    Sobha share price rallied nearly 9 percent intraday Monday as global brokerage house CLSA has maintained its buy rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 525 after strong pre-sales data.

    The Bangalore-based real estate company during the second quarter achieved new sales volume of 8.61 lakh square feet total valued at Rs 675.1 crore with an average realisation of Rs 7,840 per square feet.

    The company has achieved this growth without launching any new projects during the quarter.

    This showed the growth of 5.6 percent and 8.3 percent in sales volume and total sales value compared with previous quarter, respectively while on year-on-year basis, sales volume was marginally higher and total sales value increased by 22.5 percent in Q2FY18.

    "The new sales value of Rs 592.7 crore achieved during the second quarter of 2017-18 is highest in past 10 quarters," it said.
