Indian Real Estate Sector Sees Unprecedented Growth in Q2 2024
Real Estate:The Indian real estate market has shown remarkable resilience and growth in the second quarter of 2024, with deals worth $1.56 billion being closed during the April-June period. According to a report by Grant Thornton Bharat, a leading consulting firm, this represents a near eight-fold increase from the preceding quarter, which saw deals worth only $200 million.

The report, titled 'Real Estate/REITs Dealtracker-Providing M&A and PE deal insights', highlights the robust growth trajectory in overall deal activity, primarily driven by substantial increases in domestic transactions and private equity (PE) investments. The M&A deals during the second quarter were valued at $123 million, as against $32 million in the preceding quarter. Moreover, private equity deals jumped 8.5 times to $1,439 million in April-June 2024 from $168 million in the preceding quarter.

The report attributes this surge to four high-value transactions, which accounted for 85% of the total deal value. One of the largest transactions of the quarter was Brookfield India Real Estate Trust's acquisition of four grade A commercial assets from Bharti Enterprises in Delhi for $723 million. Other notable deals include Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and Kotak Alternative Investment Fund's investment of $240 million in Prestige Estates Projects, and Indiabulls Constructions' acquisition of Sky Forest Projects from Blackstone for $78 million.

Shabala Shinde, Partner and Real Estate Leader at Grant Thornton Bharat, noted that the Indian real estate market has shown robust activity, driven by economic recovery, increased investor confidence, and supportive government policies. This signals a promising period for deal-making and growth in the sector.
