Financial Highlights
For the financial year ended March 31, 2026, the company delivered strong growth. Consolidated revenue from operations stood at Rs. 2,511.60 crore, compared to Rs. 2,059.97 crore in the previous year. Profit for the year reached Rs. 557.02 crore, an increase over the Rs. 425.82 crore recorded in the prior year. The Board of Directors has recommended a final dividend of 50%, amounting to Re. 1 per equity share, subject to shareholder approval.
Strategic Business Demerger
Recognizing the distinct risk profiles and capital requirements of its two primary business lines—Real Estate Development and Data Center Services—the Board has moved to constitute a committee to evaluate a potential merger or demerger. This strategic decision is intended to provide dedicated management focus, facilitate independent funding strategies, and ultimately unlock intrinsic shareholder value for each business segment.
Data Center Expansion Roadmap
The company continues to aggressively scale its Data Center portfolio, with a vision to capitalize on India’s growing digital infrastructure needs. Having entered the segment in 2019, the company has now signed an MOU with the Government of Andhra Pradesh to add 50 MW of IT load capacity. This brings the company’s total planned capacity to 357 MW. To achieve this growth, the company plans an investment of approximately Rs. 20,000 crore, further cementing its role in supporting the nation’s digital infrastructure initiatives.
Leadership Strengthening
As part of its growth strategy, the Board has appointed Sh. Anish Sarin as an Additional Director, designated as Whole-time Director, effective May 11, 2026. He will play a key role in steering the group’s long-term transformation into a technology-driven infrastructure leader.
