SOBHA said that the financial year started with pandemic induced lockdown and the third wave hitting in Q4 causing uncertainty in the business environment, while the government implemented controls to limit the spread of the pandemic. Businesses opened up rather quickly with the housing sector recovering to normalcy, steadily towards Q3. This trend continued into Q4, backed by robust demand for housing that helped SOBHA Ltd. record one of its strongest quarterly performances.
The company achieved its highest ever sales volume in FY22 at 4.91 million square feet, which is approximately 22% higher than its sales volume in pre-pandemic FY19 as well as FY21.
Jagadish Nangineni, managing director, SOBHA, said, “We registered some of our best quarter figures during the year on the back of improved operations and steady sales with positive customer sentiment that resonated throughout the year.
SOBHA will prioritize operational excellence and cashflow, as it embarks on the next growth cycle in the real estate sector.”
