Shapoorji Pallonji's housing platform to invest Rs.

750 cr on new
project.

Business conglomerate Shapoorji Pallonji's housing platform Joyville will invest around Rs. 750
crore to develop a new housing project in Pune.

Joyville Shapoorji Housing is a USD 200 million platform set up by Shapoorji Pallonji, ADB, IFC
and Actis to develop housing projects.

The company will develop nearly 1,350 housing units, including duplexes and penthouses, in this
new 9-acre project with an estimated sales revenue of over Rs. 1,000 crore.

"We have acquired about 9-acre land near Hadapsar in Pune to develop a new project," Joyville
Shapoorji Housing Managing Director Sriram Mahadevan told PTI.

He said the total development potential of this project is around 13 lakh square feet.

"In the first phase, we are launching two towers comprising 168 duplexes and penthouses. We did
a survey that suggested that there is a great demand for this type of product as people want to
upgrade their lives," Mahadevan said.

Asked about the project cost, he said the total development cost will be around Rs. 700-750
crore.

"We are expecting sales revenue of more than Rs 1,000 crore from the entire project,"
Mahadevan said. The first phase comprises the 'Sky-Luxe Edition' of duplexes and penthouses.

The towers will have 168 duplexes and penthouses with carpet areas of 1,220 to 1,326 square
feet.

The cost of duplexes will be Rs. 1.45 crore onwards.

The company will develop this entire project in phases over the next 5-6 years.

"We are happy to add this project to our growing portfolio and strengthen our presence in the
Pune market," Mahadevan said. Rapid infrastructure development has increased residential
demand in Hadapsar, he added.

Mahadevan highlighted this is the seventh project of Joyville platform and fourth in Pune. It has
launched one project each in Howrah (Kolkata), Mumbai and Gurugram.

Mahadevan said that delivery of all the projects is on schedule.

According to property consultants, housing demand bounced back strongly in 2022 to beat sales
achieved in 2019, pre-COVID level.

The consolidation of demand and new supply towards credible players has accelerated.

Almost all large listed players are reporting sharp growth in sales bookings in every quarter post
second wave of the pandemic, despite increase in interest rates on home loans by around 2
percentage points since May 2022.
