DLF Ltd reported total sales bookings of ₹16,176 crore during the April-December period of the 2025-26 financial year, according to recent news reports. A part of these bookings came from overseas buyers purchasing residential properties across the company’s projects. 

Non-resident Indians (NRIs) purchased properties worth about ₹5,247 crore during the 9-month period. This represented roughly 32.5% of the company’s overall pre-sales during the same timeframe. 

Rising Share of Overseas Buyers 

The share of NRI buyers in the company’s sales has increased in recent years. According to DLF Home Developers Managing Director and Chief Business Officer Aakash Ohri, overseas buyers accounted for about 5% of the company’s sales 3 years ago. 

Their share has since risen to around 30% in the current financial year. Industry estimates indicate that across 7 major housing markets in India, NRI buyers generally account for about 10-15% of residential sales. 

Comparison With Previous Years 

Reports suggest that in the previous financial year, DLF recorded total sales bookings of ₹21,223 crore. Out of this, properties worth around ₹3,500 crore were purchased by NRI buyers, accounting for roughly 16% of total sales. 

In the 2023-24 financial year, the company reported pre-sales of ₹14,778 crore. Overseas buyers contributed about ₹3,400 crore, or around 23%, to the total bookings during that period. 

Recent Project Launches 

DLF has launched several residential projects after the COVID-19 pandemic, including developments in Gurugram, Mumbai and the Chandigarh tri-city region. These projects include premium and luxury housing aimed at both domestic buyers and overseas investors. 

One of the larger launches was “The Dahlias” in Gurugram, introduced in October 2024. The 17-acre project includes 420 apartments and penthouses. By December 2025, around 220 units had been sold, generating sales of about ₹15,716 crore. 

Development Portfolio 

DLF operates in residential development and commercial property leasing. The company has completed more than 185 real estate projects covering over 352 million square feet. 

It currently has development potential of about 280 million square feet across residential and commercial segments. The company also holds an annuity portfolio of more than 49 million square feet of leased assets.
