Higher demand helped India’s largest builder of homes, DLF, report strong earnings for the quarter through September.

In a 28 October stock market statement, the real estate giant said new sales bookings zoomed 77% year over year, to INR15.12bn ($202.1m) for the three months to 30 September, 2021.

Consolidated net profit shot up 61% year on year to INR3.80bn for the period under review, on a revenue of INR15.57bn.

Earlier in the day, DLF’s shares finished 4.31% lower at INR396.55 on the National Stock Exchange (NSE), valuing the property developer at around INR981.2bn. The shares have gained some 67% so far this year on the NSE.
