According to a research released on Saturday, India came in fifth place in the Asia-Pacific area for cross-border real estate investments, drawing 9% of the total amount of capital invested there in the first half of this year.
A Knight Frank analysis states that cross-border investments in Asia totaled $11.5 billion, with global private equity investors giving $3 billion to India.
In H2 2024, cross-border investments are expected to increase by more than 33% in the Asia-Pacific region.
The report states that more overseas private equity firms will probably take advantage of the nation’s strong internal macros as a result of the anticipated reversal of the world economies in the second half of the year.
According to Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director of Knight Frank India, “this infusion of investment would boost the performance of Indian real estate and maintain the growth of industry assets.”
Because commercial real estate assets are so attractive, the office sector accounted for 36% of all capital allocated globally.
According to the research, the residential sector earned 15% of the investment share, retail accounted for 10%, and the industrial sector followed closely with 30%.
The paper claims that cross-border financial flows are reshaping the APAC commercial real estate market and accelerating the hunt for fresh investment possibilities.
