Kalpataru IPO launch next week; focus on sub- ₹10 crore housing in MMR and Pune
Mumbai-based real estate developer Kalpataru, which is set to launch its Initial Public Offering (IPO) next week, announced that it will continue to focus on key markets including the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), Pune, and Hyderabad, where it already has ongoing projects.
The company noted that a majority of the housing demand falls within the ₹1 crore to ₹10 crore price bracket, which aligns with its existing inventory. Of its 50 million sq. ft. portfolio, approximately 70% is priced up to ₹10 crore, with a substantial portion available for under ₹3 crore.
To focus on redevelopment
“The demand if we go to see today is majority in the ₹1 crore to ₹10 crore segment, and this is what our supply is. Going further, we will adapt as per the demand. However, the majority of the demand, at least in Mumbai, is for ₹1 crore to ₹10 crore,” said Parag Munot, managing director, Kalpataru.
“We also have redevelopment projects in our portfolio, and we are very positive about redevelopment projects in MMR. There is no doubt that the MMR and Pune markets have good depth, but we also see depth in Delhi-NCR, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru,” Munot said.
