Updated: 2009-10-26 11:02 China Vanke, the country's largest property developer by market value, said Sunday that it raked in a net profit of 2.96 billion yuan ($433.38 million) in the first three quarters of this year, up 29.9 percent year-on-year. The company's business revenue in the first three quarters surged 31.1 percent year-on-year to 29.54 billion yuan, it said in the quarterly report to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
The company's housing sales totaled 5.57 million sq m for the whole of 2008, down 9.2 percent year-on-year amid a stagnant property market. Its net profit declined 16.7 percent in 2008 from the previous year. China's property market has seen price and sale hikes after February this year boosted by rising demand. In the third quarter, the company posted a net profit of 430 million yuan, more than doubled compared with the same period last year. (For more biz stories, please visit Industries)
