21 Feb 2024 CW Team

According to a recent report by ICRA, India's top seven cities possess a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT)-compatible office supply valued between ?5.8 to ?6.2 trillion. The study indicates a substantial pool of commercial real estate that meets the criteria for inclusion in REITs, providing investors with diverse opportunities in the office space segment.

The report identifies the readiness of office properties in key cities, signalling a potential boost for the real estate market through the introduction of REITs. The assessed value underscores the significant scope for investment in commercial properties, offering a diverse portfolio for potential REIT offerings.

The findings emphasise the maturation of India's commercial real estate sector and its alignment with global trends, making it an attractive prospect for institutional and retail investors seeking exposure to the office space market. The emergence of REIT-compatible office supply is expected to provide a new avenue for investment in the Indian real estate landscape.

This revelation aligns with the broader efforts to enhance transparency and liquidity in the real estate market. As the demand for quality office spaces continues to rise, the availability of REIT-ready assets presents a promising opportunity for investors to participate in the country's evolving commercial real estate sector.
