Prestige Estates Projects Limited has submitted its Monitoring Agency Report to the stock exchanges for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

The QIP, which opened on August 29, 2024, and closed on September 4, 2024, had a gross issue size of ₹5000.00 crore. The net proceeds were initially estimated at ₹4900.60 crore but have been revised to ₹4899.17 crore. This revision is attributed to an increase in actual issue-related expenses by ₹1.43 crore as of March 31, 2026.
