Colliers has reported that India recorded one of the strongest growth rates in real estate investment across the Asia Pacific region in 2025, with transaction volumes rising 29% year-on-year. The findings are part of the firm’s Asia Pacific Investment Insights March 2026 report, which analysed investment activity across nine major regional markets.Total real estate investment volumes across the Asia Pacific reached USD 162 billion in 2025, reflecting an 8% year-on-year increase. The second half of the year saw stronger momentum, with investments reaching USD 87.3 billion, up 11% compared to the same period in the previous year and 17% higher than the first half of 2025.Among the nine key markets analysed—Australia, Hong Kong, India, Japan, China, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan—South Korea, Japan and Singapore led overall investment volumes. However, Singapore and India recorded the highest year-on-year growth rates at 35% and 29% respectively.Office assets continued to dominate investment activity across the region, supported by steady occupier demand for prime properties and limited supply in key central business districts. The office segment recorded investments of USD 58.5 billion in 2025, accounting for 36% of total regional investment and marking a 21% year-on-year rise. Industrial and logistics assets ranked second with USD 30.1 billion in investments, while retail investments grew 15% as improving asset performance and consumer sentiment strengthened investor confidence.“India continues to strengthen its position as a key investment destination within the APAC region, recording one of the strongest growths in real estate investments among the nine major APAC markets in 2025. While domestic capital continues to drive investment activity across most APAC markets, India has seen relatively stronger cross-border capital movement, with foreign investors accounting for 43% of the USD 8.5 billion inflows during the year,” said Badal Yagnik, Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director, Colliers India.Highlighting sector trends, Vimal Nadar, National Director, Research, Colliers India, said: “Office assets continue to remain the top preference for institutional investors across most APAC markets, including India.”Looking ahead, Theo Novak, Managing Director, Capital Markets & Investment Services, Asia Pacific at Colliers, noted that improving financial conditions and renewed investor confidence are expected to support a broader recovery in real estate investment activity across the region through 2026.
