India's Real Estate Sector Sees Surge in Institutional Investments
Real Estate:The Indian real estate sector has witnessed a significant surge in institutional investments, with a total of $2.52 billion invested in the April-June quarter of 2024. This marks a 20% increase from the same period last year, according to a report by Colliers India.

The industrial and warehousing segment led the way, accounting for 61% of total investments, with a significant $1.5 billion invested in the sector. This is likely due to the growing demand for e-commerce and retail consumption in India, which is driving the need for AI-enabled warehouses and micro-fulfillment centers.

The residential segment also saw a significant rise in quarterly inflows, with a 7.5 times increase compared to Q2 2023, capturing a 21% share of total institutional inflows into Indian real estate.

Foreign investments remained robust, accounting for 81% of the total inflows in Q2 2024, with investors from the US and UAE leading the charge. Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR together drove about 23% of the quarterly inflows, with multi-city deals continuing to drive the majority of investment inflows.

According to Piyush Gupta, managing director, Capital Markets and Investment Services at Colliers India,
