₹162 Cr with an EBITDA margin of 16.2%. In Q1 FY25, the company achieved a strong booking value of ₹ 611 Cr, primarily driven by demand for ‘The Addressby GS 2.0’ in Thane and the recently launched JDA ‘The Address by GS’ in Bandra.

Raymond Limited completed the acquisition of Maini Precision Products Limited (MPPL) on 29th March 2024. Starting from Q1 FY25, the company has consolidated the performance of its Engineering business to include MPPL. The segment has shown strong performance post-

acquisition, marking Raymond Group’s entry into the sunrise sectors of Aerospace, Defense, and EV components.

Commenting on the performance, Gautam Hari Singhania, Chairman C Managing Director, Raymond Limited said; “We are satisfied with our business performance in Ǫ1 FY25, which underscores the strength and resilience of our business strategy. Our Real Estate business continues to expand its portfolio through the JDA route and we have been appointed as preferred developer in our fourth project outside thane land in Bandra MIG. Additionally, our foray into the Aerospace business, following the acquisition of MPPL, is showing promising signs with its strong performance in the first quarter. During the quarter we have successfully demerged Lifestyle business into a separate company that will be listed in Ǫ2FY25.”

Q1FY25 Segmental Performance (Post IND AS 116)

 Real Estate business: the business showcased strong sales performance, with 108% growth to ₹ 488 Cr in Q1 FY25 from ₹235 Cr in the same quarter of the previous year. Sustained home demand and increased customer confidence in Raymond Realty projects were the quarter’s highlights, with our committed delivery timelines much appreciated by our customers. The segment reported an EBITDA of ₹ 85 Cr in Q1 FY25 from ₹54 Cr in Q1FY24.

Engineering business:  segment reported sales of ₹ 419 Cr in Q1 FY25, doubling revenue compared to ₹209 Cr in the same quarter of the previous year. Revenue for Q1 FY 25 includes revenue from MPPL of ₹220 Cr, which was acquired in March 24. The segment delivered an EBITDA margin of 13.2%.

Strategic Initiatives:

In line with our objective of simplification of group structure, Raymond Limited has initiated the vertical demerger of its Real Estate Business into its wholly owned subsidiary, Raymond Realty Limited (RRL). Upon completion of this demerger, Raymond Ltd and Raymond Realty Limited (RRL) will operate as separate listed entities within the Raymond Group, pending all statutory approvals. The new entity will seek automatic listing on stock exchanges, and according to the scheme of arrangement, each Raymond Ltd (RL) shareholder will receive 1 share of RRL for every 1 share held in Raymond Limited. This strategic move comes as Raymond’s Real Estate Business has achieved scale, reporting revenue of ₹1,593 Cr (43% YoY growth) and EBITDA of ₹370 Cr in FY24, positioning it well to chart its own growth path as a separate entity.

Lifestyle business operational highlights:

 The demerger of the Lifestyle business was completed on 30th June 2024. The listing of Raymond Lifestyle Limited is expected in the second quarter of this year, and the information pertaining to the operational highlights of the Lifestyle business are below.

During the quarter, our Lifestyle business was impacted due to subdued consumer demand, prolonged heat waves, general elections, fewer wedding dates and inflation, which impacted overall revenue performance and margins.

Operational Highlights of the Lifestyle Business

Net Revenue 1,249 1,353 (8%)
