On Tuesday, UBS began coverage on DLF (NS:DLF) Ltd (DLFU:IN) stock, a prominent real estate company, with a Buy rating and a price target of INR1,005.00. The firm highlighted DLF's strong position in the National Capital Region (NCR (NYSE:VYX)), its focus on the ultra-luxury segment, and a solid track record of execution as key drivers behind the optimistic outlook.

DLF's strategic emphasis on both residential and commercial sectors, along with its robust pipeline for new launches, were cited as elements that support the company's growth trajectory. UBS anticipates a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in revenue and earnings of approximately 30% over the forecast period from FY24 to FY29.

The stock is currently trading at a one-year forward price-to-book (P/B) ratio of 4.3 times. UBS's assessment suggests that there is potential for an increase in the stock's value, leading to the establishment of the INR1,005.00 price target.

The firm also pointed out that DLF's healthy financials, characterized by a strong balance sheet and controlled leverage, position it well within the Indian property sector. The company's net cash status contributes to its financial stability and growth prospects.

Key catalysts for DLF's stock performance in the near future include the high demand for its ultra-luxury project Dahlias, expansion into new markets such as Mumbai, and the timely launch of DT Commercial Projects in locations like Gurugram and Chennai. These factors are expected to further propel the company's growth and reinforce its market leadership.
