May 19, 2022 – Real estate developer DLF Ltd will be REIT ready in the next couple of months after completion of a majority of the preparatory work, senior executives of the company told investors during the Q4 analyst call.

We will, I think, sometime in the next four weeks have a Cybercity board meeting. So those issues are now hopefully behind us and we should be completely ready in the next few months, “said Ashok Kumar Tyagi, Whole Time Director & CEO of DLF Limited. 

DLF had hired three top advisory firms – Morgan Stanley, KPMG, and Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co – to help it prepare its rental-yielding commercial assets for a REIT listing in February of last year.

I would hate to conjecture on a speculative timeline, but as far as readiness is concerned, I think we are making good progress, “Tyagi said.
