The company filed the requisite forms with the Registrar of Companies, Mumbai, marking the completion of the amalgamation process that received NCLT approval earlier this month.

Merger Implementation Complete

Following the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Mumbai approval dated April 6, 2026, Oberoi Realty has now made the merger scheme effective by completing all regulatory requirements. The company disclosed this development under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

NCLT Approval Background

The Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench-I, comprising Hon'ble Member (Technical) Shri Prabhat Kumar and Hon'ble Member (Judicial) Shri Sushil Mahadeorao Koche, had approved the merger scheme under CP (CAA) NO. 14/MB/2026 in CA (CAA) NO. 264/MB/2025. The scheme involves the amalgamation of Nirmal Lifestyle Realty Private Limited (transferor company) with Oberoi Realty Limited (transferee company).

Company Structure and Background

Nirmal Lifestyle Realty Private Limited, bearing CIN U67120MH1995PTC094461, was originally incorporated on November 14, 1995, as Sardarmal Prithviraj Investments & Finance Limited. The company underwent several name changes, becoming Nirmal Holdings Limited in August 2000, before converting to a private limited company in November 2009 with its current name.

Strategic Benefits and Rationale

The completed merger achieves several strategic objectives for the combined entity through comprehensive operational improvements. The consolidation creates substantial value for stakeholders while streamlining business operations and enhancing operational efficiency.

Regulatory Compliance Completed

The merger received comprehensive regulatory clearance with all statutory requirements addressed. Multiple authorities filed reports confirming compliance, and no objections were received from statutory or regulatory bodies.

The petitioner companies have undertaken to comply with all statutory requirements under the Companies Act, 2013, Income Tax Act, 1961, GST regulations, and RERA provisions. The scheme was unopposed, facilitating smooth implementation.

With the merger now effective, Oberoi Realty has successfully streamlined its corporate structure while maintaining its strong position in the real estate development and hospitality sectors.

Oberoi Realty faces a cautious outlook from Jefferies, which has maintained its Hold rating while adjusting the target price downward. The brokerage has reduced its target price to ₹1,680 from the previous ₹1,700, reflecting concerns about near-term market dynamics and external factors affecting the real estate sector.

Revised Growth Projections

Jefferies has significantly trimmed its pre-sales growth expectations for the company, projecting a modest growth of approximately 6% year-on-year for FY27. This represents a substantial reduction from the robust 21% growth achieved in FY26, highlighting the anticipated slowdown in market momentum.

Market Challenges and External Factors

The brokerage has identified several key factors contributing to the revised outlook. The Middle East conflict is expected to create uncertainty and lead to a slowdown in home-buying decisions during Q1FY27. Additionally, the market environment has become more challenging with interest rates and capitalization rates rising by 50 basis points, which could impact both buyer sentiment and project valuations.

Valuation Assessment

Despite the near-term headwinds, Jefferies notes that the sharp valuation correction in the stock is likely to limit further downside. The brokerage's Hold rating suggests that while growth prospects have moderated, the current valuation levels provide some protection against significant losses, even as demand pressures persist in the immediate term.
