Q2FY24 Result Update – Steady quarter; new launches and project additions to step up
Quick Pointers:
♦ Kalyan and Nepean sea project to launch in Q3FY24 and H2FY25 respectively.
♦ Reiterated pre-sales guidance at Rs20bn for FY24E.
Sunteck Reality (SRIN) reported healthy pre-sales of Rs. 4bn; increased 17% YoY and 2% QoQ driven by high mid-income projects. However, collections declined by 26% QoQ as large part of sales were executed towards end of the quarter. SRIN’s proven ability to market ultra-luxury projects, aggressive and multi-pronged land acquisition capabilities in various micro markets across Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) is an interesting play on Mumbai’s high value real estate market. We expect company’s pre-sales to grow 2x over next 3 years aided by ongoing projects and strong new launches pipeline. Further given likely strong cash flow generation (Rs8-10bn over FY23-26E), we see SRIN to step up new project additions which will be a key catalyst for stock performance. Adoption of asset light model has enabled the company to acquire scale without straining its balance sheet and this will likely continue in new project additions too. Maintain ‘Buy’ rating with a TP of Rs. 565/share.
