The index, published by JLL, a real estate services company, is a benchmark for real estate market transparency that evaluates the legal and regulatory environment, enforcement mechanisms, and data availability across a wide range of geographies.
According to the index, India has made a remarkable leap forward in this year's index, reaching the transparent tier for the first time. The index highlighted that this progress is a result of institutionalisation in the commercial market and improved access to diverse real estate datasets.

The top slot under the High Tier has been taken by the United Kingdom (1.24) and France (1.26). In the last index in 2022, India was ranked 36th under the semi-transparent tier in 2022.
