DLF has now successfully completed the entire process of transformation of its balance sheet.

With a strong balance sheet and completion of all legacy projects, the company will now work to monetise its completed inventory with enhanced focus on one hand and create the future pipeline of projects to fuel growth on the other.

DLF said it has plans to develop 17 million square feet (MSF) of space in commercial and residential segments.

DLF's wholetime director, Ashok Tyagi, said "Our strategy of Build and Sell has worked out to be a successful one. Given the overhang owing to numerous factors, the markets are expected to lean towards developments which are either complete or at advanced stages of completion and mitigate various risks perceived to be attached to under construction projects. Given this belief, the company has embarked on development of new asset build-out at select marquee locations, in both residential and commercial segments, which will enable sizeable build over the time period in which existing inventory gets sold."

DLF is a real estate developer, having approximately 221 MSF of development potential across residential and commercial segment.
