The Bengaluru-based developer also plans to launch 7-8 million sq ft area in 5 projects in 2017-18, its Managing Director Ashish R Puravankara said.
"We invested Rs 2,000 crore during last two fiscals on construction of projects. In this fiscal, our construction spend will be around Rs 750 crore as most of the projects are near completion," he told PTI.
On new launches, Puravankara said the company has a pipeline of over 22 million sq ft over the next two years in six markets -- Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Mumbai and Goa -- where it has presence.
"We expect to launch 7-8 million sq ft in this fiscal," he said, adding that the projects would comply with all the provisions of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016.

The company does not have any plans to expand presence in new cities and will continue to focus in these markets.
Puravankara's sales bookings rose by 29 per cent to Rs 1,168 crore last fiscal from Rs 907 crore in 2015-16.
Sales in volume terms went up by 7 per cent to 2.15 million sq ft while realisation improved by over 20 per cent.
Asked about acquisition of new projects, Ashish Puravankara said: "It is a constant process. Most of the acquisition will be through joint venture (JV) or joint development agreements (JDA)".
He said the company's net debt reduced by about Rs 300 crore in the last fiscal to Rs 2,139 crore and it will further come down with the help of internal accruals.
On realty law, Puravankara said it would be positive for the real estate markets and organised players would benefit from this legislation that seeks to eliminate fly-by-night operators.
