The company's consolidated revenue also witnessed notable expansion, with total income reaching INR 269.28 crore in Q2 FY25, a 257.75% rise from INR 75.27 crore recorded in the comparable quarter of the previous year. Kamal Singal, the Managing Director and CEO of ASL, highlighted the company's robust operational performance, evidenced by strong cash flows. Operating cash flow totalled INR 106 crore for the quarter and INR 203 crore for the half-year.
Singal added that ASL's cumulative new business development pipeline currently holds a topline potential of over INR 1,010 crore for the year-to-date, underscoring the firm's ambitious growth strategy. Sales bookings increased by 26% from the same quarter last year, reaching INR 464 crore in Q2 FY25, up from INR 369 crore in the corresponding period. Collections in the current quarter amounted to INR 249 crore, a slight dip from INR 263 crore in the same period last fiscal year.
ASL's debt metrics also reflected improvement, with net interest-bearing debt reducing to INR 195 crore as of September 30, 2024, from INR 58 crore at the end of June 2024. This resulted in a lower net debt-to-equity ratio, which dropped to 0.37 in Q2 from 0.12 in Q1. Among its recent launches, ASL introduced Aqua City in Kalyangadh, South Ahmedabad, near the quarter's end. The project garnered substantial interest, securing bookings surpassing INR 500 crore at launch.
Singal observed that ASL's recent launches across multiple micro-markets have set new benchmarks, reinforcing the company's growth momentum. In addition to its expansion in Ahmedabad, ASL acquired a new high-rise project located on ITPL Road near Whitefield, Bengaluru. This project holds a topline potential of INR 600 crore, spans across 2.9 acres, and includes a saleable area of 4.2 lakh square feet. Developed on a joint venture basis, this acquisition strengthens ASL's residential portfolio in one of the country's largest real estate hubs.
With this latest addition, ASL's business development pipeline now exceeds INR 1,010 crore in topline potential for the current fiscal year. ASL remains optimistic about the residential real estate market, especially in the mid-income and premium segments, with strong anticipation for a successful fiscal year. The company aims to leverage its growing pipeline of upcoming launches and new business ventures, positioning itself for sustained growth that aligns with shifting market trends and consumer demand.
