Indian Real Estate Sector Sees Unprecedented Growth with $1.56 bn Deals in Q2 2024
Real Estate News: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. This represents a near eight-fold increase from the preceding quarter, according to a report by Grant Thornton Bharat. The report, titled 'Real Estate/REITs Dealtracker-Providing M&A and PE deal insights', highlights the robust activity in the Indian real estate market, driven by four high-value transactions.

Grant Thornton Bharat, a leading consulting firm, noted that the Indian real estate market has witnessed a robust growth trajectory in overall deal activity, primarily driven by substantial increases in domestic transactions and private equity (PE) investments. The report highlights that the M&A deals during the second quarter were valued at $123 million, as against $32 million in the preceding quarter. The private equity deals jumped 8.5 times to $1,439 million in April-June 2024 from $168 million in the preceding quarter.

The report further highlights that four top deals (all from the PE segment) alone accounted for 85% of the total deal value. The largest transaction 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. In the residential development segment, Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and Kotak Alternative Investment Fund invested $240 million in Prestige Estates Projects, and Indiabulls Constructions acquired Sky Forest Projects from Blackstone for $78 million.

Shabala Shinde, Partner and Real Estate Leader at Grant Thornton Bharat, attributed the surge in deals to economic recovery, increased investor confidence, and supportive government policies. 'The Indian real estate market has shown robust activity, with 19 deals totalling $1.6 billion. This reflects economic recovery, increased investor confidence, and supportive government policies, signalling a promising period for deal-making,' she said.
