DRA Homes FY26 Growth Story: Chennai Developer Posts Record ₹864 Crore Pre Sales, Eyes Bigger Milestone in FY27

Chennai-based DRA Homes has closed FY 2025–26 on a strong note, posting its highest-ever annual pre-sales and collections, underlining the continued strength of the city’s residential real estate market.

The developer reported ₹864 crore in pre-sales during the financial year, a sharp jump from ₹525 crore recorded in the previous year. Collections also touched a new high of ₹526 crore, compared with ₹308 crore in FY25. The performance is significant as the company achieved these numbers entirely through its Chennai operations, without any external equity support.

The company described the achievement as a result of disciplined execution, transparent communication, and a strong focus on delivery timelines. Over the years, DRA Homes has built its brand around customer trust, on-time project completion, and carefully selected micro-markets across Chennai.

From a modest ₹6 crore in pre-sales during its first year in 2013, the company has steadily scaled its business, emerging as one of Chennai’s notable residential developers. The latest numbers reflect growing buyer confidence in well-established local developers who continue to focus on execution and market fundamentals.

According to the management, the company’s core strategy remains centred on strong brand positioning, disciplined pricing rather than discount-led sales, construction efficiency, customer-first service, and continuous innovation through automation.

Industry observers note that Chennai’s housing market has remained resilient, supported by end-user demand, infrastructure growth, and the expansion of emerging residential corridors. Developers with consistent delivery records are increasingly benefiting from this trend.

DRA Homes also credited its internal team and the broader Chennai real estate ecosystem for supporting this growth journey. The company has now set its sights on crossing the four-digit mark in FY 2026–27, signalling an ambitious growth roadmap for the coming year.

With demand momentum continuing in Chennai, the developer’s performance adds to the positive outlook for the city’s residential real estate sector.
