The company aims to explore new markets and segments, including commercial and residential projects, to fuel its growth. According to Bijay Agarwal, Managing Director of Sattva Group, the funding for the initiative will be structured with a combination of equity, debt, and sales.

Over the past seven months, the company has leased about 4.5 million sq ft of space, indicating a notable resurgence in corporate interest. Anticipating a 25% growth in rental income by FY25, Blackstone also aims to double its residential sales to Rs 6,500 crore.
