New Delhi, August 8, 2025 — DLF Ltd, India’s largest real estate firm, plans to invest ₹ 23,500 crore to complete its housing projects in Delhi-NCR and Mumbai. DLF announced the amount in its latest investor presentation. 

The ₹ 23,500 crore is the total amount that DLF needs to finish all of the residential projects that have been launched. DLF has a solid financial position and the means to cover the cost. DLF has ₹ 10,429 crore in cash, with ₹ 7,782 crore held in RERA escrow accounts to protect homebuyers. Additionally, DLF has total receivables of ₹ 37,220 crore from customers who have purchased homes.

In a recent held call with market analysts, DLF’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) stated that DLF spent nearly ₹750 crore on construction in the first quarter of this financial year. This number is anticipated to increase slightly over the next few months.

Strong Sales and Successful Launches
