What just happened

India Ratings and Research has assigned an IND A/Stable rating to the proposed Optional Convertible Debentures of Arvind SmartHomes Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Arvind SmartSpaces Limited.

The proposed OCD issuance is worth ₹100 crore. The rating agency adopted a top-down approach, considering the operational and strategic relationship between the subsidiary and its parent company.

Arvind SmartSpaces Limited carries an IND AA-/Stable rating, and Ind-Ra highlighted the importance of the parent’s support, shared management and the Lalbhai Group brand association.

Why this matters

The rating provides external validation of the subsidiary’s ability to access debt capital for business requirements.

Ind-Ra noted that Arvind SmartHomes has benefited from financial support from the parent, with loans extended to the subsidiary totalling ₹323.3 crore as of March 31, 2026.

The agency also highlighted upcoming projects expected to support revenue recognition in FY27 and FY28. Three projects covering 1.60 million square feet are expected to contribute to future operating performance.

Business performance and pipeline

Arvind SmartSpaces reported consolidated pre-sales of ₹1,550 crore in FY26 compared with ₹1,271 crore in FY25. Collections increased to ₹1,099 crore from ₹942 crore during the same period.

Revenue from operations declined to ₹564.1 crore in FY26 from ₹713.3 crore in FY25, while operating EBITDA stood at ₹151.9 crore compared with ₹168.2 crore a year earlier. EBITDA margin improved to 27% from 24%.

As of June 30, 2026, the company had 58.6 million square feet under construction and 31.2 million square feet in its pipeline. Arvind SmartHomes contributes around 10% of the parent company’s gross development value.

Leverage and liquidity position

The company reported consolidated net debt of ₹329.9 crore in FY26, compared with ₹37.7 crore in FY25, as it funded business development activities.

Ind-Ra expects net debt to net operating cash flow to remain in the 1.5x-2x range. The agency considers liquidity adequate, with consolidated cash and cash equivalents of ₹247.6 crore at the end of FY26.

What to track next

Investors will focus on project execution, sales velocity, collections and whether business expansion can generate sufficient cash flows while keeping leverage under control.

The rating assignment supports funding flexibility, but the long-term impact depends on converting the company’s large development pipeline into completed projects and sustainable cash generation.
