AHPL, with its strategic positioning has created brand equity and is now among the top 10 real estate developers in Guntur, Andhra Pradesh.

AHPL has majorly executed its past projects in Andhra Pradesh (Guntur and Tirupati). AHPL has demonstrated its ability to diversify its geographical presence by constructing one of its biggest project in Hyderabad (Telangana) with total saleable area of 13.50 lakh sq ft covering 320 flats. AHPL’s plan to diversify in Telangana, through its project in Velimela (Hyderabad) is 1.5-2x times bigger than the past and on-going project at AHPL level. Telangana region is explored by AHPL with the brand presence of 'AADITRI' through past projects completed under the company name 'Siri homes infra India private limited'. The promoters have completed 5 projects covering an area of 96,916 square feet with a project cost of Rs.54 crores in Hyderabad. Acuité believes that AHPL would remain geographically concentrated until the successful completion of 'Aaditri Empire' in Hyderabad and receipt of healthy customer advances through the sale of entire units. Furthermore, AHPL would continue to remain exposed to intense competition from larger players in Telangana like Jayabheri group, Aparna Constructions and estates Pvt Ltd, Prestige Group, My Home group, Kalpataru Group, mantra Group, Lodha group, etc.
The real estate industry in India is highly fragmented with most of the real estate developers, having a city-specific or region-specific presence. The risks associated with the real estate industry are cyclical in nature of business (drop in property prices) and interest rate risk, among others, which could affect the operations.
