that they will pay the entire stamp
duty from home buyers. The scheme was valid till December 2021 and was extended till March 2022.

Complete waiver of Property Tax for Mumbai homes measuring up to 500 sq. ft.

The state cabinet approved the proposal to waive off property tax for 1.61 million flats of up to 500 square feet
in Mumbai and suburbs. It will be applicable for the flats in BMC jurisdiction. Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray
had on January 1, 2022, announced waiver of entire property tax for the smaller houses below the size of 45.45
sq. mt. or 500 sq. ft

C. Demonetization

The Government of India banned all INR 500 and INR 1,000 currency notes in November 2016, to curb black
money and check the circulation of fake currency. In the long term, this reform along with RERA has helped in
organising the real estate sector, resulting in more institutional inflows in the sector.

KEY TRENDS IN INDIAN REAL ESTATE SECTOR

Consolidation leading to higher share of branded players

The Indian real estate sector has witnessed consolidation in the past few years. With the implementation of RERA,
the financially weak developers were not able to adhere to compliance norms and were, therefore, either going
out of business or consolidating with larger players. The liquidity crisis following the ILFS crises further worsened
the situation for such developers, which resulted in an increase in the share of new launches by branded
developers. According to Anarock, the share of new launches by tier-1 developers increased from approximately
41% in 2015 to approximately 56% in 2018, which further increased in 2019 on account of the liquidity crisis.

The following graph sets forth percentage decline in the number of developers in select Indian cities between 2012
and 2019:

-52% Noida
-54% Mumbai

According to Anarock, the consolidation of developers is likely to continue post the COVID-19 pandemic, with
many weak players ceasing to exist as the country emerges from this pandemic.

Branded tier-1 developers are witnessing strong double-digit growth. It is likely that in the near to medium term
consolidation will further accelerate and listed players will see disproportionate growth vis-a-vis the industry.

Changing Affordability Index

As per a report by HDFC, dated 2nd August 2021, government’s support at policy level and increase in household
income have improved the overall affordability levels to best in last two and a half decades. The increase in
household income with almost steady levels of the ticket prices have resulted in increasing the affordability of
housing units. The affordability ratio has improved from 22 in 1995 to 3.2 in 2022. A lower affordability ratio
implies that there is higher affordability. The following graph sets forth housing affordability trend:

Housing finance penetration witnessed improvement in 2020. The trend of housing finance penetration in urban
areas suggests that urban areas will likely have a relatively greater share of future growth in housing finance
almost reaching 50% of the total population.

Positive impact of COVID-19 on housing and workplace demand

Revival in the real estate in the backdrop of economic recovery and demand

The residential segment was quick to pick momentum in the last two quarters of 2020 in the backdrop of growing
homeownership sentiment, which was accentuated by the exigencies of the COVID-19 pandemic. This pent-up
demand was further accelerated by ongoing discounts and offers, low home loan interest rates, and limited period
of stamp duty cuts in states such as Maharashtra. On account of rising sales, developers released new supply into
the market leading. As compared to 2020, new supply in Top 7 cities has increased by 84% in 2021 and has almost
tripled in 2022 showing that there is an overall recovery in the Indian Real Estate market.

Preference towards large, branded players with a proven track record

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed buyer preferences towards risk freelow risk investments. Developers with
the ability to complete projects on time and with the least execution risk are preferred even if the property is
relatively high priced. On account of the liquidity crunch being faced by smaller developers as well as a shift in

170
buyers’ preference towards large, branded developers, consolidation is likely to take place further in the real estate
sector. Financially strong and organised players are expected to have a majority of the market share in the coming
years.

Housing demand at an inflection point

Apart from the structural longer-term drivers, housing demand is likely at the cusp of a cyclical inflection point
which could potentially see a sustained volume as welland pricing growth in the near to medium term. This is on
account of:
• Sentiment changes due to forced lockdown and continued WFH and online schooling towards functional
and flexible homes that can accommodate working spaces.
• Increase in affordability as the ratio of the home loan payment to income has been reducing over the
years
Narrowing of the gap between rental yield to home loan rates increases the preference for purchasing a
home over renting

 During the initial months of the COVID-19 pandemic (i.e., April and May 2020), occupiers were
adapting to the work-from-home culture. During the period from July to August 2020, select financial
institutions and manufacturing occupiers reconsidered working from office for better employee output.
While work-from-home has certain positives such as saving travel time, occupiers have experienced
some negatives as well such as connectivity issues. Accordingly, Anarock expects work-from-home and
work-from-office to co-exist.
 Grade-A developers have witnessed stable rent recovery rates from Q3 2020 up to H1 FY 23. Although
the work-from-home culture tends to consolidate demand for office space, the COVID-19 pandemic has
resulted in demand for larger office space per employee.
 Commercial buildings are required to comply with strict health and safety guidelines, which is expected
to result in a shift towards more tech-enabled buildings to counter any safety and security issues in future.
Grade-A developers are in a better position to comply with such strict health and safety guidelines.
 For a large metropolitan city such as Mumbai, decentralization of work-centres is inevitable. The
COVID-19 pandemic has further accentuated this requirement. New townships in the suburban areas of
large cities have seen eventual development of office spaces within such townships. Hiranandani Gardens
in Mumbai, Lodha Palava in the MMR, Magarpatta City in Pune, Mahindra World City in Chennai and
New Town in Kolkata are few such examples.
 Recently, office occupiers in the MMR have been exploring to set-up offices in proximity to the
residential hotspots.
The occupiers are benefitting on three fronts:

I. Rents in the suburban micro-markets are low as compared to central and secondary business districts.
II. Large developers have quality developments with modern amenities.
III. Employees can increase productivity by saving travel time.

OTHER OBSERVATIONS IN INIAN REAL ESTATE AND HOUSINF FINANCE SECTOR

Home loan rates rising post COVID-19 pandemic

The RBI reduced the repo rate by 115 basis points from February 2020 to May 2020 from 5.15% to 4%, which
resulted in a reduction in the home loan interest rates. This, along with an increase in household income coupled
with steady ticket prices increased the affordability of residential units. However, RBI has been increasing the
repo rates since then and the repo rate has been increased to 6.5%, which has adversely impacted the home loan
rates. In June 2023, the RBI kept the repo rate unchanged at 6.5% on account of the easing of retail inflation and
the potential for further decline, indicating the effectiveness of previous policy rate actions.

With increasing property prices in last 4 quarters coupled with increasing home loan rates, rental yield has
marginally reduced. The net cost of home ownership over rental yield, adjusted for tax incentives on home loans,
has increased in FY 2023 as compared to FY 2022.

The following graph sets forth home loan interest rates versus rental yield from residential properties:

Credit given to developers by banks have increased from INR 2.3 Lakh Crores in FY 2019-20 to INR 2.36 Lakh
Crores in FY 2020 – 21 noting an overall approximate increase of INR 0.6 lakh crores i.e., ~3% increase. However,
Credit given to developers by NBFC’s have witnessed a reduction from INR 1.01 Lakh Crores in FY 2019-20 to
INR 0.81 Lakh Crores in FY 2020-21 i.e., ~20% reduction.

Clearly the dramatic fall in incremental credit flowing from banks & NBFCs to the developers meant that most of
the tier-2 unbranded developers unable to continue the existing projects as well as launching new projects. These
tier-2 developers along with the financial institutions who supported them earlier are now looking at the branded
and stronger tier-1 developers to rescue those projects by taking over the existing projects and/or tie-up for their
new land parcels.

OVERVIEW OF INDIAN RESIDENTIAL MARKET

INDIA RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE TRENDS 2016 TO H1 2023

 In last six to seven years, the real estate sector in India has witnessed several changes because of
demonetization, the liquidity crisis and the implementation of RERA and GST.
 Despite the spiraling COVID-19 pressure across the country, the Indian residential sector made a significant
comeback in 2021 with absorption rebounding to 171% of the corresponding period in 2020. In 2019, the
absorption was recorded at 2.61 lakhs units which depicts that 2021 absorption has attained ~90% of the
absorption recorded in 2019. This clearly demonstrated a steady recovery as compared to 2020. The Mumbai
Metropolitan Region (“MMR”), Pune, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, the National Capital Region (“NCR”),
Chennai and Kolkata (“Top Seven Indian Markets”) recorded absorption of approximately 2.37 lakh units
in 2021 as compared to 1.38 lakh units in 2020. Further, the absorption numbers in 2022 have improved to
3.65 Lakh units. In Q1 2023 the absorption already is about 1.13 Lakh units and at same rate it stands to beat
2022 Absorption Levels.
 New launches have jumped by 185% - from 127,959 units in 2020 to 236,693 units in 2021. The same is
almost in line with the launches recorded in 2019. There has also been an improvement in the 2022 numbers
where the total launches are 3.58 Lakhs units. In H1 2023 there are 2.12 Lakhs launched units.

2021(638,192 units) as compared to unsold inventory in 2020 (638,015 units). This has witnessed a slight
reduction in 2022 with 630,954 units on account of higher absorption levels as compared to the launches.

TRENDS IN MUMBAI RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE (MMR LEVEL)

MUMBAI METROPOLITAN REGION (MMR) –INTRODUCTION

Mumbai is the commercial and financial capital of India and houses the two stock exchanges which account for
most of the securities traded in the country. With the busiest single-runway airport in India and two large seaports,
Mumbai accounts for over half of India’s foreign trade, generates 6% of India’s GDP and one-third of the
country’s tax revenues. Home to a flourishing media and film industry, the city also serves as the entertainment
capital of the country. Its economic base is well diversified with a large presence of Banking and Financial
Services Industry (BFSI), engineering, services, and IT/ITeS sectors, and logistic companies.

Mumbai is one of the biggest real estate markets in India. It has various micro-markets along with Mumbai City,
suburbs, extended suburbs and neighboring areas such as Thane and Navi Mumbai. With the recent infrastructure
projects completing such as Mono and Metro, Mumbai witnessed significant physical infrastructure
improvements. Upcoming infrastructure projects (coastal roads, metros, etc.) in the medium term will improve
the connectivity further.

DEMAND DRIVERS FOR HOUSINF IN MMR

Mumbai has a diverse base of industries and small and medium businesses. Mumbai creates employment
opportunities across the value chain for both front and back offices. On a qualitative basis, the announcement of
addition of office space (employment generation) in the city-centric and the suburban areas affect the select
residential pockets of suburban areas (e.g., Ghodbunder Road) with a lag of 2 – 3 years.

Extended nodes of Mumbai such as Panvel, Bhiwandi, Kalyan have seen growth in logistics, e-commerce and
warehousing activities. The workforce working there has contributed to the housing demand for mid and
affordable category at the projects in Extended Eastern Suburbs, Thane & Navi Mumbai

Employment Generation

MMR is an employment engine for the country, both in the organized and unorganized industries. Employment
from the existing grade-A office spaces in Mumbai has a direct impact on demand for housing in MMR and it is
largely contributed to the organized sector. Employment generated from unorganized sectors does have an impact
on the housing demand, especially in the suburban areas.

Existing, Proposed & Upcoming Key Infrastructure Projects in MMR

Mumbai being the financial hub of India is well connected with all the tier II & III cities in the country by air,
road, and rail networks. Road communications with hinterlands comprise of four National Highways converging
at Mumbai. These provide access to Pune (NH4), Goa (NH17), Gujarat (NH8), Nashik, Indore and Delhi (NH48).

Several infrastructure projects are underway in Greater Mumbai and MMR so as to achieve long-term
sustainability and increase the carrying capacity of the city’s transportation networks and thus improve traffic and
transportation capacity in Mumbai Metropolitan Region both capacity wise and quality wise. Some of the major
projects are listed below.

Mumbai Metro Network (Underground + Elevated):


Mumbai is popular for its traffic snarls. To decongest Mumbai’s roads, the Mumbai Metro Railway Corporation
Limited (MMRCL) has already started the construction of Colaba-Bandra-SEEPZ corridor of Metro-3
project. This underground metro will prove to be a comfortable mode of transport. It will also lessen the
crowd on the roads as well as in the local trains of Mumbai. This system of the metro will connect the major
financial hubs in Mumbai such as Nariman Point, Fort, Worli, Lower Parel, BKC, Goregaon, etc. and also
provide connectivity to the CSIA, SEEPZ, and MIDC. Many new real estate projects in Mumbai are now
coming up in the vicinity of these localities where the metro line will provide connectivity. The underground
metro will reduce travel time considerably and also provide comfort and security while traveling. Upon
completion of all metro lines, the core system will comprise 13 high-capacity metro railway lines stated
below.

As of December 2022, Mumbai metro consisted of 1 operational line (Line 1) , 2 partial operational lines (Line
2A and 7) and 4 lines under various stages of construction. The entire stretch of Metrol Line 2A and 7 have
become operational from 20.01.2023. Mumbai Monorail Project: Mumbai Monorail is a monorail system built as
part of a major expansion of public transport in the city. The first phase of Line 1 that connects Chembur to Wadala
Depot is already operational since February 2014 and consists of 7 stations in the neighborhood of the Harbour
railway line locations. The second phase of Line 1 consists of 11 stations from Wadala Depot to Jacob Circle and
the work for this phase was completed in February 2019 end.

Mumbai Trans Harbour Link:

The project consists of the construction of an 8-lane bridge across the deep sea through the Mumbai Harbour and
connects to local road networks through approaches/interchanges at both ends, i.e. at the Sewri end and the Nhava
end. Mumbai Trans Harbour link, also called as the Sewri Nava-Sheva Trans Harbour Link is a 21.8 km freeway
bridge which will connect Mumbai will Navi Mumbai. The eastern suburbs of Mumbai will connect with the
mainland Mumbai through a 16.5 km sea bridge. The freeway will also be connected to the Mumbai Pune
Expressway and Western Freeway. This has had a positive boost to the real estate in Mumbai. This trans Harbour
Link will reduce the commuting time from Churchgate to Navi Mumbai from 40 minutes to 20 minutes. This also
means that there will be super-fast connectivity to Navi Mumbai and Konkan region. With so many upcoming
projects in Navi Mumbai, the demand for real estate in pockets like Panvel has seen a huge rise. The project
construction started in April 2018 and estimated to be completed and operational by November 2023

Western Freeway Sea Link Project:

The proposed Western Freeway is a north-south sea link connecting the Mumbai Western Suburbs and the island
city.
▪ Bandra-Worli Sea Link: The Phase-I of the project, known as the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, was completed in
June 2009, and links Bandra in the north and Worli in the south.
▪ Worli to Haji Ali Sea Link: The Phase-II of the project is at the proposal stage designed to link Worli to Haji Ali
and shall cover 6.5 Km.
▪ Versova–Bandra Sea Link: The Phase-III of the project consist of is a 17.17 km underconstruction bridge which
the suburb of Andheri to the Bandra-Worli Sea Link in Bandra, as part of the West Island Freeway.

Navi Mumbai International Airport:

A new airport is also proposed to be developed in the Kopra – Panvel area through PPP mode. The proposed
project has been continually delayed due to serious environmental issues related to mangroves and diversion of
the river channel. The project has now received some key (particularly environmental clearance) permissions.
This airport will make Mumbai the first city in India to house more than one airport. This airport still comes under
the under construction projects in Mumbai with construction already in process for Phase I and is expected to
complete by December 2024. After the completion of Phase I the airport is expected to handle 10 million
passengers per annum. Recently, the project is taken over by Adani Group. As soon as the foundation stones of
the project were laid, the demand for property in Navi Mumbai surrounding the airport saw an increase. The
construction for the airport is expected to generate more than 0.4 million direct and indirect jobs in Navi Mumbai.
As the development prospects are high, many real estate builders in Mumbai are planning to come up with real
estate projects in Navi Mumbai.

Coastal Road, Mumbai:


The Coastal Road is an under construction 8-lane, 29.2-km long freeway that would run along Mumbai's western
coastline connecting Marine Lines in the south to Kandivali in the north which is divided into 2 phases. Phase I -
9.98 km section from Princess Street Flyover at Marine Lines to the Worli end of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link
(BWSL) which is under construction. Phase II - 19.22 km road between the Bandra end of the BWSL and
Kandivali, will be constructed by MSRDC which is proposed. The phase includes the 9.5 km Versova-Bandra
Sea Link.

Excellent Social Infrastructure

Locations in Mumbai and surrounding areas provide one of the best healthcare in the country, best education
opportunity, retail, recreational infrastructure. These aspects increase the quality of life & contribute to Housing
demand.

Improved Disposable Income

Higher disposable income of the working professionals in MMR with steady residential prices has contributed to
the residential demand in MMR.

Family Expansion

Family expansion/nuclear family trends have generated the demand for housing in the same or neighbouring
submarkets from the current place of residence.

Investment Activity

Some demand from the investor community to invest into residential real estate has helped in improving the
overall housing demand in MMR.

Various Schemes by the Developers

Further, there are various schemes launched by Developers which include a range of freebies, cash discounts,
stamp duty and GST waivers, 10:90 schemes, 5:95 schemes etc. which has further boosted the demand of housing
in MMR.

SUPPLY, ABSORPOTION, UNSOLD INVENTORY AND PRICING TRENDS IN MMR-2017 TO 2023 (Q1)

Supply & Absorption Trends

 Post 2017, absorption of units grew steadily and outpaced supply of units. In 2020, the units launched were
lower than the units sold.
 Until Q3 2020, only select developers were launching projects with high inventory size in MMR and the
buyers who visited sites before the lockdown were going ahead with their buying decision.
 Q4 2020 was better than earlier quarters, on the back of the festive season, low interest rates and an improving

SUPPLY, ABSORPTION AND PRICING OUTOOK FOR MMR-2023 to 2026

Supply & Absorption Outlook

The annual absorption in MMR in 2022 has been 50% more as compared to 2021 levels. While it is estimated that
the sector may not repeat its strong performance of 2022 in the near term, over a longer term in this decade the
absorption growth in volume terms in the sector is likely to largely mirror the real GDP growth with pricing
growth slightly above the inflation level. This will likely result in over 10% CAGR in value terms for the sector
over a longer term in the MMR. Supply is likely to be disciplined due to consolidation and keep pace with
absorption over the longer term. Post 2023, Anarock expects that there will be a gradual increase in absorption
until 2026. New launches in 2024 are likely to be almost 2 times as compared to 2021levels and are expected to
gradually increase year-on-year post 2023. On account of disciplined supply and healthy absorption levels, unsold
units overhang is expected to be less than 2 years from 2023 to 2026.

lockdown, Q4 2020 and Q1 2021 witnessed higher launches with healthy absorption levels due to stamp duty cut
by Government of Maharashtra. Though the 2nd wave of COVID pandemic struck in Q2 2021 in India, the
developers were launching projects in the considered markets with increased number of new launches in Q4 2021,
Q1 2022, Q2 2022 and Q3 2022. There was a reduction in absorption levels during Q2 2021; however, the
absorption levels gradually improved in Q3 2021, Q4 2021, Q1 2022, Q2 2022 and Q3 2022. The absorption

MARKET SHARE OF TOP TEN DEVELOPERS ON THE BASIS OF VARIOUS PARAMETERS

Supply (in units), Absorption (in units) and Absorption (in INR Crores)

There are select developers in the MMR residential space who have remained active throughout the real estate life
cycle. During the past decade, the real estate sector has witnessed several reforms including demonetization and
the implementation of GST and RERA. While these reforms have resulted in increased transparency, it has
significantly increased the compliance costs, resulting in smaller developers exiting the business and providing
an opportunity to branded developers to increase their market share.

Suraj Estate Developers Limited is one of the market leaders in combined markets of Mahim, Matunga, Dadar,
Prabhadevi, and Parel markets. The share of top ten developers in the selected residential sub-markets in terms of
supply (in units), absorption (in units) and absorption (in INR Crores) from 2016 to H1 2023 has been provided
below:

TRENDS IN COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE IN MUMBAI

Mumbai is one of India’s largest metropolitan cities and one of the world’s most densely populated cities. With
its robust contribution to India’s GDP, the tax revenues it generates for the country, it is indeed the city is the
financial capital of India. The city houses a diverse base of industries such as BFSI, manufacturing, IT/ITeS,
Media & entertainment, etc. The commercial real estate sector has played a significant role in facilitating the
required office infrastructure. As of Q1 CY 2023 , the MMR office market has a stock of 136.88 mn. square feet
of Grade-A office space, which is amongst the largest in India, and an overall vacancy rate of 15.5%. In addition
to Grade- A office parks, the city has substantial office space stock in form of ‘non Grade- A’ office buildings,
mix use buildings, and are recently in form of Grade- A strata office buildings.
Market cycles impact office markets as they do other asset classes Covid 19 pandemic impacted Mumbai’s office
market, which is evident in form of churn of tenants, consolidation of office space by occupiers, renewals of leases
at re-rated lower leases, increase in vacancy and deferred completion of new office parks, however, at the same
time,
Mumbai’s office market has also witnessed de-centralization of office neighbourhoods and emergence of office
buildings on ‘strata sale’ (wherein buildings are sold to end users or investors in floor wise manner, either in part
or in full) model.

213
During initial months of Covid- 19 pandemic, ‘work from home’ replaced ‘work from office’. Certainly, in the
short term, the office demand and the rents were impacted. However, on the back of a diverse occupier category
base that Mumbai office market serves, the impact was a little lower in comparison to the IT demand-driven cities
in India, which largely followed work from home model.
With the rapid vaccination drive by the Government of India and the continued tapering of the new cases, the
partial opening of offices and other recreational areas were allowed post June 2020 after first wave of Covid-19
and then post-June 2021 after the second wave.
The commencement of the mass transport modes the people’s movements gathered the pace. The re-opening of
the economy reduced the unemployment scenario and has positively contributed to the rising output levels as a
whole.

Despite the near-term market uncertainty, albeit the consensus is that the occupiers will follow a hybrid or blended
model of ‘work from home’ and ‘work from office’, the Mumbai office market’s medium to long-term outlook
remains bright on the back of the sector’s robust fundamentals and investment attractiveness. The strata sale
market in Mumbai is amongst the most active office markets in India.

During the last 2 to 3 years, two prominent trends have been recorded in Mumbai Office Market include:

a) Increased demand for flexible office spaces near home


Select large occupiers, companies from the software/technology sector, start-ups have seen renting flexible office
desks nearer to the residential hubs. This will help employees to work efficiently yet reduce the commute time.
The flexible office spaces are expected to provide cost-effective solutions.

214
b) Increased demand for the strata offices on strata format
While office leasing impacted by the second wave, demand for the strata sale demand is growing. During the past
2 to 3 years, various categories like professional services, consultants, financial advisors, SME manufacturers,
logistics were seen taking up the small offices on a purchase basis. The typical office sizes ranging between 500
– 2,000 sq. ft. of the leasable area that can house 4 to 20 employees have gained momentum. The central theme
is to work near home in an environment conducive to the business.

For the investors, small office spaces are generating a rental yield potential at about 7% with the upside capital
appreciation potential.

The Central Business District (CBD), Secondary Business District (SBD) Central (Lower Parel - Prabhadevi),
BKC, Andheri in Mumbai have an active market for the offices on strata sale model. Commercial real estate
witnessed a growing demand for boutique office spacesanother term popularly used for strata sale office buildings.

Prominent Developers in Mumbai who offer Grade- A office projects on strata sale model:

1) Macrotech (Lodha) Developers


2) Kanakia Spaces
3) Peninsula Land
4) Marathon Group
5) Wadhwa Group etc.

There is consistent demand for the office spaces offered on sale if the projects are by reputed developers, have
modern amenities, and are well located in terms of access points to residential neighbourhoods.

Below mentioned are a few examples in various submarkets of Mumbai that have seen consistent traction.

215
In upcoming quarters, more projects offering small offices on a strata sale model are expected to be launched to
cater to the growing demand for this category within the commercial office asset class.

REDEVELOPMENT PROPORTION IN OVERALL DEVELOPMENT IN COMBINED MARKETS AND ITS


COMPARISON WITH SURAJ ESTATE DEVELOPERS LIMITED

In MMR, a section of the supply of residential units originates from re-development projects. These projects may
originate from slum rehabilitation, MHADA layouts redevelopment, cessed buildings redevelopment or housing
societies redevelopment. In our estimation (note 1), the supply for the period of 2017 to Q12023 is approximately
52,000 units. The assumptions being a. on relative terms proportion of redevelopment projects will be more in
island city of Mumbai, and less in Mumbai suburbs, and even lesser in other parts of MMR excluding the
administrative jurisdiction of MCGM (Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai). This assumption is based on
the observation that the island city of Mumbai has more older buildings than other parts of MMR and has fewer
vacant land parcels to do development, b) Between western suburbs and eastern (central railway) suburbs
proportion of redevelopment projects will be lower in eastern suburbs owing to availability of industrial lands
getting converted into residential development, c) Rest of MMR has the least proportion owing to the age of
buildings being relatively lower and more availability of vacant land.

As per Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) data for year 2022-23, there are 387 buildings falling
under C1 category of dangerous and dilapidated buildings, out of which 321 buildings are private buildings and
the rest owned by MCGM. These buildings are potential market for redevelopment.

In Mumbai Metropolitan Region, and in jurisdiction of Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM)
Mumbai in particular, there are several old buildings which need redevelopment. Many of these old buildings fall
under “cessed buildings” as defined by MHADA. In island city of Mumbai alone (South Central Mumbai) as per
MHADA data there are 19,642 cessed buildings. By definition all of these buildings are constructed up to 30 Sept.
1969, which means as of June 2023, these buildings are more than 50 years old. Out of these, there are 16,502

216
buildings that are constructed up to 1 Sept 1940 meaning that they are more than 80 years old as of year 2023.
These buildings need redevelopment and thus are potential market for real estate developers.

Note 1: A high level estimation of supply of residential units originating from redevelopment projects in MMR
over last few years could be done with certain assumptions. This estimation is not representation or
documentation of actual data, but is only an estimation based on certain sample research and extrapolation of
sample data with certain assumptions. For this estimation we have excluded supply of units from SRA projects
and from MHADA layouts redevelopment.

Redevelopment projects in selected Sub-markets

Selected Residential sub-markets of Mahim, Matunga, Dadar, Prabhadevi, and Parel has been considered as
combined market.

From 2017 to H1 2023, there are a total of 270 projects that have been launched in the selected residential
sub-markets out of which 161 (~59.6%) projects are redevelopment projects. In the same period, Suraj Estate
Developers Limited launched 15 residential projects out of which 13 projects (~87%) are redevelopment projects.
Hence, the proportion of redevelopment projects launched by Suraj is approximately 8% of the total projects
launched in the selected residential market cumulatively from 2016 to H1 2023 which shows that Suraj Estate
Developers Limited is one of the market leaders in the redevelopment projects in those markets.

The table below shows the breakup of cumulative Supply and Absorption in New and Redevelopment projects

TRENDS IN COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE IN MUMBAI

OVERVIEW

217
Mumbai is one of India’s largest metropolitan cities and one of the world’s most densely populated cities. With
its robust contribution to India’s GDP, the tax revenues it generates for the country, it is indeed the city is the
financial capital of India. The city houses a diverse base of industries such as BFSI, manufacturing, IT/ITeS,
Media & entertainment, etc. The commercial real estate sector has played a significant role in facilitating the
required office infrastructure. As of Q1 CY 2023, the MMR office market has a stock of 136.88 mn. square feet
of Grade-A office space, which is amongst the largest in India, and an overall vacancy rate of 15.5%. In addition
to Grade- A office parks, the city has substantial office space stock in form of ‘non Grade- A’ office buildings,
mix use buildings, and are recently in form of Grade- A strata office buildings.

Market cycles impact office markets as they do other asset classes Covid 19 pandemic impacted Mumbai’s office
market, which is evident in form of churn of tenants, consolidation of office space by occupiers, renewals of leases
at re-rated lower leases, increase in vacancy and deferred completion of new office parks, however, at the same
time,

Mumbai’s office market has also witnessed de-centralization of office neighbourhoods and emergence of office
buildings on ‘strata sale’ (wherein buildings are sold to end users or investors in floor wise manner, either in part
or in full) model.

During initial months of Covid- 19 pandemic, ‘work from home’ replaced ‘work from office’. Certainly, in the
short term, the office demand and the rents were impacted. However, on the back of a diverse occupier category
base that Mumbai office market serves, the impact was a little lower in comparison to the IT demand-driven cities
in India, which largely followed work from home model.

With the rapid vaccination drive by the Government of India and the continued tapering of the new cases, the
partial opening of offices and other recreational areas were allowed post June 2020 after first wave of Covid-19
and then post-June 2021 after the second wave.

The commencement of the mass transport modes the people’s movements gathered the pace. The re-opening of
the economy reduced the unemployment scenario and has positively contributed to the rising output levels as a
whole.

On 5th May 2023 the WHO Director-General announced that ‘COVID-19 is no longer a public health
emergency of international concern.’ India has administered 220 million Covid-19 vaccine doses as of May
2023.

Despite the near-term market uncertainty, albeit the consensus is that the occupiers will follow a hybrid or blended
model of ‘work from home’ and ‘work from office’, the Mumbai office market’s medium to long-term outlook
remains bright on the back of the sector’s robust fundamentals and investment attractiveness. The strata sale
market in Mumbai is amongst the most active office markets in India.

During the last 2 to 3 years, two prominent trends have been recorded in Mumbai Office Market include:

a) Increased demand for flexible office spaces near home

Select large occupiers, companies from the software/technology sector, start-ups have seen renting flexible office
desks nearer to the residential hubs. This will help employees to work efficiently yet reduce the commute time.
The flexible office spaces are expected to provide cost-effective solutions.

b) Increased demand for the strata offices on strata format


While office leasing impacted by the second wave, demand for the strata sale demand is growing. During
the past 2 to 3 years, various categories like professional services, consultants, financial advisors, SME
manufacturers, logistics were seen taking up the small offices on a purchase basis. The typical office sizes
ranging between 500 – 2,000 sq. ft. of the leasable area that can house 4 to 20 employees have gained
momentum. The central theme is to work near home in an environment conducive to the business.

For the investors, small office spaces are generating a rental yield potential at about 7% with the upside capital
appreciation potential.

The Central Business District (CBD), Secondary Business District (SBD) Central (Lower Parel - Prabhadevi),

218
BKC, Andheri in Mumbai have an active market for the offices on strata sale model. Commercial real estate
witnessed a growing demand for boutique office spaces- another term popularly used for strata sale office
buildings.

In upcoming quarters, more projects offering small offices on a strata sale model are expected to be launched to
cater to the growing demand for this category within the commercial office asset class.

segment. We are now venturing into residential real estate development in Bandra sub-market.
Our focus area of operation is the South-Central region in Mumbai mainly consisting of Mahim, Matunga, Dadar,
Prabhadevi and Parel, as our expertise lies is in the redevelopment of tenanted properties under Regulation 33(7)
of the Development Control and Promotion Regulations (“DCPR”) in the Mumbai region. Since most of the land
parcels in the South Central Mumbai market are in the nature of redevelopment projects, our core competence lies
in tenant settlement which is a key element for unlocking value on such land parcels. We identify cessed/ non-
cessed properties with existing tenants, and tie up with the landlords of such tenanted properties by entering into a
development agreement or on outright purchase basis through conveyance deed. Our Company does not provide
any construction services on its own and is 100% dependent on third party contractors for the construction services

quality-conscious development and specialization in the redevelopment of tenanted properties. Majority of our
projects executed by us are on land owned by us or through development agreements with land-owners. Since
most of the land parcels in the South Central Mumbai market are in the nature of redevelopment projects, our core
competence lies in tenant settlement which is a key element for unlocking value on such land parcels. We identify
cessed/ non-cessed properties with existing tenants, and tie up with the landlords of such tenanted properties by

years provided good quality housing free-of-cost to the existing tenants/ occupants of redevelopment properties.

real estate market in terms of high realisation, aspirational value/premium product positioning and high demand
across multiple segments and price points. Mumbai’s position as the commercial capital of India, together with
the demographics of the Mumbai’s population, with a high-income, discerning customer base and an expanding

the construction phase. Such sales help reduce the need for construction finance and enable us to achieve optimal
returns on our projects. The following table sets forth information on our Ongoing Projects:

We are well positioned to leverage our established presence and longstanding operations in the South Central
Mumbai region to capitalize on the significant demand for real estate projects across various price points in sub
markets in this region. The South Central Mumbai real estate sub markets have high barriers to entry due to the
limited availability and high cost of land, the need for an expertise in tenant re-housing, regulatory and approval
processes required for the development of such projects. Our brand name, longstanding operations and extensive

228
experience in South Central Mumbai region provides us with significant opportunities in these attractive fast-
growing redevelopment markets.

Diversified portfolio encompassing product offerings across various price points in value luxury and luxury
segments

We have a diversified portfolio of residential developments, spread across price points, unit sizes and micro-
markets in the South Central Mumbai, catering to a wide spectrum of economic and demographic segments, from
value luxury to luxury residences. Our ability to cater to the needs of customer across income brackets through a
range of differentiated products offerings, supported by our technical and execution capabilities has enabled us to
successfully grow our business. We have developed a diversified portfolio of projects that includes redevelopment
projects as well as open plot projects, in the Value Luxury Segment and Luxury Segment from 1 BHK flats to 4
BHK flats.

Our residential projects include units with prices ranging from ₹10.00 million to ₹130.00 million in the South
Central Mumbai region for Value Luxury and Luxury Segments. Further, our projects are strategically located
within South Central Mumbai region. Our residential projects benefit from sea view and variety of amenities such
as clubhouse and landscaped garden, amongst others which appeal to our clients in Value Luxury and Luxury
Segments. Our residential projects are located in areas that are attractive and near to the commercial areas, railway
stations, bus stops, upcoming metro stations etc. In addition, higher growth in residential demand is expected in
the South Central Mumbai region, due to improved connectivity, higher affordability and development of
alternative commercial centres.

The diversity in our portfolio of projects, created by our range of offerings and price help us to cater different
segments of the market and diversify our risk of dependence on a particular segment.

Strong expertise in tenant settlement in the redevelopment projects

From 1986 to 2023, we completed 42 residential and commercial projects out of which 41 projects (97.62%) are
redevelopment projects. Since most of the land parcels in the South Central Mumbai market are in the nature of
redevelopment projects, tenant settlement is a key element for unlocking value on land parcels. Due to our track
record of providing good quality free-housing to the tenants/ occupants we are the preferred developer even
amongst the tenants in the South Central Mumbai region. We have a dedicated in-house team focusing on various
requirements and concerns of tenants. As on October 31, 2023, we have redeveloped houses for 1,011 tenants
free-of-cost under regulation 33(7) of the Development Control and Promotion Regulation, 2034 (“DCP
Regulations”) thereby simultaneously freeing considerable areas of FSI for commercial development.

Marketing and sales strategies

Our experienced marketing and sales team track market trends which enables us to position our projects
appropriately in terms of location and price points, and creates a cohesive marketing strategy designed to secure
and build brand value and awareness. Some of these strategies include exclusive code names for each project,
large public launches with a book-building approach, and the implementation of the concept of self-sustained
communities.

The primary focus of our marketing team is to collectively work towards identifying the target market groups and
leveraging promotional tools to attract the target group. Over the time, such initiatives have enabled us in creating
differentiated products and market our projects to our target customers for each project. We use differentiated
sales strategies and multiple approaches to sell our products. We have dedicated in-house sales teams focusing on
interaction with channel partners to drive walk-in at our sites (sourcing function) and the other focusing on deal
closures (closing function). We have an experienced customer care team who regularly interact with our customers
and are responsible for assisting them throughout the entire period from initial booking to handover of their homes.
This provides our customers with a one-point interface for any specific requirement or grievance they may have.

230
Our customer-centric approach includes comprehensive support to customers from enquiry stage right upto
possession of units, as well as measures implemented to address any customer grievance. Our continued
engagement with customers even subsequent to sale of units and delivery of possession has resulted in further
strengthening of our brand and customer goodwill. Customer goodwill also translates into significant customer
referrals that further strengthens our strong brand and sales network resulting in increased sales. In addition, our
extensive presence across various sub markets within the South Central Mumbai region further strengthens our
brand recall across the region

Experienced promoters and management team

Our Company was founded by our Promoter, Rajan Meenathakonil Thomas, who is the Chairperson and
Managing Director with over thirty six (36) years of experience in various aspects of real estate business. The
leadership team also consists of Rahul Rajan Jesu Thomas, Whole-time Director with over sixteen (16) years of
experience in various aspects of real estate business along with other professionals, each having vast experience
across different industries and are instrumental in implementing our business strategies. Our board also includes
Non Executive Director, Sujatha R. Thomas and Independent Directors namely, Mrutyunjay Mahapatra, Sunil
Pant and Dr. Satyendra Shridhar Nayak, all of whom are qualified and experienced professionals and lead distinct
business aspects. For further information, see “Our Management” on page 279.

Our management team continues to focus on marketing and new growth areas in their respective segments. The
knowledge and experience of our Promoter and Whole-time Director, along with Key Managerial Personnel,
senior management and team of skilled personnel, provides us with a significant competitive advantage as we
seek to expand our capacities and product portfolio in our existing markets and new markets. We continue to
leverage the experience of our Promoter, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and senior management team to
further grow our business and strategically target new market opportunities. This experience enables us to
anticipate real estate trends, identify and develop projects in micro-markets with growing demand, and develop
projects that address and attract evolving customer preferences.

BUSINESS STRATEGIES

Enhance our leading market position in the South Central Mumbai region by leveraging our Upcoming
Projects

We continue to focus primarily on residential projects in the Value Luxury and Luxury Segments within select
micro-markets of the South Central Mumbai region by leveraging our brand, deep experience and a track record
of successful execution. In comparison as on October 31, 2023, we have Upcoming Projects with an aggregate
estimated carpet area for sale of about 7,44,149square feet and Land Reserves of 10,359.77 square meters.
Through the execution of these Upcoming Projects we intend to consolidate our leading market position in the
South Central Mumbai region. The South Central Mumbai region is a prime real estate market in the MMR region
in terms of its aspiration value / premium product positioning, higher realisation and stable demand for real estate
developments. In addition, higher growth in residential demand is expected in the South Central Mumbai region,
due to improved connectivity, higher affordability and development of alternative commercial centres. We further
intend to leverage our in-depth knowledge of these sub markets and continue to focus our expansion plans in the
South Central Mumbai across different price points and customer segments.

Continue to focus on redevelopment projects through asset light model

As on October 31, 2023, we have thirteen (13) Ongoing Projects and sixteen (16) Upcoming Projects, wherein 3
Upcoming Projects are based on asset light model aggregating to 10.34% of our total Projects. We aim to
strengthen our redevelopment project portfolio pre-dominantly through asset light model entering into
development agreements with housing societies and with landlords of properties on area sharing basis. Such an
approach will enable us to be more capital efficient and reduce our upfront land acquisition costs. Housing
societies and landlords collaborate with developers such as us due to our ability to secure financing, technical
expertise and project management skills. We are a partner of choice for such projects because of our strong brand
recall, diversified presence across price points, and ability to sell majority of units at launch and during
construction phase.

Our asset-light model or models by not acquiring land on ownership basis allow us to use our capital towards
quick and efficient development of such properties. The lower capital deployment on such joint development

231
projects will ensue interest cost savings which will augment the profitability of the Company. Further, our
Company can deploy the capital in a more efficient manner by taking up more projects within the limited capital
available with our Company.

We intend to follow this strategy in the South Central Mumbai region where we have a strong presence, and
expand our presence in other parts of the MMR region.

Continue to pursue our differentiated product offerings in value luxury segment.

The share of 1 BHK flats and compact 2 BHK flats in Value Luxury Segment housing in new launches continues
to increase and there has been relatively better demand from end users in these segments, resulting in better sales
volume and velocity. We therefore intend to further strengthen our presence in delivering value luxury 1 BHK
flats and compact 2BHK flats in South Central Mumbai region. We propose to achieve this by continuing to focus
on 1 BHK flats with ticket sizes ranging between ₹10.00 million and ₹20.00 million and flat size ranging between
300 square feet up to 500 square feet along with parking and other amenities. We are also developing compact 2
BHK flats, with ticket sizes ranging between ₹20.00 million and ₹30.00 million and flat size ranging between 500
square feet up to 800 square feet along with parking and other amenities.

Continue to expand Land Reserves in South Central Mumbai region and opportunistically build our position
in other sub markets within MMR region

We intend to take advantage of emerging consolidation opportunities in the real estate industry generated by
regulatory changes, such as RERA, and other market factors, by following a flexible strategy for land acquisition.
We intend to continue to evaluate various land acquisitions models, such as outright purchase, joint ventures, joint
development and development management to increase our market penetration across the various market
segments in which we operate. In particular, our strong execution record and customer relationships provide us
with the continued ability to source land in strategic locations and help us to continue to focus on and execute
projects. A significant portion of our Land Reserves has been acquired at a competitive cost in the past through
our research efforts. This helps us in predicting areas that are to be developed within the foreseeable future and
then selecting locations for our projects that lead to strong demand and faster appreciation of land. While areas in
and around South Central Mumbai region are expected to remain our primary focus, we are opportunity centric
and have evaluated and will continue to evaluate growth opportunities outside of our current focus area that is
Bandra sub-market, on a case by case basis.

Continue to selectively develop Commercial Projects in the South Central Mumbai region

We intend to continue to focus on the development of commercial spaces to enable us to create value through
complimentary asset classes. We have constructed and sold build-to-suit offices to institutional clientele such as
Saraswat Co-operative Bank Limited (Prabhadevi) and Clearing Corporation of India Limited (Dadar). To cater
to the increasing need of independent office buildings in the commercial segment, we are currently proposing a
16 storey commercial building situated on Tulsi Pipe Road, Mahim

BUSINESS OPERATIONS

We are among the prominent residential real estate developers, focused primarily on construction and
development of residential and commercial projects, in and around sub market of South Central Mumbai. We
have, for the purpose of describing our business, classified the description of our projects into the following
categories: (a) Completed Projects, (b) Ongoing Projects, (c) Upcoming Projects and (d) Land Reserves. We
believe that real estate development primarily involves nine distinct steps: (i) Land identification, feasibility and
acquisition, (ii) Concept design, (iii) Design and planning, (iv) Design development, (v) Regulatory approvals,
(vi) Vacating tenant and demolition of existing structure (in case of redevelopment), (vii) Project Execution, site
development and construction, (viii) Marketing and sales, and (ix) Completion and transfer.

The category of “Completed Projects” are those projects where the Company and/ or subsidiaries of the
Company and/ or associates/ joint ventures of the Company have completed development; and in respect of which
the occupancy/completion certificate, as applicable, has been obtained as of October 31, 2023.

The category of “Ongoing Projects” are those projects in respect of which (i) all title or development rights, or
other interest in the land is held either directly or indirectly by the Company/subsidiaries of the Company /
associates/ joint ventures of the Company; (ii) Development work is ongoing/started; and (iii) the requisite

232
approvals for commencement of development have been obtained as ofOctober 31, 2023.

The category of “Upcoming Projects” are those residential and/ or commercial projects where the land (or rights
thereto) has been acquired, the business plan of the project is being finalized, the design development and pre-
construction activities and the process for seeking necessary approvals for the development of the project or part
thereof has commenced. The construction and sales of the upcoming projects have not yet commenced as
ofOctober 31, 2023.

The category of “Land Reserves” comprises land on which any of the Company/subsidiaries of the
Company/associates/joint ventures of the Company (as applicable) owns development rights/MOU/similar
documents or where development right agreements are in the process of execution, but on which the
Company/subsidiaries of the Company/associates/joint ventures of the Company (as applicable) have not planned
any construction or development as ofOctober 31, 2023.

A majority of our Completed Projects, Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects are situated in South Central
Mumbai region in Mumbai, Maharashtra.

Key Business Partners

We have ongoing relationships with leading international and domestic entities for the planning, development and
maintenance of our projects. We have partnered with leading international and domestic firms that offer consultancy
services in architecture, interior design, master planning, landscape, urban design and building, to develop concepts
and designs for some of our projects. For certain projects, we have involved well-known architects and structural
consultants, including Sanjay Puri Architects, Vivek Bhole Architects Private Limited, JW Consultants LLP, Sterling
Engineering Consultancy Services Private Limited, Struct Bombay Consultants. We have on our panel well
established and experienced civil contracts including Fem Constructions (India) Private Limited and ACC India
Private Limited to carry out civil construction works relating to certain projects. Further, we have current and/ or past
associations with various financial institutions.

Key Process for Project Development

We have established a systematic process for land identification, feasibility and acquisition, designing and planning,
project execution and customer marketing.

Land Identification, Feasibility and Acquisition

One of the key factors in the real estate development industry is the ability to assess the potential of a location after
evaluating its demographic and economic trends. Our land acquisition process is overseen by our liaisoning team
along with inputs from our senior management. Once a potential development site has been identified, site visits and
feasibility studies/surveys are undertaken, which include detailed analysis of the following factors, among others:

 location, including frontage, surrounding developments and landmarks and views;


 size of the development site;
 potential end use of the site;
 land acquisition cost;
 regional demographics;
 gap analysis of current property development initiatives and market needs;
 financial viability of the proposed project;
 feasibility of construction and adequacy of support infrastructure;
 number of tenants/ occupants in the project site (in case of redevelopment);
 availability of utility services;
 title searches and related legal due diligence;
 market trends; and
 regulatory issues.

After conducting such analysis, our senior management makes the final decision with regard to the financial feasibility
of the acquisition and the scope of the projects to be developed on the proposed site.

After a decision is made to proceed with the acquisition of land or land development rights, we take necessary steps
to acquire the land or development rights. We enter into negotiations with the seller of land or land development rights
in order to reach a preliminary acquisition agreement, usually memorialised in a memorandum of understanding. Once
we have completed our preliminary due diligence on the land, we enter into final agreements to acquire the land.

Concept Design

An assessment report is discussed internally and inputs are provided by heads of internal departments such as sales,
marketing, finance, architecture and construction. Further, a project brief in text format is submitted to an architect
and the architect is responsible for developing the conceptual design of the development. The conceptual design
includes master-planning, landscaping and phasing of development with orientation of buildings. At the conceptual
design stage, detailed value engineering is done to evaluate criteria such as building design and layout, sub-soil

246
conditions, geological data, building system selection, site egress and ingress to arrive at the optimal design and
orientation of our projects. The final decision on the conceptualization of each project and the development of each
property is made by our senior management.

Design and Planning

We coordinate with international and domestic design firms and architects such as Sanjay Puri Architects, Vivek
Bhole Architects Private Limited, for our projects. Our Planning team is responsible for budgeting, planning,
contracting and tracking the execution of projects. In addition, we also engage other structural consultants for the
planning of our projects namely, JW Consultants LLP, Sterling Engineering Consultancy Services Private Limited,
Struct Bombay Consultants. The work performed by these third parties must comply with specifications provided by
us and, in all cases, are subject to our review. We emphasize on the use of advanced technologies such as computer
aided design software to ensure optimization of costs and space.

Design Development

The output of the concept design phase is a master plan with a broad description of the planned development in the
form of a presentation. The design development phase involves further detailing of the concept design. In this phase,
detailed drawings of the planned development with dimensions are prepared. At completion of the tentative detailed
design, the team focuses on detailed design decisions, such as specific building system design, specifications provided
by architects and corresponding performance requirement, site paving and grading, phasing and scheduling plans.
Upon finalization of the final design drawing, another set of drawings called “valid for construction drawings” are
prepared. The valid for construction drawings include minute design details, such as dimensions, wall thickness,
window dimensions, air conditioning connections and toilet piping, and are a blueprint of the proposed development.

Regulatory Approvals

While evaluating the feasibility of an area for the implementation of a project, it is imperative to understand the legal
regime governing land development at the relevant location, which varies from state to state. The approvals generally
required for the development of a property include approvals of building plans, layouts, approval from airport and fire
authorities for buildings above a stipulated height, environment approvals, and infrastructure facilities such as power
and water and, occasionally, approvals for conversion of agricultural lands to non-agricultural lands. In addition, with
the implementation of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, Maharashtra Housing and Area
Development Authority Act, 1976 there is a constantly evolving framework of approvals with respect to development
of land in India. We deploy personnel to specifically ensure compliance with such regulations. As per Maharashtra
Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) Regulation, we are required to obtain minimum 51% consent
of tenants/occupants (hitherto 70%) for which it is necessary to gain the confidence of the tenants/occupants and obtain
their irrevocable consents for cooperating with us as developers. Once the final no objection certificate from MBRRB
is received, we are entitled to approach Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) for obtaining building
plan approvals (IOD) for the scheme of redevelopment.

One of our strategies is to venture into the redevelopment of co-operative housing societies. We intend to obtain
tenders issued by such housing societies for redevelopment and after considering the feasibility of the project we will
submit our bid for approval of the housing society under the provisions of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies
Act, 1960.

The bidding process for co-operative housing society redevelopment projects is as below:

Under the Development Control and Promotion Regulations, 2034 (“DCPR, 2034”), development of the old buildings
belonging to co-operative housing societies, which are more than 30 years old are permitted to be developed under
DCPR 33 (7) (B). In view of the fact that such housing societies do not have financial capability of meeting the huge
financial cost for approvals and construction of the new buildings payment of rents for temporary alternate
accommodation, corpus, etc., such societies call for tenders, they advertise in the press. Alternatively, such societies
can approach us directly to redevelop their building/(s). Our Company has concluded such agreements for
247
redevelopment schemes with two co-operative societies in the recent past.

In the case of certain societies, they opt for bidding process for inviting tenders, such tenders are normally advertised
in the newspaper and sealed bids are called in terms of areas of rent towards alternate accommodation, corpus, etc. to
be offered to the members of the societies. The bids are generally finalized on the basis of the highest offer made in
terms of the area to the members of the society, corpus, rents etc. as well as reputation and financial capability of the
builder. In the open bid for the development of the particular housing society scheme, it is not necessary that our
Company will be the successful bidder. However, there are numerous such opportunities available for our Company
to seek alternate proposal from other co-operative housing societies.

Vacating tenant and demolition of existing structure (in case of redevelopment)

On receipt of building plan approvals and other statutory and regulatory approvals from the relevant authorities, the
existing tenants/occupants are provided temporary alternate accommodation outside the property by providing
premises on leave and license basis by us until the time the permanent alternate accommodation is ready and the said
tenants/occupants are put into possession thereof.

Project Execution, Site Development and Construction

Each project is led by a project head and construction team. The project planning and execution process commences
with the obtaining of requisite statutory and regulatory approvals, including environmental approvals, the approval of
building plans and layout plans.

We have a dedicated construction management team working on various projects that employs the best available
construction techniques including the use of aluminium shuttering in most of our recent projects. A quality assurance
team is present at every project site with on-site equipment necessary to carry out checks on all materials used in
construction. In order to assist our construction management team, we have installed Far Vision application, an
enterprise resource planning software, which enables the team to keep a constant check on the budgeted cost and
actual costs incurred. We have a strong information technology support system, using which we are able to track
inventory at different sites and improve our inventory management capabilities. We have a team of project engineers
who perform the functions of managing site development and construction activities, coordinating the activities of
third party contractors and suppliers, overseeing quality and cost controls; and ensuring compliance with zoning and
building codes and other regulatory requirements.

As part of our operations, our Company contracts with independent construction contractors for the construction of
our projects. Our Company does not provide any construction services on its own and is 100% dependent on third
party contractors for the construction services of its Projects. Our Company selects the third party construction
contractors based on their past performance, team size and cost. In preceding three years and three-month period June
30, 2023, we have availed construction services of ₹2,349.52 million, ₹2,377.56 million, ₹2,646.78 million and
₹834.42 million. For details, see “Risk Factor - Our Company does not provide any construction services on its own
and is 100% dependent on third party contractors for the construction services of its Projects. Any failure on their
part to perform their obligations could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows” on page

Marketing and Sales

Our experienced marketing and sales team track market trends which enables us to position our projects appropriately
in terms of location and price points, and creates a cohesive marketing strategy designed to secure and build brand
value and awareness. Some of these strategies include exclusive code names for each project and large public launches
with a book-building approach. We use differentiated sales strategies and multiple channels to sell our products.
Further, we undertake sales efforts through a combination of digital marketing and advertising in mass media, either
centrally from our head office or through our branch and site offices. We actively participate in real estate exhibitions
that are attended by potential home/ property buyers. We employ various marketing approaches such as launch events,
exhibitions, web marketing, direct and indirect marketing, as well as newspaper and outdoor advertising. We also
248
engage in digital marketing efforts in order to target customers. We also maintain a data base consisting of our existing
customers and prospective customers and undertake direct sales efforts through a combination of telephonic marketing
and electronic marketing. We also market our projects through our in-house sales teams and brokers. We have a
dedicated customer relationship team which serves our customers from the property booking stage till the final
delivery of the property.

We have dedicated in-house sales teams focusing on interaction with channel partners to drive walk-in at our sites
(sourcing function) and focusing on deal closures (closing function). For our residential projects, we typically follow
a pre-sale model, whereby we offer units for sale prior to completion. We generally receive up to 20% of the purchase
price as advance at the time of sale of flat and the balance consideration in installments subject to fulfilment of
construction linked milestones. We generally launch such projects and commence the sales process for a portion of
the total number of units to be sold around the time of commencing construction.

Completion and Transfer

Our execution team, in coordination with the architecture team, completes the processes required to achieve the
necessary compliance and statutory certifications for each site including with respect to completion, occupation, fire
safety, waste disposal, rain water harvesting and recycling of water. We convey the title of the properties to the
customers upon the completion of the project, and closure of the sales process as per applicable laws. We ensure the
entire consideration is paid to us prior to the transfer of title. After completion of any project, we generally hand over
the day-to-day management and control of the project to the association of apartment unit purchasers. In certain cases,
we also negotiate and arrange for annual maintenance contracts with equipment suppliers for rotation and mechanical
instruments and machinery at each property, including elevators.

Pricing

The prices of our units are determined and driven principally by market forces of supply and demand, and we normally
conduct the pricing exercise prior to pre-launch marketing of a project, and review the prices by considering various
factors on a periodic basis. We price our properties by reference to market rates for similar types of properties in their
locality. The prices of our properties will therefore depend on the location, and mix of properties we sell throughout
the development of a particular project and on prevailing market supply and demand conditions. Therefore, the prices
we may charge for our properties, are affected by various factors outside our control, including prevailing local
economic, income and demographic conditions, interest rates available to purchasers requiring financing, the
availability of comparable properties completed or under development, changes in governmental policies relating to
zoning and land use, changes in applicable regulatory schemes, and competition from other real estate development
firms. We consider the above mentioned factors in determining the price, cost of acquisition of the land or development
rights and final estimates of the construction costs, a premium, depending on the location of the project and facilities
provided, and prevailing market for similar developments in that segment.

Competition

We face competition from various national and regional real estate developers. Prominent listed developers in South-
Central Mumbai include Macrotech Developers (Lodha Group), Oberoi Realty, Hubtown Developers and D B Realty
(Source: Company Commissioned Anarock Report). We also face competition from various small unorganized
operators in the residential segment.

effect on our business prospects” beginning on pages 435 and 81, respectively.

Safety, Health and Environment

We are committed to complying with applicable health, safety and environmental regulations and other requirements
in our operations. To help ensure effective implementation of our safety policies and practices, at the beginning of
each project we identify potential material hazards, evaluate all material risks and institute, implement and monitor
appropriate risk mitigation measures. We endeavour to achieve no accidents at our project sites through employment
of internal safety professionals and adherence to our internal policy in this regard. We believe that accidents and
occupational health hazards can be significantly reduced through systematic analysis, risks control mechanisms and
training of management, employees, contractors and the labour force.

Insurance

Our operations are subject to hazards inherent to the real estate industry, such as accidents at work sites. We are also
subject to force majeure events such as fires, earthquakes, floods and explosions, including hazards that may cause
injury and loss of life, severe damage to and the destruction of property, equipment and environment. We obtain
building under construction policy for our sites under construction. We generally maintain insurance covering our
assets and operations at levels that we believe to be appropriate. We also ensure that our contractors obtain workmen
compensation insurance policy while carrying out any activities on our behalf.

Information Technology

We use information technology systems to enhance our performance and efficiency. We have fully implemented the
Far Vision application across the various business functions in our Company to integrate systems among our
departments, including engineering and accounting, and are also in the process of implementing a customer
relationship management software. We believe that this system will allow us to streamline our processes while
enhancing our monitoring and control functions.

- the resultant tax impact on above adjustments has been appropriately adjusted in deferred taxes in the
respective years to which they relate.

This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Consolidated Summary
Statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The
Consolidated Summary Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis.

The Consolidated Summary Statements are presented in Indian Rupees "INR" and all values are stated as INR million,
except when otherwise indicated.

2.2. Basis of consolidation

The Consolidated Summary Statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at
30th June 2023. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement
with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group
controls an investee if and only if the Group has:

• Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the
investee)
• Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
• The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights result in control. To support this presumption and
when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant
facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

• The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
• Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
• The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights
• The size of the group’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of the holdings of the other
voting rights holders.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes
to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control
over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses
of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Consolidated Summary Statements from the
date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Consolidated Summary Statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other
events in similar circumstances. If a member of the Group uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the
Consolidated Summary Statements for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments
are made to that Group member’s financial statements in preparing the Consolidated Summary Statements to ensure
conformity with the Group’s accounting policies.

319
The financial statements of all entities used for the purpose of consolidation are drawn up to same reporting date as
that of the parent company, i.e., year ended on 30th June. When the end of the reporting period of the parent is different
from that of a subsidiary, the subsidiary prepares, for consolidation purposes, additional financial information as of the
same date as the financial statements of the parent to enable the parent to consolidate the financial information of the
subsidiary, unless it is impracticable to do so.

Consolidation procedure:

a) Combine like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent with those of its
subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiary are based on the amounts of the assets and
liabilities recognised in the Consolidated Summary Statements at the acquisition date.

b) Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiary and the parent’s portion of
equity of each subsidiary. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill.

c) Eliminate in full intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions
between entities of the group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are recognised in assets,
such as inventory and fixed assets, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that
requires recognition in the Consolidated Summary Statements. Ind AS 12 Income Taxes applies to temporary
differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting from intragroup transactions.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the
parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a
deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their
accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income,
expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.
If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:

• Derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts at the
date when control is lost
• Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
• Derecognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
• Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
• Recognises the fair value of any investment retained
• Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss
• Recognise that distribution of shares of subsidiary to Group in Group’s capacity as owners
• Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or transferred
directly to retained earnings, if required by other Ind ASs as would be required if the Group had directly
disposed of the related assets or liabilities

The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on going concern basis. The accounting policies are applied
consistently to all the periods presented in the Consolidated Financial Statement. These financial statements are
prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise indicated.

The financial statement has been prepared considering all Ind AS notified by MCA till reporting date i.e. 30th June
2023. The significant accounting policies used in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements are set out in Note
no. 3 of the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

3.1. Current and non-current classification

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet based on current/ non-current classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle.


• Held primarily for the purpose of trading
• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.

A liability is current when:


• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

320
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting
period.

The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current
assets and liabilities, respectively.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash
equivalents.

The operating cycle of the Group's real estate operations varies from project to project depending on the size of the
project, type of development, project complexities and related approvals. Assets and Liabilities are classified into
current and non-current based on the operating cycle.

3.2. Functional and presentation of currency

The financial statements are prepared in Indian Rupees which is also the Company’s functional currency. All amounts
are rounded to the nearest rupees in Millions.

3.3. Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell
the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability or in the absence of
a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal market or the most
advantageous market must be accessible to the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when
pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic
benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the
asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are
available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of
unobservable inputs

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the Consolidated Financial Statements are
categorized within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement as a whole. The fair value hierarchy is described as below:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted price in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly
Level 3 – unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the Consolidated Financial Statements at fair value on a recurring basis,
the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing
categorization at the end of each reporting period.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of
the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of fair value hierarchy.

Fair values have been determined for measurement and / or disclosure purpose using methods as prescribed in “Ind
AS 113 Fair Value Measurement”.

3.4. Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement
principles of Ind AS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets
and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities as on the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and reported
amounts of income and expenses for the periods presented. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on
parameters available when the Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared. Estimates and underlying
assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which
the estimates are revised and future periods are affected.

321
Key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have
a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year. Significant estimates and critical judgement in applying these accounting policies are described below:

3.4.1. Significant estimates

i) Revenue recognition and construction work in progress

• Revenue to be recognized, stage of completion, projections of cost and revenues expected from project and
realization of the construction work in progress have been determined based on management estimates which
are based on current market situations/ technical evaluations.

• In respect of real estate project (Construction work in progress) which are at initial preparatory stage [i.e.
acquisition of land / development rights], realization of the construction work in progress have been determined
based on management estimates of commercial feasibility and management expectation of future economic
benefits from the projects. These estimates are reviewed periodically by management and revised whenever
required.

The consequential effect of such revision in estimates is considered in the year of revision and in the balance future
period of the project. These estimates are dynamic in nature and are dependent upon various factors like eligibility
of the tenants, changes in the area, approval and other factors. Changes in these estimates can have significant
impact on the financial results of the Company and its comparability with the previous year however quantification
of the impact due to change in said estimates cannot be quantified.

ii) Defined benefit obligations

The cost of defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation along with leave salary are
determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions such as standard
rates of inflation, mortality, discount rate, attrition rates and anticipation of future salary increases. Due to the
complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to
changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

iii) Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured
based on quoted price in active markets since they are unquoted, their value is measured using valuation technique
including the discounted cash flow (DCF) model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets
where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values.
Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions
about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

3.4.2. Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies and estimation uncertainty

i) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s
recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered
impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

ii) Impairment of financial assets

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected credit
loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment
calculation based on industry practice, Company’s past history, and existing market conditions as well as forward
looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

3.5. Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation

Recognition and measurement

Properties plant and equipment are stated at their cost of acquisition. Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment
includes purchase price including non - refundable taxes and duties, borrowing cost directly attributable to the
qualifying asset, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its
intended use and the present value of the expected cost for the dismantling/decommissioning of the asset.

Parts (major components) of an item of property, plant and equipments having different useful lives are accounted as
separate items of property, plant and equipments.

322
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company. All other repair
and maintenance costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss as incurred.

Capital work-in-progress comprises of cost incurred on property, plant and equipment under construction / acquisition
that are not yet ready for their intended use at the Balance Sheet Date.

Depreciation and useful lives

Depreciation on the property, plant and equipment (other than capital work in progress) is provided on a written down
value (WDV) over their useful lives which is in consonance of useful life mentioned in Schedule II to the Companies
Act, 2013. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted
prospectively.

De-recognition

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is de-recognised upon disposal
or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition
of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is
included in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is de-recognised.

3.6. Leases

The determination of whether a contract is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the contract at the inception
of the lease. The contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract provide lessee, the right to control the use of an identified
asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. A lessee does not have the right to use an identified asset if, at
inception of the contract, a lessor has a substantive right to substitute the asset throughout the period of use.

The Company accounts for the lease arrangement as follows:

(i) Where the Group entity is the lessee

The Group applies single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short term leases and leases
of low value assets. On the commencement of the lease, the Group, in its Balance Sheet, recognize the right of use asset
at cost and lease liability at present value of the lease payments to be made over the lease term.

Subsequently, the right of use asset are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment
loss. Lease liability are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The lease payment made, are
apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of lease liability, and are recognised as expense in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.

Lease deposits given are a financial asset and are measured at amortised cost under Ind AS 109 since it satisfies Solely
Payment of Principal and Interest (SPPI) condition. The difference between the present value and the nominal value of
deposit is considered as prepaid rent and recognised over the lease term. Unwinding of discount is treated as finance
income and recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(ii) Where the Group entity is the lessor

The lessor needs to classify its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. Lease arrangements where the risks
and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset substantially vest with the lessor are recognized as operating lease. The
Group has only operating lease and accounts the same as follows:

Assets given under operating leases are included in investment properties. Lease income is recognised in the Statement
of Profit and Loss on straight line basis over the lease term, unless there is another systematic basis which is more
representative of the time pattern of the lease.

Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased
asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income.

Lease deposits received are financial instruments (financial liability) and are measured at fair value on initial
recognition. The difference between the fair value and the nominal value of deposits is considered as rent in advance
and recognised over the lease term on a straight line basis. Unwinding of discount is treated as interest expense (finance
cost) for deposits received and is accrued as per the EIR method.

3.7. Intangible assets and amortisation

Recognition and measurement

Intangible assets are recognized only if it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to asset will flow
to the Company and the cost of asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are stated at cost of
acquisition/development less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss if any.

Cost of an intangible asset includes purchase price including non - refundable taxes and duties, borrowing cost directly
attributable to the qualifying asset and any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended
use.

Intangible assets under development comprises of cost incurred on intangible assets under development that are not
yet ready for their intended use as at the Balance Sheet date.

Amortization and useful lives

Computer softwares are amortized in 3 years on Written Down Value (WDV). Amortisation methods and useful lives
are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively.

In case of Goodwill related to Business Combination, after initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any
accumulated impairment losses. In case such goodwill paid for acquisition is in relation to underlying real estate
project, impairment co-inside with the revenue recognition from the underlying project and accordingly impairment
provision is made in line with revenue recognition. Goodwill, other than related to underlying real estate project is only
tested for impairment.

In case of assets purchased during the year, amortization on such assets is calculated on pro-rata basis from the date of
such addition.

3.8. Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date for any indication of impairment based on
internal / external factors. An impairment loss is recognised wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its
recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of a) fair value of assets less cost of disposal and b) its value
in use. Value in use is the present value of future cash flows expected to derive from an assets or Cash-Generating Unit
(CGU).

Based on the assessment done at each balance sheet date, recognised impairment loss is further provided or reversed
depending on changes in circumstances. After recognition of impairment loss or reversal of impairment loss as
applicable, the depreciation charge for the asset is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying
amount, less its residual value (if any), on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. If the conditions leading to
recognition of impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased, impairment losses recognised are reversed to the
extent it does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined after considering depreciation /
amortisation had no impairment loss been recognised in earlier years.

3.9. Inventories

Inventory of finished units are valued at lower of cost or net realisable value.

Construction work in progress (CWIP) is valued at lower of cost or net realisable value. CWIP includes cost of land,
premium or fees paid in connection with acquisition of transferable development rights, sub-development rights, initial
costs for securing projects, initial premium paid on assignment/transfer of project, construction costs, cost of
redevelopment, settlement of claims relating to land, and attributable borrowing cost and expenses incidental to the
projects undertaken by the Company to project. In case of projects at initial stage, net realisable value is computed based
on the management estimate of future realisable value.

Construction costs include all cost related to development of real estate project and exclude all costs pertaining to selling
and marketing activities which are considered as indirect cost and are directly charged to the Statement of Profit and
Loss.

3.10. Revenue recognition

(i) Revenue from contract with customer

Revenue from contracts with customer is recognised, when control of the goods or services are transferred to the
customer, at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange
for those goods or services. The Company assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria in order to

324
determine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Company concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its
revenue arrangements. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is
recognised.

Revenue is recognized as follows:

(a) Revenue from contract with customers

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received/ receivable, taking into account contractually
defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government and is net of rebates
and discounts. The Group assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria to determine if it is acting as
principal or agent. The Group has concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue arrangements.

Revenue is recognised in the income statement to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will
flow to the Group and the revenue and costs, if applicable, can be measured reliably.

The Group has applied five step model as per Ind AS 115 ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ to recognise
revenue in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group satisfies a performance obligation and recognises
revenue over time, if one of the following criteria is met:

a) The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group’s performance as the
Group performs; or
b) The Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or
enhanced; or
c) The Group’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and the entity has an
enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

For performance obligations where any of the above conditions are not met, revenue is recognised at the point in
time at which the performance obligation is satisfied.

Revenue is recognised either at point of time or over a period of time based on various conditions as included in
the contracts with customers.

(ii) Finance income

Finance income is recognised as it accrues using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Finance income is
included in other income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

When calculating the EIR, the Group estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms
of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) but does not consider
the expected credit losses.

(iii) Revenue from lease rentals and related income

Lease income is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on straight line basis over the lease term, unless
there is another systematic basis which is more representative of the time pattern of the lease. Revenue from lease
rentals is disclosed net of indirect taxes, if any.

Revenue from property management service is recognised at value of service and is disclosed net of indirect taxes,
if any
.
(iv) Dividend income

Revenue is recognised when the Group’s right to receive the payment is established, which is generally when
shareholders approve the dividend.

(v) Other income

Other incomes are accounted on accrual basis, except interest on delayed payment by debtors and liquidated
damages which are accounted on acceptance of the Group’s claim.

3.11. Foreign currency transaction

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the
transaction. As at the Balance Sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated at closing exchange rate.
Exchange difference arising on settlement or translation of foreign currency monetary items are recognised as income
or expense in the year in which they arise.

325
Foreign currency non-monetary items which are carried at historical cost are reported using the exchange rate at the
date of transactions.

3.12. Employee benefits

• Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term
employee benefits and they are recognized as an expense at the undiscounted amount in the Statement of Profit and
Loss in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

• Post-employment benefits & other long term benefits

a. Defined contribution plan

The defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Company contributes fixed
contribution to a Government Administered Fund and will have no obligation to pay further contribution. The
Company’s defined contribution plan comprises of Provident Fund, Labour Welfare Fund Employee State
Insurance Scheme, National Pension Scheme, and Employee Pension Scheme. The Company’s contribution
to defined contribution plans are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the
employee renders the related service.

b. Post-employment benefit and other long term benefits

The Company has defined benefit plans comprising of gratuity and other long term benefits in the form of
leave benefits. Company’s obligation towards gratuity liability is unfunded. The present value of the defined
benefit obligations and other long term employee benefits is determined based on actuarial valuation using
the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount defined benefit obligation is determined by
reference to market yields at the Balance Sheet date on Indian Government Bonds for the estimated term of
obligations.

For gratuity plan, re-measurements comprising of (a) actuarial gains and losses, (b) the effect of the asset
ceiling (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability) and (c) the return on
plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the post-employment benefits liability) are
recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through
other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Re-measurements are not reclassified to
statement of profit and loss in subsequent periods.

Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of defined benefit plan are recognised when the curtailment
or settlement occurs.

Actuarial gains or losses arising on account of experience adjustment and the effect of changes in actuarial
assumptions for employee benefit plan [other than gratuity] are recognized immediately in the Statement of
Profit and Loss as income or expense.

3.13. Borrowing cost

Borrowing costs (net of interest income on temporary investments) that are directly attributable to the acquisition,
construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective asset till such time
the asset is ready for its intended use or sale. A qualifying asset is an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period
of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Ancillary cost of borrowings in respect of loans not disbursed are carried
forward and accounted as borrowing cost in the year of disbursement of loan. All other borrowing costs are expensed
in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest expenses calculated as per effective interest
method, exchange difference arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are treated as an adjustment
to the borrowing cost and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

3.14. Taxes on income

Tax expenses for the year comprises of current tax, deferred tax charge or credit and adjustments of taxes for earlier
years. In respect of amounts adjusted outside profit or loss (i.e. in other comprehensive income or equity), the
corresponding tax effect, if any, is also adjusted outside profit or loss.

Provision for current tax is made as per the provisions of Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are
recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary

326
differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
available against which those deductible temporary differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances can be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is
realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at
the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set
off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxation authority.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against
which such deferred tax assets can be utilized. In situations where the Company has unused tax losses and unused tax
credits, deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that they can be utilized against future taxable profits.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed for the appropriateness of their respective carrying amounts at each Balance Sheet
date.

At each reporting date, the Company re-assesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It recognises previously unrecognised
deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit allow deferred tax assets to be
recovered.

3.15. Cash & cash equivalent

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, bank balances, deposits with banks (other than on lien) and all short
term and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and are subject to an
insignificant risk of changes in value.

3.16. Cash flow statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, where by net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of
transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and
item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing
and financing activities are segregated.

3.17. Provisions, contingent liabilities, contingent assets

A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past event
and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable
estimate can be made. If the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-
tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risk specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the
provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but
probably will not require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect
of which likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

Provisions, contingent liabilities, contingent assets and commitments are reviewed at each balance sheet date.

3.18. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the net profit for the year attributable to the shareholders’ and weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average numbers of shares also includes fixed
number of equity shares that are issuable on conversion of compulsorily convertible preference shares, debentures or
any other instrument, from the date consideration is receivable (generally the date of their issue) of such instruments.

Diluted earnings per share is computed using the net profit for the year attributable to the shareholder’ and weighted
average number of equity and potential equity shares outstanding during the year including share options, convertible
preference shares and debentures, except where the result would be anti-dilutive. Potential equity shares that are
converted during the year are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, from the beginning of the year
or date of issuance of such potential equity shares, to the date of conversion.

3.19. Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than
financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value
of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly
attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised
immediately in profit or loss.

327
3.19.1. Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular
way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame
established by regulation or convention in the marketplace. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured
in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Classification of financial assets

Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost (except for debt
instruments that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition):

• the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash
flows; and
• the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All other financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating
interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future
cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate,
transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where
appropriate, a shorter period, to the gross carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as
at FVTPL. Interest income is recognised in profit or loss and is included in the “Other income” line item.

Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI

On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present
the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments.
This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially
measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising
from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ‘Reserve for equity
instruments through other comprehensive income’. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on
disposal of the investments.

A financial asset is held for trading if:

• It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or

• On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages together
and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

• It is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument or a financial guarantee. Dividends
on these investments in equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive
the dividends is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the
entity, the dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount of dividend can
be measured reliably. Dividends recognised in profit or loss are included in the ‘Other income’ line item.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Investments in equity instruments are classified as at FVTPL, unless the Company irrevocably elects on initial
recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income for investments in equity
instruments which are not held for trading.

Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses
arising on re-measurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates
any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘Other income’ line item. Dividend on
financial assets at FVTPL is recognised when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established, it is probable
that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the entity, the dividend does not represent a
recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount of dividend can be measured reliably.

Impairment of financial assets

328
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model based on ‘simplified approach’
for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no
significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets, expected
credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the twelve month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in
credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit
losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to
be recognized is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in statement of profit and loss.

De-recognition of financial asset

The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or
when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another
party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues
to control the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for
amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred
financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing
for the proceeds received.

On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum
of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss would have
otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.

On de-recognition of a financial asset other than in its entirety (e.g. when the Company retains an option to repurchase
part of a transferred asset), the Company allocates the previous carrying amount of the financial asset between the part
it continues to recognise under continuing involvement, and the part it no longer recognises on the basis of the relative
fair values of those parts on the date of the transfer. The difference between the carrying amount allocated to the part
that is no longer recognised and the sum of the consideration received for the part no longer recognised and any
cumulative gain or loss allocated to it that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit
or loss if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset. A
cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is allocated between the part that
continues to be recognised and the part that is no longer recognised on the basis of the relative fair values of those
parts.

3.19.2. Financial liability and equity instrument

Classification as debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in
accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity
instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of
its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue
costs. Repurchase of the Company’s own equity instruments is recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or
loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments.

Financial liabilities

All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or at FVTPL.

However, financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for de-recognition or when
the continuing involvement approach applies, financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company, and commitments
issued by the Company to provide a loan at below-market interest rate are measured in accordance with the specific
accounting policies set out below.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is either contingent consideration recognised
by the Company as an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS 103 applies or is held for trading or it is
designated as at FVTPL.

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:

• it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term; or

329
• on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages
together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
• it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading or contingent consideration recognised by the
Company as an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS 103 applies, may be designated as at FVTPL upon
initial recognition if:

• such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would
otherwise arise;
• the financial liability forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed
and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Company’s documented risk
management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis;
or
• it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and Ind AS 109 permits the entire
combined contract to be designated as at FVTPL in accordance with Ind AS 109.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognised
in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability
and is included in the ‘Other income’ line item.

However, for non-held-for-trading financial liabilities that are designated as at FVTPL, the amount of change in the
fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is recognised in other
comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other
comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, in which case these effects
of changes in credit risk are recognised in profit or loss. The remaining amount of change in the fair value of liability
is always recognised in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk that are
recognised in other comprehensive income are reflected immediately in retained earnings and are not subsequently
reclassified to profit or loss.

Gains or losses on financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments issued by the Company that are designated by
the Company as at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost

Financial liabilities that are not held-for-trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured at amortised cost at
the end of subsequent accounting periods. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently measured
at amortised cost are determined based on the effective interest method. Interest expense that is not capitalised as part
of costs of an asset is included in the ‘Finance costs’ line item. The effective interest method is a method of calculating
the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective
interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or
received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts)
through the expected life of the financial liability or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the gross carrying amount
on initial recognition.

Financial guarantee contracts

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder
for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of a debt
instrument.

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are initially measured at their fair values and, if not designated
as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at the higher of:

• the amount of loss allowance determined in accordance with impairment requirements of Ind AS 109; and
• the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in
accordance with the principles of Ind AS 18.

Commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest rate

Commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest rate are initially measured at their fair values and, if not
designated as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at the higher of:

• the amount of loss allowance determined in accordance with impairment requirements of Ind AS 109; and
• the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in
accordance with the principles of Ind AS 18.

Compound financial instruments

330
The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognised initially at fair value of a similar liability
that does not have an equity component. The equity component is recognised initially as the difference between the
fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly
attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and the equity components, if material, in proportion to their
initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to the initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is
not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition except on conversion or expiry.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a
currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to
realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Reclassification

The Company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition,
no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets
which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those
assets. Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The management determines change in the business
model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Company’s operations. A change in the
business model occurs when the Company either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its
operations. If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the
reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business
model. The Company does not restate any previously recognised gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) or
interest.

De-recognition of financial liabilities

The Company de-recognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged,
cancelled or have expired. An exchange between with a lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms
is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability.
Similarly, a substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability (whether or not attributable to the
financial difficulty of the debtor) is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the
recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability de-
recognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

3.20. Business Combinations under common control

Business Combinations involving entities or business under common control are accounted for using the pooling of
interest method.

Under pooling of interest method, the assets and liabilities of the combining entities or businesses are reflected at their
carrying amounts after making adjustments necessary to harmonise the accounting policies. The financial information
in the Consolidated Financial Statements in respect of prior periods is as if the business combination had occurred
from the beginning of the preceding period in the Consolidated Financial Statements, irrespective of the actual date of
the combination. The identity of the reserves is preserved in the same form in which they appeared in the standalone
financial statements of the transferor and the difference, if any, between the amount recorded as share capital issued
plus any additional consideration in the form of cash or other assets and amount of share capital of the transferor is
transferred to capital reserves.

receivables from directors or relatives of directors - Also refer note 42.

11.3 The Group has entered into contracts for the sale of residential units on structured instalment basis. These instalments are specified in the contracts. The Company is exposed to credit
risk in respect of instalments due. Generally, the legal ownership of residential units are transferred to the buyer after all/ substantial instalments are recovered. In addition, instalment dues
are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Company’s exposure to credit risk is not significant.
On conservative basis, though no significant credit risk involved, the allowances for credit losses (ECL) is provided for trade receivables. In determining ECL provision, the Company has
used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables based on a provision matrix. The provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss
experience and is adjusted for forward looking information. The ECL is based on the ageing of the receivables that are due and rates used in the provision matrix.

(ii) Disclosures for defined benefit plans


(a) Defined benefit obligations - Gratuity (Unfunded)
The Group has a defined benefit gratuity plan for its employees. The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Act, every employee
who has completed five years of service is entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on the employee’s length of service and salary at
retirement age. Every employee who has completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn) for each completed year of
service as per the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The scheme is unfunded.

Risks associated with plan provisions


Valuations are based on certain assumptions, which are dynamic in nature and vary over time. As such Group is exposed to various risks as follows:

Interest rate risk The defined benefit obligation is calculated using a discount rate based on government bonds. If bond yields fall,
the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.
Salary inflation risk Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.
Demographic risk This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal,
disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward
and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria.

For determination of the liability in respect of compensated gratuity, the Group has used following actuarial assumptions:

Note:
(i) Since there is no Financial Asset/Financial Liability which is measured at fair value through Profit & Loss or Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income, no separate disclosure
has been made for the same in the above table.
(b) Fair valuation techniques
The Group maintains policies and procedures to value financial assets or financial liabilities using the best and most relevant data available. The fair values of the financial assets and
liabilities are included at the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The management assessed that fair value of Trade receivables (net), Cash and cash equivalents, Other bank balances, Loans, Other Current financial asset, Current Borrowings, Trade
payables, Other Current financial liabilities and Lease Liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Further, the management
has assessed that fair value will be approximate to their carrying amounts as they are priced to market interest rates on or near the end of reporting period.

(c) Fair value hierarchy


Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value in the financial statement and are grouped into three levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on
the observability of significant inputs to the measurement, as follows:
Level 1 : Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 : Other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 : Techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.
60 Risk management framework
The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. The board of directors is responsible for
developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Group, to set
appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and
the Group’s activities. The Company’s Board of Directors oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the
adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The Board of Directors is assisted in its oversight role by internal audit team. Internal audit team
undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Board of Directors.
The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
• Credit risk;
• Liquidity risk;
• Market risk

(a) Credit risk :


Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers or counterparty to financial instruments may not be able to meet their obligations. To manage this, the Group periodically assesses the
financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Credit risks arises
from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks, financial institutions and others, as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables.

The Group considers factors such as track record, size of institutions, market reputation and service standards to select banks with which balances and deposits are maintained. the balances
and fixed deposits are generally maintained with the banks with whom the Group has regular transactions. Further, the Group does not maintain significant cash in hand other than those
required for its day to day operations. Considering the same, the Group is not exposed to expected credit loss of cash and cash equivalent and bank balances.

The Group has entered into contracts for the sale of residential units on structured instalment basis. The instalments are specified in the contracts. The Group is exposed to credit risk in
respect of instalments due. Generally the legal ownership of residential units are transferred to the buyer only after all/ significant instalments are recovered. In addition, instalment dues
are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to credit risk is not significant. The Group evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables
as low, as none of its customers constitutes significant portions of trade receivables as at the year end.
(b) Liquidity risk :
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial
asset. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and
stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to Group’s reputation.

Annexure VI- Notes to restated consolidated financial statements
(Amount in million rupees, except share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet
operational needs. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance and compliance with internal statement of financial position ratio
targets.

The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date:

Lease liabilities (Current & Non-current) 8.02 15.16 - 23.18

(c) Market risk


Market risk is the risk that the changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of
financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The pre
dominant currency of the Group's revenue and operating cash flows is Indian Rupees (INR). There is no foreign currency risk as there is no outstanding foreign currency exposure at the
year end.
(d) Interest Rate Risk
The Group has taken term loans and working capital loans from bank and financial institutions. The Group does not expose to the risk of changes in market interest rates as Group's long
and short term debt obligations are of fixed interest rate. Therefore, there are no interest rate risks, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of
change in market interest rates.
61 Capital risk management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern so, that they can continue to provide returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders
and maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce cost of capital. The Group manages its capital structure and make adjustments to, in light of changes in economic conditions, and the
risk characteristics of underlying assets. In order to achieve this overall objective, the Group’s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants
attached to the borrowings that define the capital structure requirements.

Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. The ratio is calculated as net debt divided by equity. Net debt is calculated as total
borrowing (including current and non-current) as shown in the balance sheet.
The Company monitors capital using 'Total Debt' to 'Equity'. The Company's Total Debt to Equity Ratio are as tabulated below:

Overview

We have been involved in the real estate business since 1986 and develop real estate across the residential and
commercial sectors in South Central Mumbai region. We have a residential portfolio located in the markets of Mahim,
Dadar, Prabhadevi and Parel, which are sub-markets of the South-Central Mumbai micro market where we have
established our presence. We are focused primarily on value luxury, luxury segments and commercial segment. We are
now venturing into residential real estate development in Bandra sub-market.
Our focus area of operation is the South-Central region in Mumbai mainly consisting of Mahim, Matunga, Dadar,
Prabhadevi and Parel, as our expertise lies is in the redevelopment of tenanted properties under Regulation 33(7) of the
Development Control and Promotion Regulations (“DCPR”) in the Mumbai region. Since most of the land parcels in
the South Central Mumbai market are in the nature of redevelopment projects, our core competence lies in tenant

382
settlement which is a key element for unlocking value on such land parcels. We identify cessed/ non-cessed properties
with existing tenants, and tie up with the landlords of such tenanted properties by entering into a development
agreement or on outright purchase basis through conveyance deed. Our Company does not provide any construction
services on its own and is 100% dependent on third party contractors for the construction services of its Projects. Since
incorporation, we have completed forty-two (42) projects with a developed area of more than 1,046,543.20 square feet
in the South-Central Mumbai region. In addition to the Completed Projects, we have thirteen (13) Ongoing Projects
with a developable area of 20,34,434.40 square feet and saleable carpet area 6,09,928 square feet and sixteen (16)
Upcoming Projects with an estimated carpet area of 7,44,149 square feet.

Further, Our Company has completed 4 projects in preceding three Financial Years. The completion timelines for
each of the projects varies according to scope of work, project size, construction and approval complexities, conditions
related to the project site and external factors which are beyond control of the Company. The Company has completed
42 projects in the last 37 years of its existence delivering on an average 3 to 4 projects in 3 years. Although, the
completion of 4 projects in last 3 years is in line with Company’s historical average delivery rate, there was some
delay caused during the Covid-19 pandemic during such period. Details of the projects completed by our Company

operations and extensive experience in South Central Mumbai region provides us with significant opportunities in this
fast-growing redevelopment sub-markets in the region.

From 1986 to 2023, we have completed 42 residential and commercial projects out of which 41 projects (97.62%) are

385
redevelopment projects. We have over the years earned our reputation in South Central Mumbai region through
quality-conscious development and specialization in the redevelopment of tenanted properties. Majority of our
projects executed by us are on land owned by us or through development agreements with land-owners. Since most
of the land parcels in the South Central Mumbai market are in the nature of redevelopment projects, our core
competence lies in tenant settlement which is a key element for unlocking value on such land parcels. We identify
cessed/ non-cessed properties with existing tenants, and tie up with the landlords of such tenanted properties by
entering into a development agreement or on outright purchase basis through conveyance deed. We have over the
years provided good quality housing free-of-cost to the existing tenants/ occupants of redevelopment properties. As
on October 31, 2023, we have redeveloped houses for more than 1,011 tenants free-of-cost under regulation 33(7) of
the Development Control and Promotion Regulation, 2034 (“DCP Regulations”). Compliance of Regulation 33(7)
of the DCP Regulations enables sanction of more than FSI - 3.00 for development by the regulatory authorities. As
on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, there are 19,642 number of cessed properties in the island city of Mumbai
which are yet to be redeveloped.

To bring to life our vision of creating contemporary, sustainable and quality construction, we work with a host of
leading architects, namely Sanjay Puri Architects and Vivek Bhole Architects Private Limited for our projects. Almost
all aspects of our real estate development business are conducted through in-house capabilities, including acquisition
of suitable land and delivering a project from conceptualization to completion. We have also set up an integrated in-
house project management team to focus on procurement efficiencies, vendor selection and construction activities.
Our in-house sales team is supported by a distribution network of multiple non-exclusive and select channel partners
across India which cater to key high networth individuals and non-resident Indians. We also have a full-fledged in-
house customer relationship team and after-sales team which supports customers from the property booking stage till
the final delivery of the property.

Our Company was founded by our Promoter, Rajan Meenathakonil Thomas, who is the Chairperson and Managing
Director with over thirty-six (36) years of experience in various aspects of real estate business. The leadership team
also consists of Rahul Rajan Jesu Thomas, Whole-time Director with over sixteen (16) years of experience in various
aspects of real estate business along with other professionals, each having vast experience across different industries
and who are instrumental in implementing our business strategies.

We are amongst the prominent real estate developers, focused primarily on value luxury and luxury segments and
commercial segment through:

• construction and development of high quality 1 BHK flats and compact 2 BHK flats, catering to aspirational
buyers and provide value for money residential projects, in premium locations (“Value Luxury Segment”);

• construction and development of high quality 2 BHK flats, 3 BHK flats and 4 BHK flats, catering to ultra-
high net worth and high net worth individual buyers in the South Central Mumbai region (“Luxury
Segment”); and

• construction and development of commercial offices on a built-to-suit model for select clientele and boutique
offices (“Commercial Segment”).

The details of our Value Luxury and Luxury Segments in the residential projects are stated as below:

Value Luxury Segment

In this segment, we provide 1BHK flats ranging from 300 to 500 square feet carpet area and compact 2BHK flats
ranging from 500 to 800 square feet carpet area which have witnessed a robust demand in the South Central Mumbai
region. Recently, in this segment we have completed projects namely, St. Anthony Apartments (Mahim), Lumiere
(Dadar) and Elizabeth Apartment (Dadar). We are an early entrant in this segment by providing spacious 1BHK flats
and compact 2BHK flats with sea views, banquets, parking space, gymnasium and premium quality amenities. The

developing projects such as Ave Maria (Dadar), Vitalis (Mahim), Suraj Parkview 2 (Dadar) and Suraj Eterna (Mahim).

Luxury Segment

Our ability to design high-quality differentiated products and strategic positioning, coupled with limited land
availability in the South Central Mumbai micro-market have been key to our success in the Luxury Segment. We
provide 2 BHK flats ranging from 800 to 950 square feet carpet area and 3 BHK flats ranging from 1,000 to 1,500
square feet carpet area and 4 BHK flats ranging from 1,800 to 2,200 square feet carpet area which have witnessed
robust demand in the South Central Mumbai region. Recently, in this segment we have Completed Projects namely
Mangirish (Dadar) and Tranquil Bay (Dadar) which are located in close proximity to the Arabian Sea. We are currently
developing projects i.e. Palette (Dadar) and Ocean Star (Dadar), both designed by the leading architect Sanjay Puri
Architects. These prime projects offer sea view, a distinguishing feature of floor to floor height of 12 ft. 6 inches,
double glazing windows which provides insulation from sound and weather, swimming pool, multi-level podium
parking, walking track, club house, kids play area, gymnasium, luxury fitting and fixtures, amongst other amenities.
Since both the projects are high rise residential towers, we have awarded the contract to a civil contractor.

We have also developed commercial real estate projects and mixed-use developments around our core residential
projects. We have constructed and sold corporate offices to institutional clientele such as Saraswat Co-operative Bank
Limited (Prabhadevi) and Clearing Corporation of India Limited (Dadar). To cater to the increasing need for
independent office buildings in the commercial segment, we are currently, proposing a 16 storey commercial building
situated in Tulsi Pipe Road, Mahim.

FACTORS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITIONS

Our business, results of operations and financial condition are affected by a number of factors, some of which are
beyond our control. This section sets out certain key factors that we believe have affected our business, results of
operations and financial condition in the past or which we expect will affect our business, results of operations or
financial condition in the future. For a detailed discussion of certain factors that may adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition, see “Risk Factors” beginning on page on page 33.

Sales of our project in timely manner

We typically commence sale of units along with the construction of projects. In the three months period ended June
30, 2023, Fiscal 2023, 2022, and 2021, revenue from sale of projects was ₹ 1,024.10, ₹3057.44 million, ₹2,727.18
million, and ₹2,399.87 million, respectively, representing 99.61%, 99.30%, 99.57% and 98.36% of our total income
in such periods, respectively.

Our revenues and costs may fluctuate from period to period due to a combination of factors beyond our control,
including registration of sale deeds in a particular period and volatility in expenses such as costs to acquire land or
development rights and construction costs. The volume of bookings depends on our ability to design projects that will
meet customer preferences and market trends, and to timely market and pre-sell our projects, the willingness of
customers to pay for the projects or enter into sale agreements well in advance of receiving possession of the projects
and general market conditions. We market and pre-sell our projects in phases from the date of launch of the project
after receiving requisite approvals, including those required under the RERA, which is typically after acquisition of
the land or land development rights and during the process of planning and designing the project, up until the time we
complete our project, depending on market conditions. As of October 31, 2023, we have thirteen (13) Ongoing Projects
and sixteen (16) Upcoming Projects. We cannot predict with certainty when our projects will be completed and sold
as our project timetables are occasionally disrupted by and subject to unforeseen circumstances at different stages of
planning and execution. For instance, construction at our work sites were adversely impacted due to the onset of the
COVID-19 pandemic and related government measures such as the nation-wide lockdown. As a result, project
timetables have been rescheduled significantly. This may lead to large fluctuation in financial result for any financial
period depending on work completed in that period and possessions given during that period. Therefore, our results
of operations will significantly depend upon the size and number of completed projects which are ready to be sold or
have been sold to customers in each financial period as our revenue from sales depends upon the volume of bookings
we are able to obtain for our developments as well as the rate of progress of construction of our projects.

Cost of construction and development

Our cost of construction includes the cost of raw materials such as steel, cement, ready mix concrete, wood, flooring,
sanitary fittings, electrical fittings, plumbing and other building materials and labour costs. Raw material prices,
particularly those of steel, ready mix concrete cement, may be affected by price volatility caused by various factors
that affect the Indian and international commodity markets. If there are extraordinary price increases in construction
materials due to increases in demand for cement and steel, or shortages in supply, the contractors we hire for
construction or development work may be unable to fulfil their contractual obligations and may therefore be compelled
to increase their contract prices. In the three months period ended June 30, 2023, Fiscals 2023, 2022 and 2021,
operating cost which comprises cost of land and development rights, cost of material consumed, compensation, labour
and contract expenses, professional charges, rates and taxes and other project expenses represent 42.93%, 56.08%,

390
61.59% and 63.82%, respectively, of our total expenses excluding the impact of change in inventories. As a result,
increases in costs for any construction materials may affect our construction costs, and consequently our margins
unless we are able to pass on such costs by increasing the sales price for our projects. Further, certain approval costs
and premiums payable to Government authorities are linked to the ready reckoner rates announced by the relevant
government authorities periodically. Any increase in the ready reckoner rates increases our approval costs. In addition,
the timing and quality of construction of the projects we develop depends on the availability and skill of our contractors
and consultants, as well as contingencies affecting them, including labour and industrial actions, such as strikes and
lockouts. Such labour and industrial actions may cause significant delays to the construction timetables for our projects
and we may therefore be required to find replacement contractors and consultants at higher cost. As a result, any
increase in prices resulting from higher construction costs could adversely affect demand for our projects and our
profit margins.

Availability of financing on favourable terms

We fund our property development activities through a combination of medium and long-term debt and internal
accruals. Accordingly, our ability to obtain financing, as well as the cost of such financing, affects our business.
Though we believe we are able to obtain funding at competitive interest rates, cost of financing is material for us Our
total outstanding indebtedness, on a consolidated basis was ₹5,688.25 million, ₹5,930.93 million, ₹6,381.57 million
and ₹6,004.78 million as of September 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively,
and our finance costs before allocating to cost of projects were ₹271.89 million, ₹1,073.54 million, ₹930.96 million
and ₹792.07 million for June 30,2023 and the financial years 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Major drivers behind
the growth of demand for housing units are nuclearization of families, increasing in working population, rising
disposable income, availability of housing loans at affordable interest rates. Changes in interest rates also affect the
ability and willingness of our prospective real estate customers, particularly customers for our residential properties,
to obtain financing for their purchase of our developments. The interest rate at which our real estate customers may
borrow funds for the purchase of our properties affects the affordability and purchasing power of, and hence the market
demand for, our residential real estate developments.

General Economic Condition and the Condition and Performance of the Real Estate Market in India

We derive a substantial part of our revenue from our real estate activities in South Central Mumbai Region in Mumbai.
Accordingly, we are heavily dependent on the state of the Indian the South Central Mumbai real estate sector in
particular economy and real estate sector in general. As demand for new residential and commercial properties is
driven by increased employment and increasing disposable income, any slowdown or perceived slowdown in the
Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian economy, could adversely affect our business and financial
performance.

Regulatory framework

The real estate sector in India is highly regulated. Our operations, the acquisition of land and land development rights,
and the implementation of our projects require us to obtain regulatory approvals and licenses and require us to comply
with the land acquisition and conversion rules and regulations of a variety of regulatory authorities. We are also subject
to local and municipal laws relating to real estate development activities such as Maharashtra Regional and Town
Planning Act, 1966, and the relevant development control regulations. These require approvals for construction and
development of real estate projects including approvals for the ratio of built-up area to land area, plans for road access,
community facilities, open spaces, water supply, sewage disposal systems, electricity supply, environmental
suitability, zoning regulations and size of the project. Any delay or failure in getting any of these approvals for our
Ongoing Projects and Upcoming Projects may affect our business and result of operations.

Further, the Central Government notified the RERA on March 26, 2016 and has enforced RERA with effect from May
1, 2017. The RERA has been introduced to regulate the real estate industry and ensure, amongst others, imposition of
certain responsibilities on real estate developers and accountability towards customers and protection of their interest.
RERA requires the mandatory registration of real estate projects and developers are not permitted to issue
advertisements or accept advances unless real estate projects are registered. The RERA also imposes restrictions on
use of funds received from customers prior to project completion and taking customer approval for major changes in
sanction plan. In addition, with the introduction of RERA we have to comply with specific legislations enacted by

391
respective State Governments, where our Ongoing Projects, Upcoming Projects, or future projects may be located.
While most of the State Governments in India have notified rules in relation to RERA, including Maharashtra where
all our projects are located, other states are in the process of doing so. Accordingly, our Company is currently required
to comply with rules, regulations, circulars and orders passed by the Maharashtra government pursuant to RERA. Our
results of operation may, therefore, be impacted on account of the significant resources and management time we
expend to ensure compliance with the RERA and other regulatory requirements.

In addition, one of the major factors that influence our project costs and customer buying decisions are taxes, cess,
fees, charges and premiums payable for a particular project. We benefit from certain tax regulations and incentives
that accord favourable treatment with respect to certain of our projects and therefore translate in benefits for our
customers as well. Any newly introduced or revised policies in relation to the tax, duties or other such levies issued
by relevant tax authorities may deprive us of our existing benefits which may adversely affect our results of operations.
The reduction or termination of our tax incentives, or inability to satisfy the conditions under which such tax incentives
are made available, will increase our tax liability and adversely affect our business results of operations and financial
condition.

Availability of Future Growth Opportunities

Our growth is linked to the availability of land in areas where we intend to develop projects either by ourselves or
under joint development or joint venture arrangements. Suitable land parcels are severely limited in South Central
Mumbai region, our primary market. We believe that we have been successful in obtaining some of the land parcels
at reasonable cost, but are not able to predict our ability to do so in the future. The cost of acquiring land, which
includes the amounts paid for freehold rights, leasehold rights, the cost of registration and stamp duty, represents a
substantial part of our project cost, and may sometimes determine whether we are able to acquire certain parcels of
land at all. We enter into a deed of conveyance or a lease deed transferring title or leasehold rights in our favour. The
registration charges and stamp duty are payable by us. Additional costs include those incurred in complying with
regulatory formalities, such as fees paid for change of land use, infrastructure and development charges and premium.

Competition

We compete for land, sale of projects, manpower resources and skilled personnel with other private developers. We
face competition from various national and regional real estate developers. Moreover, as we seek to diversify our
operations in other micro-markets of the MMR region, we face the risk that some of our competitors have a wider
geographical reach while some other competitors have a strong presence in regional markets. Some of our competitors
may have greater resources (including financial, land resources, and other types of infrastructure) to take advantage
of efficiencies created by size, and access to capital at lower costs, have a better brand recall, and established
relationships with homeowners. For example, we face competition from listed developers including Marcotech
Developers (Lodha Group), Oberoi Realty, Hubtown Developers and D B Realty that have real estate projects in SCM
region (Source: Company Commissioned Anarock Report). Our success in the future will depend significantly on our
ability to maintain and increase market share in the face of such competition. Our inability to compete successfully
with the existing players in the industry, may affect our business prospects and financial condition.

The Restated Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements are presented in Indian Rupees "INR" and all values are stated
as INR million, except when otherwise indicated.

2.2. Basis of consolidation

The Restated Consolidated Ind As Finacnial Statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its
subsidiaries as at June 30, 2023. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from
its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:

 Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the
investee)
 Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
 The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights result in control. To support this presumption and
when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant
facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

 The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
 Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
 The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights
 The size of the group’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of the holdings of the other
voting rights holders.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes
to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control

394
over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses
of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Restated Consolidated Ind As Finacnial
Statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Restated Consolidated Ind As Finacnial Statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like
transactions and other events in similar circumstances. If a member of the Group uses accounting policies other than
those adopted in the Restated Consolidated Ind As Finacnial Statements for like transactions and events in similar
circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to that Group member’s financial statements in preparing the
Restated Consolidated Ind As Finacnial Statements to ensure conformity with the Group’s accounting policies.

The financial statements of all entities used for the purpose of consolidation are drawn up to same reporting date as
that of the parent company, i.e., year ended on 31st March. When the end of the reporting period of the parent is
different from that of a subsidiary, the subsidiary prepares, for consolidation purposes, additional financial information
as of the same date as the financial statements of the parent to enable the parent to consolidate the financial information
of the subsidiary, unless it is impracticable to do so.

Consolidation procedure:

a) Combine like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent with those of its
subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiary are based on the amounts of the assets and
liabilities recognised in the Restated Consolidated Ind As Finacnial Statements at the acquisition date.

b) Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiary and the parent’s portion of
equity of each subsidiary. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill.

c) Eliminate in full intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions
between entities of the group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are recognised in assets,
such as inventory and fixed assets, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that
requires recognition in the Consolidated Summary Statements. Ind AS 12 Income Taxes applies to temporary
differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting from intragroup transactions.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the
parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a
deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their
accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity,
income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on
consolidation.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.
If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:

 Derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts at the date
when control is lost
 Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
 Derecognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
 Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
 Recognises the fair value of any investment retained
 Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss
 Recognise that distribution of shares of subsidiary to Group in Group’s capacity as owners
 Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or transferred directly
to retained earnings, if required by other Ind AS as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the
related assets or liabilities

The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on going concern basis. The accounting policies are
applied consistently to all the periods presented in the Consolidated Financial Statement. These financial statements

395
are prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise indicated.

The financial statement has been prepared considering all Ind AS notified by MCA till reporting date i.e. June 30,
2023. The significant accounting policies used in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements are set out in Note
no. 3 of the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

3.1. Current and non-current classification

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet based on current/ non-current
classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

 Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle.


 Held primarily for the purpose of trading
 Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
 Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.

A liability is current when:

 It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle


 It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
 It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
 There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting
period.

The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current
assets and liabilities, respectively.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash
equivalents.

The operating cycle of the Group's real estate operations varies from project to project depending on the size of the
project, type of development, project complexities and related approvals. Assets and Liabilities are classified into
current and non-current based on the operating cycle.

3.2. Functional and presentation of currency

The financial statements are prepared in Indian Rupees which is also the Company’s functional currency. All amounts
are rounded to the nearest rupees in Millions.

3.3. Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell
the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability or in the absence of
a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal market or the most
advantageous market must be accessible to the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when
pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would

396
use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are
available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of
unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the Consolidated Financial Statements are
categorized within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement as a whole. The fair value hierarchy is described as below:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted price in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly
Level 3 –Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the Consolidated Financial Statements at fair value on a recurring basis,
the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing
categorization at the end of each reporting period.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of
the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of fair value hierarchy.

Fair values have been determined for measurement and / or disclosure purpose using methods as prescribed in “Ind
AS 113 Fair Value Measurement”.

3.4. Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement
principles of Ind AS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of
assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities as on the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and
reported amounts of income and expenses for the periods presented. The Company based its assumptions and estimates
on parameters available when the Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared. Estimates and underlying
assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which
the estimates are revised and future periods are affected.

Key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have
a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year. Significant estimates and critical judgement in applying these accounting policies are described below:

3.4.1. Significant estimates

i) Revenue recognition and construction work in progress

 Revenue to be recognized, stage of completion, projections of cost and revenues expected from project and
realization of the construction work in progress have been determined based on management estimates which are
based on current market situations/ technical evaluations.

 In respect of real estate project (Construction work in progress) which are at initial preparatory stage i.e.
acquisition of land / development rights, realization of the construction work in progress have been determined
based on management estimates of commercial feasibility and management expectation of future economic
benefits from the projects. These estimates are reviewed periodically by management and revised whenever
required.

The consequential effect of such revision in estimates is considered in the year of revision and in the balance future
period of the project. These estimates are dynamic in nature and are dependent upon various factors like eligibility of
the tenants, changes in the area, approval and other factors. Changes in these estimates can have significant impact

397
on the financial results of the Company and its comparability with the previous year however quantification of the
impact due to change in said estimates cannot be quantified.

ii) Defined benefit obligations

The cost of defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation along with leave salary are
determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions such as standard
rates of inflation, mortality, discount rate, attrition rates and anticipation of future salary increases. Due to the
complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to
changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

iii) Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured
based on quoted price in active markets since they are unquoted, their value is measured using valuation technique
including the discounted cash flow (DCF) model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where
possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements
include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these
factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

3.4.2. Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies and estimation uncertainty

i) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s
recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered
impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

ii) Impairment of financial assets

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected credit loss
rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment
calculation based on industry practice, Company’s past history, and existing market conditions as well as forward
looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

3.5. Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation

Recognition and measurement

Properties plant and equipment are stated at their cost of acquisition. Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment
includes purchase price including non - refundable taxes and duties, borrowing cost directly attributable to the
qualifying asset, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its
intended use and the present value of the expected cost for the dismantling/decommissioning of the asset.

Parts (major components) of an item of property, plant and equipments having different useful lives are accounted as
separate items of property, plant and equipments.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company. All other repair
and maintenance costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss as incurred.

Capital work-in-progress comprises of cost incurred on property, plant and equipment under construction / acquisition
that are not yet ready for their intended use at the Balance Sheet Date.

Depreciation and useful lives

398
Depreciation on the property, plant and equipment (other than capital work in progress) is provided on a written down
value (WDV) over their useful lives which is in consonance of useful life mentioned in Schedule II to the Companies
Act, 2013. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted
prospectively.

De-recognition

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is de-recognised upon disposal
or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition
of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is
included in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is de-recognised.

3.6. Leases

The determination of whether a contract is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the contract at the inception
of the lease. The contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract provide lessee, the right to control the use of an
identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. A lessee does not have the right to use an identified
asset if, at inception of the contract, a lessor has a substantive right to substitute the asset throughout the period of use.

The Company accounts for the lease arrangement as follows:

i) Where the Group entity is the lessee

The Group applies single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short term leases and leases
of low value assets. On the commencement of the lease, the Group, in its Balance Sheet, recognize the right of use
asset at cost and lease liability at present value of the lease payments to be made over the lease term.

Subsequently, the right of use asset are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated
impairment loss. Lease liability are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The lease payment
made, are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of lease liability, and are recognised as expense
in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Lease deposits given are a financial asset and are measured at amortised cost under Ind AS 109 since it satisfies Solely
Payment of Principal and Interest (SPPI) condition. The difference between the present value and the nominal value
of deposit is considered as prepaid rent and recognised over the lease term. Unwinding of discount is treated as finance
income and recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

ii) Where the Group entity is the lessor

The lessor needs to classify its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. Lease arrangements where the
risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset substantially vest with the lessor are recognized as operating
lease. The Group has only operating lease and accounts the same as follows:

Assets given under operating leases are included in investment properties. Lease income is recognised in the Statement
of Profit and Loss on straight line basis over the lease term, unless there is another systematic basis which is more
representative of the time pattern of the lease.

Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the
leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income.

Lease deposits received are financial instruments (financial liability) and are measured at fair value on initial
recognition. The difference between the fair value and the nominal value of deposits is considered as rent in advance
and recognised over the lease term on a straight line basis. Unwinding of discount is treated as interest expense (finance
cost) for deposits received and is accrued as per the EIR method.

399
3.7. Intangible assets and amortisation

Recognition and measurement

Intangible assets are recognized only if it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to asset will flow
to the Company and the cost of asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are stated at cost of
acquisition/development less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss if any.

Cost of an intangible asset includes purchase price including non - refundable taxes and duties, borrowing cost directly
attributable to the qualifying asset and any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended
use.

Intangible assets under development comprises of cost incurred on intangible assets under development that are not
yet ready for their intended use as at the Balance Sheet date.

Amortization and useful lives

Computer softwares are amortized in 3 years on Written Down Value (WDV). Amortisation methods and useful lives
are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively.

In case of Goodwill related to Business Combination, after initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any
accumulated impairment losses. In case such goodwill paid for acquisition is in relation to underlying real estate
project, impairment co-inside with the revenue recognition from the underlying project and accordingly impairment
provision is made in line with revenue recognition. Goodwill, other than related to underlying real estate project is
only tested for impairment.

In case of assets purchased during the year, amortization on such assets is calculated on pro-rata basis from the date
of such addition.

3.8. Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date for any indication of impairment based on
internal / external factors. An impairment loss is recognised wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its
recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of a) fair value of assets less cost of disposal and b) its
value in use. Value in use is the present value of future cash flows expected to derive from an assets or Cash-Generating
Unit (CGU).

Based on the assessment done at each balance sheet date, recognised impairment loss is further provided or reversed
depending on changes in circumstances. After recognition of impairment loss or reversal of impairment loss as
applicable, the depreciation charge for the asset is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying
amount, less its residual value (if any), on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. If the conditions leading
to recognition of impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased, impairment losses recognised are reversed to
the extent it does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined after considering depreciation /
amortisation had no impairment loss been recognised in earlier years.

3.9. Inventories

Inventory of finished units are valued at lower of cost or net realisable value.

Construction work in progress (CWIP) is valued at lower of cost or net realisable value. CWIP includes cost of land,
premium or fees paid in connection with acquisition of transferable development rights, sub-development rights, initial
costs for securing projects, initial premium paid on assignment/transfer of project, construction costs, cost of
redevelopment, settlement of claims relating to land, and attributable borrowing cost and expenses incidental to the
projects undertaken by the Company to project. In case of projects at initial stage, net realisable value is computed
based on the management estimate of future realisable value.

400
Construction costs include all cost related to development of real estate project and exclude all costs pertaining to
selling and marketing activities which are considered as indirect cost and are directly charged to the Statement of
Profit and Loss.

3.10. Revenue recognition

i) Revenue from contract with customer

Revenue from contracts with customer is recognised, when control of the goods or services are transferred to the
customer, at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange
for those goods or services. The Company assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria in order to
determine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Company concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue
arrangements. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised.

Revenue is recognized as follows:

a) Revenue from contract with customers

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received/ receivable, taking into account contractually
defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government and is net of rebates
and discounts. The Group assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria to determine if it is acting as
principal or agent. The Group has concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue arrangements.

Revenue is recognised in the income statement to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to
the Group and the revenue and costs, if applicable, can be measured reliably.

The Group has applied five step model as per Ind AS 115 ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ to recognise
revenue in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group satisfies a performance obligation and recognises
revenue over time, if one of the following criteria is met:

a) The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group’s performance as the
Group performs; or
b) The Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or
enhanced; or
c) The Group’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and the entity has an
enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

For performance obligations where any of the above conditions are not met, revenue is recognised at the point in time
at which the performance obligation is satisfied.

Revenue is recognised either at point of time or over a period of time based on various conditions as included in the
contracts with customers.

ii) Finance income

Finance income is recognised as it accrues using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Finance income is included
in other income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

When calculating the EIR, the Group estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the
financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected
credit losses.

iii) Revenue from lease rentals and related income

Lease income is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on straight line basis over the lease term, unless there
is another systematic basis which is more representative of the time pattern of the lease. Revenue from lease rentals is

401
disclosed net of indirect taxes, if any.

Revenue from property management service is recognised at value of service and is disclosed net of indirect taxes, if
any.

iv) Dividend income

Revenue is recognised when the Group’s right to receive the payment is established, which is generally when
shareholders approve the dividend.

v) Other income

Other incomes are accounted on accrual basis, except interest on delayed payment by debtors and liquidated damages
which are accounted on acceptance of the Group’s claim.

3.11. Foreign currency transaction

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the
transaction. As at the Balance Sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated at closing exchange rate.
Exchange difference arising on settlement or translation of foreign currency monetary items are recognised as income
or expense in the year in which they arise.

Foreign currency non-monetary items which are carried at historical cost are reported using the exchange rate at the
date of transactions.

3.12. Employee benefits

 Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term
employee benefits and they are recognized as an expense at the undiscounted amount in the Statement of Profit and
Loss in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

 Post-employment benefits & other long term benefits

a. Defined contribution plan

The defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Company contributes fixed
contribution to a Government Administered Fund and will have no obligation to pay further contribution. The
Company’s defined contribution plan comprises of Provident Fund, Labour Welfare Fund Employee State Insurance
Scheme, National Pension Scheme, and Employee Pension Scheme. The Company’s contribution to defined
contribution plans are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the employee renders the
related service.

b. Post-employment benefit and other long term benefits

The Company has defined benefit plans comprising of gratuity and other long term benefits in the form of leave
benefits. Company’s obligation towards gratuity liability is unfunded. The present value of the defined benefit
obligations and other long term employee benefits is determined based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit
credit method. The rate used to discount defined benefit obligation is determined by reference to market yields at the
Balance Sheet date on Indian Government Bonds for the estimated term of obligations.

For gratuity plan, re-measurements comprising of (a) actuarial gains and losses, (b) the effect of the asset ceiling
(excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability) and (c) the return on plan assets
(excluding amounts included in net interest on the post-employment benefits liability) are recognised immediately in
the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through other comprehensive income in the

402
period in which they occur. Re-measurements are not reclassified to statement of profit and loss in subsequent periods.

Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of defined benefit plan are recognised when the curtailment or
settlement occurs.

Actuarial gains or losses arising on account of experience adjustment and the effect of changes in actuarial assumptions
for employee benefit plan other than gratuity are recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as income
or expense.

3.13. Borrowing cost

Borrowing costs (net of interest income on temporary investments) that are directly attributable to the acquisition,
construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective asset till such time
the asset is ready for its intended use or sale. A qualifying asset is an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period
of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Ancillary cost of borrowings in respect of loans not disbursed are
carried forward and accounted as borrowing cost in the year of disbursement of loan. All other borrowing costs are
expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest expenses calculated as per effective
interest method, exchange difference arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are treated as an
adjustment to the borrowing cost and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

3.14. Taxes on income

Tax expenses for the year comprises of current tax, deferred tax charge or credit and adjustments of taxes for earlier
years. In respect of amounts adjusted outside profit or loss (i.e. in other comprehensive income or equity), the
corresponding tax effect, if any, is also adjusted outside profit or loss.

Provision for current tax is made as per the provisions of Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are
recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary
differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
available against which those deductible temporary differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances can be
utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is
realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at
the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set
off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxation authority.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which such deferred tax assets can be utilized. In situations where the Company has unused tax losses and
unused tax credits, deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that they can be utilized against future
taxable profits. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for the appropriateness of their respective carrying amounts at each
Balance Sheet date.

At each reporting date, the Company re-assesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It recognises previously
unrecognised deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit allow deferred tax
assets to be recovered.

3.15. Cash & cash equivalent

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, bank balances, deposits with banks (other than on lien) and all short
term and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and are subject to an
insignificant risk of changes in value.

403
3.16. Cash flow statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, where by net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of
transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and
item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing
and financing activities are segregated.

3.17. Provisions, contingent liabilities, contingent assets

A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past event
and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable
estimate can be made. If the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-
tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risk specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the
provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but
probably will not require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect
of which likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

Provisions, contingent liabilities, contingent assets and commitments are reviewed at each balance sheet date.

3.18. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the net profit for the year attributable to the shareholders’ and weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average numbers of shares also includes fixed
number of equity shares that are issuable on conversion of compulsorily convertible preference shares, debentures or
any other instrument, from the date consideration is receivable (generally the date of their issue) of such instruments.

Diluted earnings per share is computed using the net profit for the year attributable to the shareholder’ and weighted
average number of equity and potential equity shares outstanding during the year including share options, convertible
preference shares and debentures, except where the result would be anti-dilutive. Potential equity shares that are
converted during the year are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, from the beginning of the year
or date of issuance of such potential equity shares, to the date of conversion.

3.19. Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than
financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value
of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly
attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised
immediately in profit or loss.

3.19.1. Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular
way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame
established by regulation or convention in the marketplace. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured
in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Classification of financial assets

Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost (except for debt
instruments that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition):

404
 the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash
flows; and

 the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All other financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating
interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future
cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate,
transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where
appropriate, a shorter period, to the gross carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as
at FVTPL. Interest income is recognised in profit or loss and is included in the “Other income” line item.

Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI

On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to
present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity
instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are
initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and
losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ‘Reserve
for equity instruments through other comprehensive income’. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit
or loss on disposal of the investments.

A financial asset is held for trading if:

 It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or

 On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages
together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

 It is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument or a financial guarantee. Dividends
on these investments in equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive
the dividends is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the
entity, the dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount of dividend
can be measured reliably. Dividends recognised in profit or loss are included in the ‘Other income’ line item.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Investments in equity instruments are classified as at FVTPL, unless the Company irrevocably elects on initial
recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income for investments in equity
instruments which are not held for trading.

Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses
arising on re-measurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates
any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘Other income’ line item. Dividend on
financial assets at FVTPL is recognised when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established, it is probable
that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the entity, the dividend does not represent a
recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount of dividend can be measured reliably.

405
Impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model based on ‘simplified approach’
for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no
significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets,
expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the twelve month ECL, unless there has been a significant
increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of
expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that
is required to be recognized is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in statement of profit and loss.

De-recognition of financial asset

The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or
when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another
party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues
to control the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for
amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred
financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing
for the proceeds received.

On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum
of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss would have
otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.

On de-recognition of a financial asset other than in its entirety (e.g. when the Company retains an option to repurchase
part of a transferred asset), the Company allocates the previous carrying amount of the financial asset between the part
it continues to recognise under continuing involvement, and the part it no longer recognises on the basis of the relative
fair values of those parts on the date of the transfer. The difference between the carrying amount allocated to the part
that is no longer recognised and the sum of the consideration received for the part no longer recognised and any
cumulative gain or loss allocated to it that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit
or loss if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.
A cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is allocated between the part that
continues to be recognised and the part that is no longer recognised on the basis of the relative fair values of those
parts.

3.19.2. Financial liability and equity instrument

Classification as debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in
accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity
instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of
its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue
costs. Repurchase of the Company’s own equity instruments is recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or
loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company’s own equity
instruments.

Financial liabilities

All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or at FVTPL.

406
However, financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for de-recognition or when
the continuing involvement approach applies, financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company, and commitments
issued by the Company to provide a loan at below-market interest rate are measured in accordance with the specific
accounting policies set out below.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is either contingent consideration recognised
by the Company as an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS 103 applies or is held for trading or it is
designated as at FVTPL.

A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:

 it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term; or
 on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages together
and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
 it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading or contingent consideration recognised by the
Company as an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS 103 applies, may be designated as at FVTPL upon
initial recognition if:

 such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would
otherwise arise;
 the financial liability forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed
and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Company’s documented risk
management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
 it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and Ind AS 109 permits the entire
combined contract to be designated as at FVTPL in accordance with Ind AS 109.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognised
in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability
and is included in the ‘Other income’ line item.

However, for non-held-for-trading financial liabilities that are designated as at FVTPL, the amount of change in the
fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is recognised in other
comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other
comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, in which case these effects
of changes in credit risk are recognised in profit or loss. The remaining amount of change in the fair value of liability
is always recognised in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk that are
recognised in other comprehensive income are reflected immediately in retained earnings and are not subsequently
reclassified to profit or loss.

Gains or losses on financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments issued by the Company that are designated by
the Company as at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost

Financial liabilities that are not held-for-trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured at amortised cost
at the end of subsequent accounting periods. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities that are subsequently
measured at amortised cost are determined based on the effective interest method. Interest expense that is not
capitalised as part of costs of an asset is included in the ‘Finance costs’ line item. The effective interest method is a
method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant
period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees

407
and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums
or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the gross
carrying amount on initial recognition.

Financial guarantee contracts

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder
for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of a debt
instrument.

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are initially measured at their fair values and, if not designated
as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at the higher of:

 the amount of loss allowance determined in accordance with impairment requirements of Ind AS 109; and

 the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in
accordance with the principles of Ind AS 18.

Commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest rate

Commitments to provide a loan at a below-market interest rate are initially measured at their fair values and, if not
designated as at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at the higher of:

 the amount of loss allowance determined in accordance with impairment requirements of Ind AS 109; and

 the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in
accordance with the principles of Ind AS 18.

Compound financial instruments

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognised initially at fair value of a similar liability
that does not have an equity component. The equity component is recognised initially as the difference between the
fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly
attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and the equity components, if material, in proportion to their
initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to the initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is
not re-measured subsequent to initial recognition except on conversion or expiry.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a
currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to
realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Reclassification

The Company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial
recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For
financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model
for managing those assets. Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The management determines
change in the business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Company’s
operations. A change in the business model occurs when the Company either begins or ceases to perform an activity
that is significant to its operations. If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification
prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following

408
the change in business model. The Company does not restate any previously recognised gains, losses (including
impairment gains or losses) or interest.

De-recognition of financial liabilities

The Company de-recognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged,
cancelled or have expired. An exchange between with a lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms
is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability.
Similarly, a substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability (whether or not attributable to the
financial difficulty of the debtor) is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the
recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability
derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

3.20. Business Combinations under common control

Business Combinations involving entities or business under common control are accounted for using the pooling of
interest method.

Under pooling of interest method, the assets and liabilities of the combining entities or businesses are reflected at their
carrying amounts after making adjustments necessary to harmonise the accounting policies. The financial information
in the Consolidated Financial Statements in respect of prior periods is as if the business combination had occurred
from the beginning of the preceding period in the Consolidated Financial Statements, irrespective of the actual date
of the combination. The identity of the reserves is preserved in the same form in which they appeared in the standalone
financial statements of the transferor and the difference, if any, between the amount recorded as share capital issued
plus any additional consideration in the form of cash or other assets and amount of share capital of the transferor is
transferred to capital reserves.

NET TANGIBLE ASSETS AND MONETARY ASSETS

As at June 30, 2023 and March 21, 2023, March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, the monetary assets (being cash and
cash equivalents and bank balances) of our Company constituted on an aggregate more than 50% of the net tangible
assets of our Company. As a part of its business, our Company is required to provide bank guarantees to local
authorities. As a real estate developer, our Company is required to maintain amounts in the designated separate bank
accounts as per provisions of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 and earmarked escrow
accounts, to be utilised only as per terms of the borrowings. Further, our Company is required to provide margin
money in respect of borrowings such as working capital facilities and certain term loans towards implementation of
real estate projects. Accordingly, liens were marked on such margin money deposits in favour of the lenders. In
addition to the credit facilities availed from the borrowers, our Company also raises debentures as part of its fund
raising activities to meet the operations and construction requirements towards its business and development of real
estate project purposes. The repayment of the principal and interest amount of these debentures as per terms of the
borrowings needs to be paid in timely manner by our Company. These credit facilities and debentures have also been
utilized towards our Company’s business and its real estate projects and hence, have been considered as tied-up.

We enter into various transactions with related parties in the ordinary course of business. For further details, relating

Disclosures as required by Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 24 - Related Party Disclosures After considering the

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company and
its Subsidiaries (“Group”) risk management framework. The Board of Directors is responsible for developing and
monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify
and analyse the risk faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence
to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and
the Group’s activities. The Company’s Board of Directors oversees how management monitors compliance with the
Group’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in
relation to the risks faced by the Group. The Board of Directors is assisted in its oversight role by internal audit team.
Internal audit team undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results
of which are reported to the Board of Directors.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices
will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk
management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

423
The pre dominant currency of the Group's revenue and operating cash flows is Indian Rupees (INR). There is no
foreign currency risk as there is no outstanding foreign currency exposure at the year end.

Interest Rate Risk

The Group has taken term loans and working capital loans from bank and financial institutions. The Group does not
expose to the risk of changes in market interest rates as Group's long and short term debt obligations are of fixed
interest rate. Therefore, there are no interest rate risks, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will
fluctuate because of change in market interest rates.

Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers or counterparty to financial instruments may not be able to meet
their obligations. To manage this, the Group periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into
account the financial condition, current economic trends, analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts
receivable. Credit risks arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks, financial institutions and others,
as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables.

The Group has entered into contracts for the sale of residential units on structured instalment basis. The instalments
are specified in the contracts. The Group is exposed to credit risk in respect of instalments due. Generally, the legal
ownership of residential units is transferred to the buyer only after all/ significant instalments are recovered. In
addition, instalment dues are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to credit risk is
not significant. The Group evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as none of its
customers constitutes significant portions of trade receivables as at the year end.

The Group considers factors such as track record, size of institutions, market reputation and service standards to select
banks with which balances and deposits are maintained. the balances and fixed deposits are generally maintained with
the banks with whom the Group has regular transactions. Further, the Group does not maintain significant cash in
hand other than those required for its day to day operations. Considering the same, the Group is not exposed to
expected credit loss of cash and cash equivalent and bank balances.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial
liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is
to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both
normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to Group’s reputation.

Management of the Company monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity position and cash and cash
equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs. Such
forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance and compliance with
internal statement of financial position ratio targets.

Capital risk management:

The Group manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern so, that they can continue
to provide returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and maintain an optimal capital structure to
reduce cost of capital. The Group manages its capital structure and make adjustments to, in light of changes in
economic conditions, and the risk characteristics of underlying assets. In order to achieve this overall objective, the
Group’s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the
borrowings that define the capital structure requirements.

Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. The ratio is
calculated as net debt divided by equity. Net debt is calculated as total borrowing (including current and non-current)
as shown in the balance sheet.

Phased implementation of Unified Payments Interface

SEBI has issued the SEBI UPI Circulars in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of inter alia equity
shares. Pursuant to the SEBI UPI Circulars, the UPI Mechanism has been introduced in a phased manner as a
payment mechanism (in addition to mechanism of blocking funds in the account maintained with SCSBs under
ASBA) for applications by UPI Bidders through Designated Intermediaries with the objective to reduce the time
duration from public issue closure to listing from six Working Days up to three Working Days. Considering the
time required for making necessary changes to the systems and to ensure complete and smooth transition to the
UPI payment mechanism, the SEBI UPI Circulars have introduced the UPI Mechanism in three phases in the
following manner:

Phase I: This phase was applicable from January 1, 2019 until March 31, 2019 or floating of five main board
public issues, whichever was later. Subsequently, the timeline for implementation of Phase I was extended till
June 30, 2019. Under this phase, an UPI Bidders had the option to submit the ASBA Form with any of the
Designated Intermediary and use his/her UPI ID for the purpose of blocking of funds. The time duration from
public issue closure to listing continued to be six Working Days.

Phase II: This phase has become applicable from July 1, 2019 and was to initially continue for a period of three
months or floating of five main board public issues, whichever is later. SEBI vide its circular no.
SEBI/HO/CFD/DCR2/CIR/P/2019/133 dated November 8, 2019 has decided to extend the timeline for
implementation of UPI Phase II until March 31, 2020. Subsequently, SEBI vide its circular no.
SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2020/50 dated March 30, 2020 extended the timeline for implementation of UPI
Phase II till further notice. Under this phase, submission of the ASBA Form by UPI Bidders through Designated
Intermediaries (other than SCSBs) to SCSBs for blocking of funds has been discontinued and replaced by the UPI
Mechanism. However, the time duration from public issue closure to listing continues to be six Working Days
during this phase.

Phase III: This phase has become applicable on a voluntary basis for all issues opening on or after September 1,
2023 and on a mandatory basis for all issues opening on or after December 1, 2023, vide
SEBIcircular bearing number SEBI/HO/CFD/TPD1/CIR/P/2023/140 dated August 9, 2023 ("T+3
Notification”). In this phase, the time duration from public issue closure to listing has been reduced to three
Working Days.

The Issue will be made under UPI Phase II of the UPI Circular. The Issue is made under UPI Phase III of the UPI
Circular, the same will be advertised in shall be advertised in all editions of the English national daily newspaper
Financial Express, all editions of the Hindi national daily newspaper, Jansatta and regional editions of the Marathi
daily newspaper, Navshaki (Marathi being the regional language of Maharashtra, where our Registered and
Corporate Office is located), each with wide circulation on or prior to the Bid/Issue Opening Date and such
advertisement shall also be made available to the Stock Exchanges for the purpose of uploading on their websites.

All SCSBs offering the facility of making application in public issues shall also provide facility to make
application using UPI. Our Company will be required to appoint one of the SCSBs as a sponsor bank to act as a
conduit between the Stock Exchanges and NPCI in order to facilitate collection of requests and/or payment
instructions of the UPI Bidders using the UPI.

Pursuant to the UPI Circulars, SEBI has set out specific requirements for redressal of investor grievances for
applications that have been made through the UPI Mechanism. The requirements of the UPI Circulars include,
appointment of a nodal officer by the SCSB and submission of their details to SEBI, the requirement for SCSBs

466
to send SMS alerts for the blocking and unblocking of UPI mandates, the requirement for the Registrar to submit
details of cancelled, withdrawn or deleted applications, and the requirement for the bank accounts of unsuccessful
Bidders to be unblocked no later than one day from the date on which the Basis of Allotment is finalized. Failure
to unblock the accounts within the timeline would result in the SCSBs being penalized under the relevant securities
law. Additionally, if there is any delay in the redressal of investors’ complaints, the relevant SCSB as well as the
BRLMs will be required to compensate the concerned investor.

basis or 10% or more of the paid-up value of any series of debentures or preference shares or share warrants issued
that may be issued by our Company, the total investment made by the FPI will be re-classified as FDI subject to

to comply with applicable reporting requirements. Further, the total holdings of all FPIs put together, with effect

registered FPIs shall be included. While the aggregate limit as provided above could have been decreased by the
Indian company concerned to a lower threshold limit of 24% or 49% or 74% as deemed fit, with the approval of
its board of directors and its shareholders through a resolution and a special resolution, respectively before March

investment managers in such confirmations;

 Government and Government related investors registered as Category 1 FPIs; and

 Entities registered as collective investment scheme having multiple share classes.

The Bids belonging to any of the above mentioned seven structures and having same PAN may be collated and
identified as a single Bid in the Bidding process. The Equity Shares allotted in the Bid may be proportionately
distributed to the applicant FPIs (with same PAN). In order to ensure valid Bids, FPIs making multiple Bids using
the same PAN, and with different beneficiary account numbers, Client IDs and DP IDs, are required to provide a
confirmation along with each of their Bid cum Application Forms that the relevant FPIs making multiple Bids

or any part of such interest, in the same manner and, subject to the same regulations as to which Shares in the

Company, or in the assets of the Company on a winding up, shall be conferred by any such aliquot part or,
consolidated stock as would not, if existing in Shares, have conferred such privileges or advantages. No such
conversion shall affect or prejudice any preference or other special privilege attached to the Shares so converted.

well as to Shares and the words “Share” and “Shareholder” in these presents shall include “stock” and “stock-

stock included in the warrant.
