Raymond shares hit 5% upper circuit after Dalal Street prices in realty demerger
Shares of
Raymond Ltd
hit the 5% upper circuit at Rs 584.25 on the
BSE
Thursday, gaining sharply after the company concluded the
demerger
of its
real estate
arm,
Raymond Realty
, as part of a broader strategy to unlock value through standalone verticals.
The surge follows the completion of the demerger on May 1 and the record date on Wednesday, May 14, which determined eligible shareholders who will receive one share in Raymond Realty for every share held in Raymond Ltd. The newly carved-out entity is expected to list separately on the NSE and BSE by the September quarter of FY26.
'We are delighted to announce the successful demerger… This strategic move emphasizes our commitment to drive sustainable growth via pure play business,' said Chairman and Managing Director Gautam Hari Singhania.
Realty arm steps out with strong metrics
Raymond Realty, which has built a growing footprint in the
Mumbai Metropolitan Region
, exits the Raymond Ltd umbrella with a net cash surplus of Rs 399 crore. In the March quarter (Q4FY25), the business posted revenue of Rs 766 crore, up 13% year-on-year, and an EBITDA of Rs 194 crore with a margin of 25.3%.
Despite no new project launches in the quarter, Raymond Realty posted a healthy booking value of Rs 636 crore, led by demand for projects like The Address by GS 2.0, Invictus, and Park Avenue – High Street Retail in Thane, as well as The Address by GS in Bandra.
The realty unit is aggressively expanding its presence in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region through joint development agreements. In Q4FY25, it signed new JDAs in Mahim and Wadala, adding Rs 6,800 crore to its potential gross development value.
'With these additions the total potential revenue from our current Real Estate Business is now close to Rs 40,000 crore, which includes Rs 25,000 crore from our Thane Land parcel and Rs 14,000 crore from JDA led model,' the company said.
The listing of Raymond Realty will allow shareholders to directly participate in the real estate business while Raymond Ltd continues to operate its engineering and other legacy businesses. The demerger mirrors the September 2024 spin-off of Raymond group's lifestyle unit and is part of a wider effort to restructure the conglomerate into focused, independently run verticals.

RBI buyback sees strong demand with bids doubling notified amount
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) received bids Rs 53,031 crore against the notified amount of Rs 26,000 crore at the second buyback auction of this fiscal year. At the auction held on Thursday, the central bank accepted 99% of the notified amount. ADVERTISEMENT At the first buyback held last week, the RBI received bids worth Rs 27,256 crore, of which the central bank accepted Rs 23,856 crore or 95% of the notified amount, data showed. Buybacks are a way for the government to pay off debt for next fiscal year to reduce its gross borrowing. It also results in RBI infusing durable liquidity into the system. The RBI bought back five government bonds maturing in 2026 at Thursday's auction. The 5.63% 2026 government bond saw the highest demand with bids received at Rs 26,616 crore. Of this, the central bank accepted Rs17,402 crore. 'The strong demand at the buyback auction indicates that banks may have taken this opportunity to lighten their HTM book, especially because there are no OMOs on the horizon,' said Rajeev Pawar, head of treasury at Ujjivan Small Finance Bank. 'In a buyback, banks get to sell short-term bonds and replace them with longer maturity papers and lock-in yields. Further buyback auctions will depend on how the government spending pans out and on evolving liquidity conditions.' ADVERTISEMENT Bonds maturing in FY27 are more than double versus this year at Rs 6.48 lakh crore and are consistently high until 2032. The government has also budgeted Rs 2.5 lakh crore for bond switches this year, 60% more than the previous a bond switch, the government replaces bonds maturing in the near term with long-term debt. The RBI, on behalf of the government, is scheduled to conduct an auction on Monday to switch government securities worth Rs 25,000 crore. It will conduct the auction to switch nine government bonds maturing between 2026 and 2029 for papers with maturity between 2032 and 2062.
