5. BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Indias real estate sector continued to demonstrate resilience during FY 2025-26 and the first half of CY 2026, supported by sustained urbanisation, infrastructure investment, formalisation of the sector and growing demand for organised, professionally managed real estate services.
The residential market entered a phase of calibrated growth during Q2 2026. Across the top seven cities, approximately 1,06,000 units were launched, representing a 7% year-on-year increase. Housing sales stood at approximately 90,700 units, reflecting a 6% year-on-year moderation as rising property prices, geopolitical uncertainty and affordability pressures influenced buyer decisions. Available inventory increased by approximately 10% year-on-year to 6,16,500 units, highlighting the growing importance of disciplined pricing, differentiated positioning and focused sales execution.
Demand continued to shift towards higher-value housing. Homes priced above Rs.80 lakh accounted for approximately 75% of new launches during Q2 2026. Separate industry research indicates that homes priced above Rs.1 crore constituted 54% of residential sales across the top eight cities during H1 2026, compared with 49% in the corresponding period of the previous year. This reflects stronger demand from financially resilient end-users, investors and buyers seeking better amenities, locations and product quality.
MR remained the countrys largest residential market, recording approximately 28,700 unit sales in Q2 2026 and accounting for 32% of sales across the top seven cities. Pune recorded approximately 13,100 unit sales during the quarter. Together, MMR and Pune continued to represent two of Indias most significant residential markets, supported by employment creation, transport infrastructure, redevelopment activity and the expansion of peripheral growth corridors.
Commercial real estate maintained strong momentum. Office absorption across India reached a record 45.5 million sq. ft. during H1 2026, supported by Global Capability Centres, flexible workspace operators and domestic enterprises. Approximately 32 million sq. ft. of new office supply was completed during the period, the highest recorded for any first half. Vacancy across the top seven cities declined to approximately 15%, while average office rentals increased by 9% year-on-year, reflecting sustained demand for high-quality, compliant and well-connected assets.
These market conditions reinforce the relevance of JUSTOs mandate-led and data-driven operating model. The Companys capabilities across project strategy, positioning, marketing, sales, sourcing, capital markets, home finance and allied advisory services enable it to support developers across the real estate value chain. Its strong presence in MMR and Pune, expanding channel partner ecosystem and investment in technology and analytics position the Company to address an increasingly competitive and execution-focused market.
6. BUSINESS OUTLOOK
Indias economic fundamentals remain supportive of medium-term real estate demand, with the Reserve Bank of India projecting GDP growth of 6.7% for FY 2026-27.
Residential demand is expected to remain resilient but increasingly selective. Premium housing may retain its momentum, while rising prices and input costs could affect affordability in the mass and mid-income segments. Higher inventory levels will require developers to focus on product-market fit, calibrated launches, appropriate pricing and faster absorption.
MMR and Pune are expected to remain key growth markets, supported by infrastructure development, employment generation, redevelopment and the expansion of emerging corridors. However, performance is likely to vary across projects and micro-markets.
Office demand is expected to remain healthy, driven by GCCs, Grade A assets and flexible workspaces, although geopolitical uncertainty and evolving workforce strategies may influence leasing decisions.
JUSTO intends to deepen its presence in core markets, selectively enter new geographies and expand complementary verticals. Its integrated platform, developer relationships, channel partner network, technology capabilities and association with Chestertons India position the Company to pursue sustainable growth across residential, commercial and advisory opportunities.
7. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE
The commercial sector witnessed unprecedented expansion through FY 2024-25 and into FY 2025-26, underpinned by hybrid-work adoption and Indias emergence as the worlds preferred GCC destination. CY 2025 closed with gross leasing at a record 88.7 msf and net absorption rising 25% YoY to a milestone 61.4 msf across the top 8 cities. Active pipelines and rising pre-commitments have created a clear landlords market in core micro-markets.
Flex operators registered an all-time high leasing of 12.4 msf in 2024 and 6.5 msf in H1 2025, establishing India as one of the worlds most mature flexible office ecosystems. Strata-sale offices and emerging asset classes data centres (Savills projects 15-18 msf of incremental demand), warehousing, life sciences, and senior living are providing fresh avenues for institutional capital. Infrastructure rollouts including NMIA, MTHL, Pune Ring Road, and metro extensions are unlocking new investment corridors.
The holiday home segment also presents strong opportunities, with Goa retaining its spotlight on the back of scenic appeal and growing second-home demand. Indias organised second-home inventory in gated communities stands at 16,700 units, with West India (Alibaug, Sindhudurg, Goa) commanding 48% market share; coastal villas in Goa priced Rs.5-25 crore remain top choices for ultra-luxury buyers, with branded residencies delivering rental yields of 4.7%. Affordability is no longer the sole decisive factor; health & safety, community living, sustainability, and smart-home integration are now key drivers of home purchase decisions.
8. TRANSFER TO RESERVES:
During the year under review, the Company did not propose to transfer any sum to any reserves.
However, the Securities Premium Account increased from Rs. 1,216.41 Lakhs to Rs. 6,197.94 Lakhs, primarily due to the premium received on issue of shares during the year, net of issue-related expenses. An amount of Rs.81 Lakhs (Rupees Eighty One Lakhs) was transferred from Debenture Redemption Reserve to retained earnings in FY 2025-26 after redeeming NCD.
9. TRANSFER OF UNCLAIMED DIVIDEND AND UNCLAIMED SHARES:
