VMPL Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], August 9: Puravankara Limited (NSE: PURVA | BSE: 532891), one of India's most trusted and admired real estate developers, announced its financial results for the first quarter (Q1FY26) ending June 30, 2025. In Q1FY26, the company recorded sales of Rs 1,124 crores, up 6% year-on-year, on sales volume of 1.25 million sq. ft. The average realisation rose 9% to Rs 8,988 per sq. ft, while collections stood at Rs 857 crores.

In this quarter, we delivered a strong performance, with a 6% year-on-year increase in pre-sales, supported by healthy customer interest in our ongoing projects. Healthy collections for the quarter underscore the continued confidence that homebuyers have in our developments.

However, our team is confident of achieving the scheduled handover and launches. Our recent land acquisitions with an aggregate GDV potential of Rs 6,400 crores have further strengthened our growth pipeline. In Mumbai, redevelopment continues to gain traction, with our appointment as the preferred developer for eight housing societies in Chembur (GDV over Rs 2,100 crores). In the South, we have entered a JV for a 24.59-acre parcel near the airport in North Bengaluru (GDV over Rs 3,300 crores) and signed a JDA for a 5.5-acre parcel in Balegere, East Bengaluru (GDV over Rs 1,000 crores).

‘UP ahead of Maha, Guj in energy demand driven by industrial growth'
Lucknow: UP has surpassed industrial states like Maharashtra and Gujarat in peak energy consumption, touching 31,500 megawatts this year — a sign of rapid industrial growth and rising energy needs. This was stated by additional chief secretary of energy, renewable energy and technical education Narendra Bhooshan during the TOI Dialogues on Thursday. "With a population of 25 crore and energy demand growing by 8-10% annually, UP has now overtaken even the most industrialised states. Energy is no longer just a utility — it is the enabling force behind our economic transformation," he said. Bhooshan said energy is central to India's push to become a 1 trillion dollar economy and linked the state's plans to PM Narendra Modi's COP26 commitments: Net Zero by 2070, 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030, and 50% renewables. "Our Chief Minister has aligned UP's energy strategy with these national goals. The state's commitment is strong — not just to meet growing demand but to do so sustainably," he added. A landmark reform underway is the privatization of two large electricity distribution companies (discoms) — the biggest such move in the country. "If we succeed in this, the rest of India will follow. This is a high-stakes reform aimed at improving service delivery, efficiency and competitiveness," Bhooshan said. On renewables, he highlighted the PM Suryaghar Muft Bijli Yojana, launched along with the Ram Temple inauguration in Ayodhya, which targets 22 GW of rooftop solar. "UP has 5 crore households. Even if 2.5 crore homes install 2 KW rooftop systems, it will create a solar revolution — generating power, reducing bills and creating jobs," he said. Solar manufacturing units worth Rs 8,000 crore have been sanctioned in Noida and Greater Noida, drawing investors such as Adani, Tata and others. Under PM-KUSUM, 4 lakh irrigation connections have been solarised out of 16 lakh. For industry, captive and group solar parks — including projects in Bundelkhand — are supplying power at Rs 2.5–3 per unit versus Rs 8-10 from discoms. To provide round-the-clock power, UP is promoting Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and Pumped Storage Projects (PSPs), recording India's lowest-ever BESS tariff at Rs 3.115 per unit. Two PSPs have been sanctioned in Sonbhadra and Vijayapur. The state is also testing vertical wind turbines on expressways and tapping kinetic energy from rivers and canals, he said. UP leads the country in compressed bio-gas (CBG) capacity with 108 projects approved and aims for at least one plant in each tehsil using paddy straw, sugar waste and cow dung. "CBG offers the best return on investment, with payback in three to four years. It can fuel kitchens, vehicles and industries," he said. Green hydrogen is being encouraged through incentives, including a 30% capital subsidy and full SGST reimbursement; a Rs 2,500 crore subsidy has been approved for an Rs 8,000 crore project. Bhooshan also urged industry to help design courses in cybersecurity, mechatronics and LSI design. An Rs 8,000 crore project with Tata Technologies will upgrade 121 polytechnics. Highlighting UP's logistics edge — 33% of the nation's expressways and the junction of the Eastern and Western Freight Corridors at Greater Noida — he said exports that once took days can now move in hours. "If you have a project — come to Uttar Pradesh. If you're here — expand," he concluded. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

We are in a sell-on-rise market; accumulate Paytm and Nykaa for long-term gains: CA Rudramurthy BV
Live Events You Might Also Like: Biggest positive trigger for markets would be a sustainable resolution of tariff issue: Abhay Agarwal (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel , MD,says till we cross 56,000 for Bank Nifty and 24,800 for Nifty, this will remain a sell-on- rise market. This is a good time for long-term investors. Paytm and Nykaa stocks are recommended for portfolio inclusion. Accumulate Paytm around current levels, targeting Rs 1,350-1,500. Nykaa is also a strong buy at the current price. Investors can accumulate on dips, targeting Rs 245-250. These targets are expected within six months to one year. Risk-reward favors buying these new-age stocks Sell-on-rise is a simple strategy which the market is holding on to and even as for Nifty, on 12th of May, 24,350 was a very, very crucial support for Nifty. Yesterday, we went to those levels and saw a bounce, but that bounce was more to do with a short covering that we saw because of an expiry day and now we are again back to lower levels and the market is definitely a sell on rise for a very short we break the 24,350 level, further lower levels closer to 24,000 and then even 23,800 is possible. The market is more sector and stock specific, but we should definitely accept that it is a sell-on-rise market and even though FIIs are short over 90%, there is still no respite whatsoever and unless we get a trigger – either the Trump tariff ending and Trump becoming more friendly with India or any other trigger which can make those shorts get covered, this market is still a sell- on-rise and for Bank Nifty crucial levels, right now the support is at around 56,000 and we are closer to those levels. Once we break that, another 1,000, 1,500 point move on the downside can be till we cross 56,000 for Bank Nifty and 24,800 for Nifty, this will remain a sell-on- rise market.: These are great times for long-term investors to buy good stocks for their portfolios. Look at this quarter's results; where the results were good, but stock prices have gone nowhere, those are the stocks I would prefer to buy on every dip for my portfolio. One such stock is Paytm. I will accumulate Paytm at current market price and on dips to levels closer to 1,000 with a stop loss of Rs 970. I am also looking at targets of Rs 1,350-1,500 which can come over the next six months to one year. That will be a 30-50% rise from the current market stock which looks very strong to me, and where risk-reward is favouring a buy at current price is Nykaa. I am bullish on new age as a sector and Nykaa is a good buy at current market price and on dips to levels closer to 200, accumulate Nykaa for your portfolio, keep a stop loss of 190 and look at targets of Rs 245-250 to come from current market price.
