Chairman Speech
Dear Shareholders,
I extend my warm wishes for you and your families to be in good health as this message
reaches you.
Luxury lies at the core of Sunteck's identity and as such we firmly uphold the notion
of true luxury within our brand. We take immense pride in consistently maintaining a touch
of luxury across all our projects, catering to a diverse range of segments, from uber-
luxury, premium luxury to aspirational luxury and upgrading lifestyles.
Our in-house construction capabilities empower us to execute projects swiftly, while
upholding uncompromising standards of quality through rigorous supervision. Our commitment
lies in crafting customer-centric projects and designs that precisely meet the needs of
our valued clients.
I would like to begin by reaffirming the guiding principles of the new Sunteck, which
we proudly refer to as Sunteck 3.0. This transformative approach centres around three key
priorities that drive our actions and aspirations.
Firstly, we are firm in our commitment to maintain a robust balance sheet and ensure a
healthy cash flow. This financial strength enables us to weather challenges and seize
opportunities confidently.
Secondly, our focus remains on pursuing marquee acquisitions that align perfectly with
our well-crafted business development strategy. These endeavours contribute to our growth
and reinforce our position as a leader in the industry.
Lastly, building an exceptional team lies at the core of our vision. We recognise that
the strength of our people fuels our success, and we continue to invest in nurturing
talent and fostering a culture of excellence.
With Sunteck 3.0 as our guiding compass, we forge ahead with determination and
enthusiasm, aiming to achieve new heights of success in all our pursuits.
In the past year, we have achieved remarkable and sustained growth in both pre-sales
and collections, marking our best-ever performance till date. The FY23 concluded with an
impressive Rs.1,602 Crores in presales and Rs.1,250 Crores in collections.
This strong operational performance has generated a surplus operating cash flow of over
Rs.425 Crores during FY23 alone. Over the last three financial years, our cumulative
surplus operating cash flow stands at nearly Rs.950 Crores. This substantial cash flow has
not only supported aggressive acquisitions but has also significantly reduced our net
debt-equity ratio from 0.22 to 0.10 in the past three years. This reaffirms our faith in
the robust business model built by us which has yielded operating cash flow surplus yield
of close to 22% on the net worth for the financial year gone by.
These accomplishments demonstrate our commitment to financial strength and sustainable
growth, positioning us for even greater success in the future.
During FY23, we successfully launched two new projects - Sunteck Beach Residences at
Vasai West and Sunteck Sky Park at Mira Road. Both projects received an overwhelming
response from customers, reflecting a strong demand for our product offerings. After our
last launch of Sunteck Sky Park at Mira Road, we now have five projects as growth engines
which will continue to deliver strong cash flows and profit margins for your company. As
we step into FY24, the upcoming launch of existing and new projects holds the promise of
sustained growth for us.
We are creating annuity income and also expanding our rental portfolio; with two
projects at BKC junction, one which is Sunteck BKC 51 that is already pre-leased for an
impressive tenure of 29 years and delivered a strong return on invested capital. The
second commercial project is Sunteck Icon, at the same prime location which is nearing
completion and we are determined to pre-lease it on long term.
At Sunteck, we are deeply aware of the impact the real estate sector has on both
society and the environment. Managing these impacts responsibly has always been an
integral part of our undertakings.
We are proud to have received EDGE Green Building Pre-Certification for a total of six
projects, including four residential and two commercial developments. These certifications
are awarded by EDGE-IFC (World Bank Group) which reflects our commitment to design
sustainable, next-generation buildings that prioritise the well-being of our environment.
Sustainability is an integral part of our culture at Sunteck Realty, and we will continue
to take systematic steps to uphold these principles in all our endeavours.
Additionally, we have achieved three ISO certifications, including ISO 9001:2015 for
the quality management system, ISO 14001:2015 for the environmental management system, and
ISO 45001:2018 for occupational health and safety management system. These accomplishments
highlight our dedication to continuous improvement in all aspects of our processes,
policies, and communication, as we continue to strive for sustainable growth.
We embrace challenges as stepping stones to success and approach them with resilience
and determination. Our dedicated team has been consistently working over the years to
establish the 'Sunteck' brand as a symbol of luxury living and financial stability with
strong cash flows. We are committed to upholding this brand promise and will continue to
set new industry benchmarks.
Lastly, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every member of the
Sunteck family, including our devoted employees, esteemed customers and reliable partners
for your constant trust and support. Your contributions have been pivotal in our success,
and we eagerly anticipate continuing this journey together. Thank you all.
Warm regards,
Kamal Khetan
