New Delhi, Mar 14 (PTI) Realty firm Signature Global is planning to invest around ₹4,000 crore to develop two new housing projects in Gurugram as part of its expansion plan, its Chairman Pradeep Kumar Aggarwal said.
In an interview with PTI, he said, in the next quarter, the company plans to launch more than 40 lakh square feet of area in two premium housing projects in Gurugram.
“We will be focusing on the ₹2-5 crore price bracket, where we are seeing huge demand but limited supply,” Aggarwal said.
He noted that the demand for residential properties, especially for big reputed players, remains strong, although he acknowledged that the frenzy seen in the last few years have subsided to some extent.
Asked about the total project cost to develop the two new housing projects, he said it will be around ₹4,000 crore, including land, construction and other costs.

Aggarwal expressed confidence in surpassing the sales bookings target for the current fiscal.
He also shared that the company is targeting to achieve zero net debt during the next fiscal on healthy internal cash flow.
The company has reduced its net debt in the October-December quarter to ₹740 crore, from ₹1,020 crore at the end of the second quarter of this fiscal year.
