A first-pass moat teardown of Oberoi Realty Ltd., built from single-pass filing evidence. Free note — provisional, and the full two-pass deep dive may revise it.

5.19 / 10

NARROWBrand-led

First-pass narrow read — primary edge in Switching Costs. Provisional, single-pass evidence.

Provisional score · subject to modification based on new evidence

Oberoi Realty Ltd. scores **5.19** on MoatSCORE 6.0 — a narrow moat in Realty. This is a **first-pass note**: the dimensional read and the filing receipts below come from a single GFIP evidence pass, not the full two-pass deep corpus behind our flagship deep dives. Provisional — published free while the deep version is queued.

The teardown 

## Seven dimensions of moat

Ordered by contribution. Each dimension carries a verified filing quote, graded **\[M\]** mechanism or **\[O\]** outcome.

D2Switching Costs6

M · Mechanism✓ Verified verbatim

“Future lease rentals of non-cancellable period of existing leases”

**Oberoi Realty Ltd.** · Xbrl Text

D4Price Discretion6

M · Mechanism✓ Verified verbatim

“ready apartments are selling upward of Rs. 50,000\. Some of them are selling at Rs. 60,000 on carpet, like probably 30%, 35% premium over market. And there is no resistance when we increase price.”

**Oberoi Realty Ltd.** · Earnings Call · p.3

D6Efficient Scale5.7

M · Mechanism✓ Verified verbatim

“We have announced business development activities close to 4 million square feet of development potential areas across diverse locations in MMR. 11 acres in Bandra East; Aram Nagar -Versova, about 2 million square feet.”

**Oberoi Realty Ltd.** · Earnings Call · p.2

D3Cost Advantage5.5

M · Mechanism✓ Verified verbatim

“Because even if you were to take that overheads at close to about 150 odd crores on a kind of a 4,000 crores or 5,000 crores odd top line and that barely works out to kind of a 3% number.”

**Oberoi Realty Ltd.** · Earnings Call · p.7

D5Intangible Assets5.2

M · Mechanism✓ Verified verbatim

“We witnessed strong sales velocity at Sky City despite the price hike we took recently, indicating healthy demand for luxury real estate from quality developers”

**Oberoi Realty Ltd.** · Earnings Call · p.2

D1Network Effects4.5

M · Mechanism✓ Verified verbatim

“we actually end up slowing down sales or stopping sales in some of the projects”

D7Counter-PositioningExcluded—

Excluded for this archetype.

D8Ungoverned RiskUnscored · Layer 2.5

D8 rating: **ADEQUATE**. Not part of the moat score — it governs the cost of equity and the fade window. First-pass; not yet deep-reviewed.

The barrier gate 

## The barrier gate — first-pass

Replication — can a rival copy it?6.0

How hard it is for a rival to copy the edge (first-pass estimate).

Bypass — can a rival route around it?6.0

How easily a rival can route around the edge (first-pass estimate).

Effective barrier 6 — at or above 6, consistent with a narrow read. First-pass estimate.

What would change our mind

1. **Deep two-pass review.** This draft rests on a single GFIP evidence pass; the full 10-year AR + concall corpus may move the read.
2. **The barrier gate.** A firmer replication or bypass estimate is the most likely thing to shift the band.
3. **Adverse events.** Any governance, regulatory or funding shock captured in D8 could re-rate the fade window.

First-pass note — provisional single-pass MoatSCORE 6.0 read, not the full deep dive. Educational research, not investment advice; no buy/sell recommendation, no price target. Moat & Margin is not a SEBI-registered Research Analyst or Investment Adviser.
