Raymond jumps 7% on first project launch outside Thane

In the last one year, Raymond stock has outperformed Nifty in terms of returns as it rose 45 percent compared to 24 percent rise in the benchmark during this period.

Raymond's share price rose over 7 percent on February 21, a day after the group's real estate arm Raymond Realty announced the launch of its first project outside Thane ‘The Address by GS, Bandra’.

The move followed the company’s plan for expansion beyond Thane through joint development agreements (JDAs) in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).

"As the name suggests, this development is inspired by the tremendous success of Thane’s flagship project ‘The Address by GS’ which has emerged as Thane's bestseller in premium category and is set to be delivered two years ahead of its timeline," the company said in a release.

‘The Address by GS, Bandra’ project spreads over an area of 2.74 acres, offering a gated community in Bandra East with connectivity to locations like Bandra-Kurla Complex, and Bandra-Worli Sea link along with the rest of the city.

The project will offer a mix of 2, 3, and 4 BHK apartments. "This project promises substantial economic returns, with projections indicating a revenue generation over Rs 2,000 crore," Raymond said.
