Management view on performance in Q2 FY19 

Commenting on the Q2FY18 results, Mr. Rohtas Goel, Chairman & Managing Director, Omaxe Limited said:

The rising crude oil prices and depreciation of Indian Currency notwithstanding, Indian economy is showing signs of resilience. In Q1 FY19, the economy clocked an impressive growth of 8.2% and the momentum is likely to continue in the current fiscal. The mood is clearly visible in the performance of various sectors. Several of the blue-chips companies have reported decent set of numbers, indicating the economy on the recovery mode.

The real estate sector too was showing signs of recovery, but with hardening of interest rates over the last couple of quarters and liquidity crunch in the system especially NBFC space, the road to recovery has not been smooth. But with our track record of delivery and quality, we witnessed greater interest of the buyers during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The company booked 0.7 mn sq.ft of space valued at INR 135 cr and delivered 0.58 mn. sq.ft at various locations put together.
