Tirupati Development Uganda Limited (TDUL), is a privately owned real estate development and construction company in Uganda, the third-largest economy in the East African Community.

Overview

TDUL is a subsidiary of Tirupati Sarjan Limited, an Indian real estate and construction company, whose stock is traded on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).[1] The company has over a dozen real-estate projects in development or under construction in East Africa. Tirupati Development Uganda Limited is unique in its approach to real estate investment and development. It provides the development funding and also internally constructs its own buildings.
