Choice Equities Sticks to 'Buy' on Sobha Ltd
Choice Institutional Equities has reaffirmed its 'BUY' rating on Sobha Ltd, keeping the target price unchanged at INR 1,840 per share. The real estate developer's strong operational execution, shown by the delivery of 1.76 million square feet of completed projects, has boosted revenue, profit, and margins.
Strong Pipeline and Outlook Point to Growth
Management's outlook remains optimistic, supported by a solid launch pipeline and a strengthened balance sheet. Sobha Ltd expects to maintain strong pre-sales and collection figures. Projections show a 15-20% year-over-year growth in pre-sales for FY27E, building on a record INR 81.36 billion achieved in FY26. This pipeline includes nine recently launched projects covering approximately 6.04 million square feet across six cities in FY26.
Financial Outlook and Land Assets
Sobha anticipates generating net cash flows of INR 95.6 billion over the next four to five years from its current and completed projects. Future developments totaling 20.67 million square feet are expected to generate pre-sales of INR 271.65 billion. The 'BUY' rating is underpinned by the strength of its residential business, growth potential in the commercial segment, a stable contract and manufacturing division, and the company's substantial land bank.
