Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) dominated the investment landscape, accounting for 65% of the total investments, worth $3.1 billion. Domestic investors, however, also played a significant role, representing 35% of the investments. This trend is a continuation of the previous year, where domestic investors accounted for 37% of the investments.
The residential sector emerged as a clear favourite among investors, with 25 deals worth $1.6 billion, surpassing the office sector by 25% in terms of transaction volume. Domestic investors showed a greater inclination towards residential properties, while foreign investors continued to favour the office and warehousing sector.
The warehousing sector led the investment charts, with a 34% share, followed closely by residential at 33% share. However, it's essential to note that the warehousing sector's investment surge was primarily driven by a single deal, which accounted for over 92% of the total transaction volume.
The residential sector achieved an all-time high half-year investment of $1.6 billion, attributed to regulatory reforms and improved transparency in the segment over the last 5-7 years. Investment towards this sector primarily weighed towards debt, with 68% of the deals being structured debt.
The JLL report predicts increased investment in emerging sectors like data centres, life sciences, student housing, and health care. This diversification will create new opportunities for investors and further strengthen India's real estate market.
