24 Apr 2026 CW Team

Certus Capital has announced a planned investment of Rs 20 billion (Rs 20 bn) in housing, office and mixed use projects in fiscal year 2027. The firm said the allocation is intended to support project development and to expand its portfolio across urban and suburban locations. The commitment represents a strategic push into residential and mixed use assets. The firm framed the move as part of its medium term growth plan.

The investment will target housing projects alongside office and integrated mixed use developments that combine living and commercial spaces. Certus Capital intends to deploy capital through partnerships with developers and through structured financing solutions to accelerate construction and occupancy across identified projects. Emphasis will be placed on projects that can deliver completed units within predictable timeframes. The approach aims to balance risk and returns while addressing demand for new housing stock and flexible office options.

Industry participants said the planned deployment will contribute to the supply pipeline and will support jobs in construction and allied services. Analysts note that coordinated capital flows into housing and mixed use segments have supported project completion rates in recent cycles. The move aligns with broader investor interest in assets that offer stable cash flows and potential for capital appreciation. Coordination with contractors and local authorities will support delivery schedules and site readiness.

Certus Capital scheduled the disbursements across fiscal year 2027 with portfolio allocations to be announced as projects are identified. The company will monitor market conditions and adjust allocations to manage timelines and deliverables. The company said it will provide periodic updates on project selection and milestones as work progresses. The announcement reiterates the company strategy to scale its presence in urban development and mixed use real estate.
