“In past nine months (April-December) of the year 2022, we experienced strong growth in new sales bookings. Demand for high-quality products drives sales “Ohri stated. He stated that the company has launched apartments and independent floors at various price points, which has contributed to increased sales.

When asked about sales bookings, Ohri stated that the company has set a target of 8,000 crore for the financial year 2023 and expects to meet it comfortably.
