DLF, India’s leading real estate developer, saw its shares rise nearly 5% on Tuesday after reporting strong March-quarter (Q4) earnings and record-breaking FY25 sales. 

The company posted a 39% year-on-year increase in Q4 net profit, reaching ₹1,282 crore. 

This robust performance was driven by all-time high new sales bookings of ₹21,223 crore for the fiscal year: a key metric that signals growing demand and effective project execution.

SEBI-registered analyst Prabhat Mittal highlighted the technical strength behind DLF's recent rally.

He noted that the stock decisively broke past a major resistance level at ₹715 following the earnings announcement, a move further validated by the stock crossing its 200-day moving average. 

This crossover often signals a shift in the long-term trend and has reinforced bullish sentiment.

However, Mittal advises caution for traders at the current price, noting that the next key resistance lies at ₹793. 

Instead of entering at elevated levels, he recommends waiting for a price retracement to the ₹735–₹740 range before considering new long positions. 

A strict stop loss at ₹709 is suggested for such entries, with upside targets set at ₹793 and ₹900.

Institutional sentiment has also remained positive. Global brokerage Morgan Stanley maintained its ‘Overweight’ rating on DLF with a target price of ₹910, implying an upside of over 23% from current levels. 

The strong earnings and a healthy outlook for the real estate sector have boosted investor confidence. 

According to Stocktwits data, retail sentiment flipped from ‘bearish’ to ‘bullish’ last week, signaling a notable shift in trader positioning.
