Domestic investors infused USD 0.5 billion in the second quarter, nearly three times the amount invested in the same period last year.
Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR cumulatively attracted about 23% of the inflows in the last quarter. The industrial and warehousing segment saw an 11-fold increase in investments compared to the same period last year, led by select large deals in the segment.
The rising demand for superior quality Grade A supply and evolving supply-chain models has significantly improved investor confidence in the segment. With healthy demand momentum, global as well as domestic investors are expected to play a prominent role in the consolidation of industrial and warehousing assets in the country.
The growth in e-commerce and retail consumption in India is also expected to attract various asset-level investors, boosting the demand for AI-enabled warehouses and micro-fulfilment centres in the upcoming quarters.
