SM REITs Set to Revolutionize India's Commercial Real Estate Market
Real Estate Pune:The Indian commercial real estate market is on the cusp of a significant transformation, driven by the growth of Small and Medium Real Estate Investment Trusts (SM REITs). According to a report by CBRE South Asia Pvt. Ltd, the potential market size for SM REITs in India is expected to surpass USD 60 billion by 2026.

This growth is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for commercial office space, particularly in cities like Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, and Bengaluru. Mumbai, in particular, is leading the charge, with a potential SM REIT-ready completed office stock of 75 million sq. ft. as of June 2024. The city is also expected to see an additional 10 million sq. ft. of impending supply by 2026.

Delhi-NCR follows closely, with over 70 million sq. ft. of completed office stock, while Bengaluru and Hyderabad have recorded 50 million sq. ft. and 30 million sq. ft., respectively. Additional cities like Pune, Kolkata, and Chennai are also expected to contribute to the growth, with 25 million sq. ft. of completed supply and an additional 14 million sq. ft. expected by 2026.

The growth of SM REITs is expected to have a significant impact on the Indian commercial real estate market, providing investors with a new and innovative way to invest in the sector. With the market expected to comprise over 300 million sq. ft. of completed commercial office space by 2026, SM REITs are poised to play a key role in shaping the future of India's commercial real estate landscape.

The current total completed office stock in India stands at over 800 million sq. ft., with REIT-listed office inventory recorded at over 88 million sq. ft. As the market continues to grow, it is likely that SM REITs will become an increasingly important part of the Indian commercial real estate market.
