How these figures are calculated
- Developer (primary) sales
- Sales where the developer is the seller, registered with the Dubai Land Department. Resales of its units by owners are excluded.
- Market share
- The developer's sales divided by all developers' sales over 1 Jan – 12 Nov 2026; ranks recomputed on number of sales (ties share a rank).
- Year-on-year
- This year to date against the same calendar span last year, so a part year is never compared with a full one.
- Delivery reliability
- On-time projects ÷ (on-time + late + overdue) × 100, over every project whose planned completion date has passed. Overdue = still active past the planned completion date.
- Absorption
- Share of the developer’s off-plan units sold to date.
