Industrial and logistics supply grows by 57% YoY in Q1 2025
India's Industrial & Logistics (I&L) sector recorded a robust 57% year-on-year growth in new supply during January–March 2025, reaching 12.4 million sq. ft., according to the latest India Market Monitor Q1 2025 – Industrial & Logistics report by CBRE South Asia Pvt. Ltd. This significant supply addition was driven primarily by institutional investor-backed developers, who are actively expanding their footprint to meet strong occupier demand with high-quality, Grade A warehousing assets.
Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Chennai accounted for nearly 69% of the new supply, reinforcing their positions as key I&L development hubs. The fresh stock was strategically aligned with demand from e-commerce, third-party logistics (3PL), and manufacturing occupiers, who continue to seek large, modern spaces in well-connected corridors. Developers supported by both domestic and global institutional capital are increasingly focusing on Tier I and select Tier II cities, where improving infrastructure and policy support are enabling faster project delivery and long-term scalability.
The surge in supply coincided with strong leasing activity, which grew ~40% Y-o-Y to reach 12.1 million sq. ft. across India's top eight cities. Delhi-NCR, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru together accounted for approximately 60% of total leasing volumes, with Delhi-NCR leading at 3.7 million sq. ft., followed by Hyderabad at 1.9 million sq. ft. and Bengaluru at 1.7 million sq. ft. This leasing momentum was powered by large-block commitments from key sectors such as 3PL, e-commerce, engineering and manufacturing (E&M), auto and ancillary, and FMCG.

3PL players dominated leasing with a 31% share, led by multi-location transactions, while e-commerce players accounted for 28%—a more than threefold increase compared to the previous year—driven by major expansion and the rapid development of fulfilment centers. Engineering and manufacturing contributed 17%, while auto and ancillary stood at 8% and FMCG at 5%.
Commenting on the sector's performance, Anshuman Magazine, Chairman & CEO - India, South-East Asia, Middle East & Africa, CBRE, said, 'India's Industrial and Logistics sector continues to exhibit robust and sustained growth, underpinned by strong demand from 3PL players and e-commerce platforms. The first quarter of 2025 has recorded healthy leasing and supply volumes. As India continues to diversify its industrial base and improve infrastructure, we expect sustained demand from a wider spectrum of occupiers, positioning the country as a regional powerhouse in the global supply chain.'

Ram Chandnani, Managing Director, Advisory & Transaction Services, India, CBRE, added, 'The leasing activity in Q1 2025 reaffirms the strong fundamentals of India's Industrial and Logistics market. With growth in leasing activity and active participation from both domestic and international occupiers, we are seeing a clear uptick in investments and long-term commitments. This momentum is further supported by rising interest from global corporations—particularly from the EMEA and American regions—underscoring India's strategic importance as a fast-emerging logistics and distribution hub in the Asia-Pacific region.'
Looking ahead, the outlook for the I&L sector remains optimistic. Leasing momentum is expected to continue through 2025, supported by the continued dominance of 3PL and e-commerce occupiers, expansion from sectors such as E&M, FMCG, and auto, and a steady pipeline of institutional-grade supply. Developers are likely to continue scaling up their presence, delivering future-ready assets that accommodate automation, ESG compliance, and operational flexibility. As India cements its position in the global supply chain, the availability and delivery of high-quality, scalable warehousing will play a pivotal role in shaping the next phase of growth in the country's industrial real estate landscape.

JD Vance stays silent as Musk and Trump clash publicly — could he be the ultimate winner in this feud?
JD Vance silence on Musk feud raises big 2025 questions — is this the most Game of Thrones move in US politics?- JD Vance, the vice president under President Donald Trump, is quietly navigating a political storm that's pitting two of the most powerful figures in America—Trump and Elon Musk—against each other. And while their public fallout has grabbed headlines, Vance's calculated silence is drawing just as much attention. Known for his combative defense of Trump, Vance is now choosing diplomacy over drama, fueling speculation that his endgame might involve much more than just loyalty. Let's break down what's going on—and why it matters for the future of the Republican party, the tech elite, and the White House. Why is JD Vance staying silent in Trump vs Musk feud? JD Vance's quiet response to the Trump vs Musk feud is out of character. The Ohio senator-turned-vice-president has a history of jumping into political fights—especially when Trump is under fire. But when Musk unloaded harsh criticism on Trump on May 23, calling him ungrateful and even connecting him to the late Jeffrey Epstein, Vance didn't rush to defend the president.

Is JD Vance taking orders—or playing his own game? According to The Independent, there may be a simple reason: Trump asked Vance to stay diplomatic when it comes to Musk. That would explain his low-key tone. But insiders believe there's more at stake here than just loyalty to his boss. Live Events Vance's political career has been closely tied to the tech billionaire circle, especially Peter Thiel, who backed his 2022 Senate campaign with $15 million. Thiel also reportedly introduced Vance to Trump. Elon Musk and David Sacks, part of the so-called 'PayPal mafia,' were also instrumental in promoting Vance's rise in Republican circles. The same trio allegedly lobbied for Vance to become Trump's running mate in 2024. So when Musk publicly endorsed the idea of impeaching Trump and replacing him with Vance, replying 'Yes' to a tweet suggesting the switch, it wasn't just political noise—it was a signal. And it placed Vance in a tight spot. Could JD Vance really replace Donald Trump? That's the big question. In today's political climate, Elon Musk's influence in the Republican party is stronger than ever. He spent $395 million backing Republicans during the 2024 election cycle. If Musk throws his full weight behind Vance, it could fast-track the vice president's path to the top job—especially if Trump stumbles legally or politically. Vance's critics argue he's always been a man with two faces: a former Trump critic who once called him "noxious" and "reprehensible," now his most loyal second-in-command. But loyalty in Washington has a short shelf life. And Trump, known for firing even his closest allies, may not appreciate someone who's seen as too close to the billionaire tech elite now turning on him. Is Vance's silence a calculated climb to power? Political observers are comparing Vance to Petyr Baelish, better known as Littlefinger from Game of Thrones —a man who saw chaos not as danger, but as opportunity. 'Chaos is a ladder,' Littlefinger said. And Vance may be climbing it. By staying quiet, he avoids alienating Musk, who publicly supports him, while still appearing loyal to Trump. It's a risky game, but one that could pay off if Trump falters and the Republican party needs a fresh face to take over. This approach also keeps him out of direct conflict—something that could damage his chances in the long run. For now, he's simply letting Trump and Musk fight it out while maintaining ties with both. What's next for JD Vance and the Republican party? It's clear that JD Vance is more than just a vice president. He's a central figure in a high-stakes power struggle between traditional Trump loyalists and a new wave of tech-aligned libertarian conservatives. His silence may seem passive, but it could be strategic. Trump has spent years eliminating 'traitors' from his inner circle. If Vance wants to stay in the game—and maybe even win it—he needs to walk a careful line. So far, he's doing just that. FAQs: Q1: Why is JD Vance silent on the Trump-Musk feud? JD Vance may be staying quiet to balance loyalty to Trump and support from Elon Musk. Q2: Could JD Vance replace Trump as president? Elon Musk's public support hints Vance could be a future presidential pick if Trump stumbles.

MLC: San Francisco Unicorns are betting on AI to redefine T20 cricket in USA
Venky Harinarayan is a co-owner of the San Francisco Unicorns, a franchise in the Major League Cricket. (Image: Special Arrangement) Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have been the buzzwords for many years now in different spheres. Cricket has embraced data, belatedly and, perhaps, begrudgingly — now it is the turn of AI. No surprise that one of the first embracers are Silicon Valley venture capitalists who founded Junglee and Kosmix, which were later acquired by Amazon and Walmart, respectively. Anand Rajaraman and Venky Harinarayan met during their college days in the US and shared a passion for cricket. Venky, who lives in San Francisco, played in school and relied on newspaper clippings sent by his father to stay abreast with the game in the late 80s and early 90s. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Fast forward two decades and the duo have turned their love for cricket into an entity - having birthed the San Francisco Unicorns in the Major League Cricket (MLC). "We've tried to build this franchise from first principles, like any startup. And in today's world, trying to build a startup without leveraging the data and making it AI first is not a smart thing to do," said Venky to by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Вот что поза во сне говорит о вашем характере! Удивительные Новости Undo "I think we are pushing the envelope on a lot of how these things are applied to cricket." Some of the challenging aspects that are scrutinised with the help of data science and AI are squad construction, auction tactics, domestic draft picks and in-game strategies. File photo of Jake Fraser McGurk. (ANI) One player identified by this process was Australia's Jake Fraser-McGurk who was snapped ahead of the second season. Despite his impressive CV in T20 leagues, the 23-year-old only produced 81 runs from seven matches in MLC 2024. The Unicorns, however, are unperturbed. "You can keep going deeper and deeper today with AI. For example, if bowler X is bowling to batter Y, the bowling coach can advise what should they be bowling, what length, what the plan is etc. AI can help dramatically with that. Because it can look at all the balls that the batter has played and tell you, 'this is where the strengths are, this is the weakness'," explained Venky. "What you see right now is that a lot of this has been done by the first level of data analysis. AI is sort of the next level. And completely new territory." "I think most teams should be starting that journey at this point because it is going to be opening up a lot of new avenues as to how you play the game. And this is less about our team. This is about pretty much any data science or AI operation. You need to have sort of a harmony between the data and the humans," he elaborated. After an inaugural season of learnings, the San Francisco Unicorns finished as runners-up in 2024, losing to Washington Freedom in the final. It was a big achievement for both teams, especially since they're up against four franchises backed by IPL owners. MI New York, Texas Super Kings, LA Knight Riders, and Seattle Orcas benefit from the experience gained through their owners' involvement in various T20 leagues. We showed up at the stadium, all the IPL teams have giveaways. We have no idea this is what you do! So our guys are running to the local printer, trying to get some flags printed, trying to get some hats Venky Harinarayan The challenge of going head-to-head with such legacy franchises intrigues Venky. "To be honest, I actually love that. Because it's always good to compete against the best. I'm very happy with all the IPL teams as our partners, but from a franchise point of view, especially on the field, you do want to compete with the best," he said before acknowledging their collaboration with Cricket Victoria to ensure they're an efficient unit. "I feel like we are the new kids on the block and we embrace that. Again, coming from the startup world, we embrace that completely." "When you start a startup, you're competing with the big giants. So you have to embrace that. Otherwise you don't belong belong in this world. And to be honest, first year wasn't great. We showed up at the stadium, all the IPL teams have giveaways, have flags. We have no idea this is what you do! So our guys are running to the local printer, trying to get some flags printed, trying to get some hats." How do you grow cricket in the USA? Oakland Coliseum will host MLC matches this season, becoming the third venue in the USA's T20 league. (Image credit: X) That captures one of the challenges for MLC and its six franchises. There have been steady steps with number of matches increasing from 19, 25 to 34 in the upcoming season, with the venues also going from two (Grand Prairie Stadium, Texas and Church Street Park, North Carolina) to three (Grand Prairie; Broward County Stadium in Lauderhiil, Florida and Oakland Coliseum in Oakland, California). There is an overarching test of growing the game in the region while keeping the league competitive. "We're fairly clear that this is something which is not going to happen overnight. It's going to happen over a period of time, and we have to be patient and willing to keep pushing. We know there's definitely opportunity on the competitive side, there's still a way to go — we have to keep improving," opened up Venky. "After every season, we reflect on what we can do better, and I'm sure every team does the same. And when it comes to growing cricket here, that's something we really need to embrace." "As a startup, the first two years have been especially challenging. We've been focused on getting our own house in order — fielding a competitive product and getting the basics right. But now, heading into season four, after this one, we feel we're at a point where we can begin building real momentum." "There's so much opportunity. We've been amazed by the interest — not just in watching cricket, but in playing it. And it's not limited to people who grew up in cricket-playing nations like India. It's also their children and those from other communities. You see this reflected in Bay Area academies — one I visited recently had over 300 kids, and that's just one of many." "First, we need to solidify the sport within passionate communities, and then expand to those where awareness is still low. There's a marketing challenge too — many Americans still think of the old, slow format of cricket, with tea breaks and multi-day matches. But T20 is a fast, exciting game that fits the viewing habits here. Once people experience it, they love it, but it takes education." "Of course, American sports are deeply rooted, so carving out a niche here won't be easy. It's not a simple process. But we have great raw material and encouraging proof points from the first two seasons. Soccer took a long time to get established here. So, we just have to keep pushing, keep investing, and that's important." San Francisco Unicorns will get the 2025 MLC season underway against Washington Freedom on June 12 at Oakland Coliseum. A total of 30 matches will be played in the league stage followed by knockouts in Texas, with the season culminating on July 13.
