Of these, 6,853 units across ongoing projects accounted for 7.35 million square feet, while 219 units across completed projects accounted for 0.20 million square feet. A slowdown in property demand, higher interest rates, or financing constraints could delay sales or require price cuts, raising holding costs and affecting the company’s cash flows, liquidity, and financial condition.

Several of Runwal Enterprises’ subsidiaries have incurred losses and reported negative net worth during financial years 2026, 2025, and 2024. As of March 31, 2026, Runwal Real Estates Private Limited had a negative net worth of Rs 100.49 crore, while Wheelabrator Realty Private Limited and Evie Holdings Private Limited had negative net worth of Rs 17.14 crore and Rs 11.20 crore, respectively.

Runwal Enterprises reported negative cash flows from operating activities of Rs 180.71 crore, Rs 198.14 crore, and Rs 549.48 crore in FY26, FY25, and FY24, respectively. These were primarily due to working capital changes, including increases in inventories and other current assets, and income tax payments. The company also reported negative cash flows from investing activities of Rs 213.23 crore in FY26 and Rs 167.67 crore in FY25, mainly due to purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, investments in inter-corporate deposits and fixed deposits, and investments in subsidiaries. Prolonged negative cash flows could affect its liquidity, ability to operate its business and implement its growth plans, which may adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations.

As of the date of the Red Herring Prospectus, the development plans for all 33 upcoming projects of Runwal Enterprises were pending finalisation and approval. The company requires various statutory and regulatory approvals, including building and layout plan approvals, environmental clearances, fire safety and height clearance NOCs, commencement certificates and occupation certificates. Delays or failures in obtaining or renewing these approvals, changes in regulations, or difficulties in meeting conditions such as change-of-land-use requirements could delay or halt construction and adversely affect the company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Runwal Enterprises’ real estate development activities require significant capital for land acquisition and project development. As of March 31, 2026, its consolidated financial indebtedness was Rs 2,909.13 crore, while its total debt was Rs 2,979.37 crore. It also refinanced loans aggregating to Rs 207.50 crore during FY25 and FY26. Its ability to obtain additional debt or equity depends on its financial condition, cash flows, project requirements and prevailing financing conditions. Delays, cost overruns, regulatory changes or higher funding costs could increase its capital requirements, while failure to obtain financing on acceptable terms or on time could delay or reduce its ability to acquire land and develop projects, adversely affecting its business, financial condition and results of operations.
