Highlights

Diversified portfolio of projects mitigates risks

PDL has de-risked its business model by building a diversified project portfolio. The company has diversified its focus from the residential and commercial developments to further include IT parks, SEZ's and BOT projects (DMRC). Thus it provides a good base to tackle the real estate cycle through the multiple revenue streams. PDL would retain about 20-30% of its commercial developments for rental income. In addition, the 11 DMRC stations are expected to earn Rs 2.6 billion of rental income from FY09E onwards. Thus these annuity streams of incomes differentiate PDL from the other developers, who are largely dependent on the property cycles.
