What is the News?
Jefferies, a prominent brokerage firm, has recommended a “Buy” call on Godrej Properties Limited with a target price of Rs. 2,420 per share, indicating an upside potential of 37.59 percent from its previous day’s close price of Rs. 1,758.90 per share.
Jefferies maintains a positive view on Godrej Properties because the promoters recently increased their stake by 5 percent, which signals strong confidence in the company’s future. The business is also focused on improving execution and strengthening cash flows, which are critical for consistent growth.

Additionally, Godrej Properties is expected to achieve about 20 percent growth in pre-sales in the medium term, driven by steady demand in the real estate market. As projects get completed and cash collections improve, the company is likely to become meaningfully free cash flow positive by FY28, supporting its valuation and justifying the target.
