Depend on a limited number of third party contractors to construct its redevelopment projects and thus any delay/cost overrun may result in reduced profits or penalties etc.
Redevelopment projects are awarded through competitive bidding processes and satisfaction of prescribed qualification criteria as setout by the cooperative housing society. Thus, the inability to acquire redevelopment projects will impact the growth.
Exposed to delays and uncertainties in project completion due to administrative or regulatory delays and legal disputes.
Experienced negative operating cash flows in FY2026 and FY2025.
Inability to acquire TDRs required to develop area beyond the permissible FSI for a redevelopment projects at fair/expected price or may affect its ability to increase the size and scope of redevelopment project leading to lower revenue.
