Q1 FY27 Performance Drives Upside Revision

Net profit reached Rs 543.53 crore, up 29% from Rs 421.25 crore in the year-ago period.
Recent Momentum in Key Markets
The growth reflected strong demand across the company's portfolio. Oberoi Realty sold luxury homes worth ₹8,109 crore in its newly launched project in Gurugram on strong consumer demand, with the company having announced its foray into the Delhi-NCR market with the launch of its first luxury housing project with a total investment of ₹6,000 crore and a revenue potential of ₹16,000 crore.
Margins and Operational Efficiency
The company reported an improvement in profitability, with its operating margin expanding to 56.65 per cent from 52.55 per cent in the year-ago quarter, while the net profit margin improved to 43.44 per cent from 35.87 per cent. Its debt-to-equity ratio declined to 0.17 from 0.21.
Stock Performance and Market Position
The company's stock was trading at Rs 1,889.5 as of the presentation date, positioned near the upper end of its 52-week range of Rs 1,391.2 to Rs 1,986.1. The revised target of ₹1,900 implies limited upside from current levels, consistent with Kotak's cautious stance despite the earnings acceleration.
