According to Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director of Knight Frank India, the Indian commercial real estate continues to thrive due to factors such as a return to work, rising office absorption, and strengthening rental values. The residential market has also seen a year-on-year strengthening, further bolstered by economic growth, which has incentivized funds to adopt a long-term perspective towards investment in real estate.
Mumbai has dominated the PE investment landscape, with a significant increase in investment inflows rising from $1.24 billion in H1 2023 to $1.70 billion in H1 2024. Bengaluru has also received a substantial share of PE investments, with approximately 20% of the total investment, at $581 million.
The report suggests that the Indian real estate market is poised for robust growth in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for housing and commercial spaces.
