Realty major DLF Ltd on Monday reported a marginal 4 per cent increase in its consolidated net profit to Rs 793.90 crore for the quarter ended June as the company recorded a huge fall in its total income.

The company's net profit was Rs 762.67 crore in the year-ago period.

On the operational front, DLF reported sales bookings at Rs 657 crore for April-June, a sharp decline from Rs 11,425 crore in the corresponding period a year ago.

The company attributed the fall in sales bookings or pre-sales to deferred launches of its housing projects.

With sustained customer demand, strong brand positioning, deep market presence and a defined launch pipeline, we remain confident of achieving our stated medium-term growth goals," DLF said.

"We remain steadfast towards driving steady and sustainable long-term growth in our annuity business by measured capital deployment to build out high quality destinations," the company said.

During the current fiscal, three new retail destinations aggregating 1.5 million sq ft of gross leasable area are expected to drive significant growth in retail business.

"With a significant land bank, a robust launch pipeline across development and rental businesses, a strengthened balance sheet and consistent cash flow generation, DLF is well positioned to capitalise on the structural upcycle in the sector," the company said, adding it remains focused on delivering sustained, profitable growth and long-term value for all stakeholders.
