DLF Limited Reports 16 Percent YoY Increase in Consolidated Net Profit for FY2025-26

Delhi NCR-based listed real estate developer, DLF Limited, has reported a 16 percent year-on-year increase in consolidated net profit before exceptional items for FY2025-26. This growth is supported by strong housing demand, higher sales bookings, and continued cash generation from its development and rental businesses.

The company posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 4,256 crore for the financial year, while consolidated revenue stood at Rs 10,174 crore. EBITDA for the year came in at Rs 3,070 crore, as announced by the company on May 13 while releasing results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

DLF's board has also recommended a dividend of Rs 8 per share for FY26, representing a 33 percent increase over the previous year's payout. This reflects the company's confidence in its financial performance and commitment to rewarding its shareholders.

DLF reported record net cash surplus generation of Rs 7,746 crore during FY26, up 25 percent year-on-year. The company ended the fiscal with a net cash position of Rs 14,155 crore and said its development business remained debt free on a gross basis. Sales bookings for the year stood at Rs 20,143 crore, driven largely by demand for luxury and premium residential projects in Gurugram and Mumbai.

Among key contributors was the company's Privana North project in Gurugram, which generated sales bookings of more than Rs 11,000 crore. Its Mumbai project, DLF Westpark, recorded sales of over Rs 2,300 crore, while super-luxury project The Dahlias contributed bookings exceeding Rs 4,800 crore.

Industry analysts say India's luxury housing market has continued to outperform broader residential segments, particularly in major metropolitan regions where demand from high-net-worth individuals and non-resident Indians has remained strong.

For the January-March quarter, DLF reported consolidated revenue of Rs 2,452 crore and net profit of Rs 1,265 crore. For Q4FY26, the company's EBIDTA stood at Rs 691 crore.

DCCDL's consolidated EBITDA in FY26 stood at Rs 5,718 crore. The company said its rental portfolio of around 50 million square feet continued to operate at occupancy levels of about 95 percent.

The company said it remains focused on upcoming launches across residential and rental businesses amid continued demand in the premium and luxury real estate segments. With an identified launch pipeline ahead, DLF remains well positioned to leverage this sustained demand momentum through a calibrated and value-accretive strategy.

On May 13, DLF's shares on BSE closed 0.90 percent higher at Rs 574.15 apiece.
