Indian REITs cross Rs 1 lakh crore market cap, marking a milestone in sector growth
The achievement underscores growing investor confidence and signals the increasing maturity of India's commercial real estate investment landscape.
The four publicly listed REITs — Brookfield India Real Estate Trust,
Embassy Office Parks REIT
,
Mindspace Business Parks REIT
, and
Nexus Select Trust
— have collectively benefited from robust leasing momentum, healthy occupancy levels, and consistent income distributions.
Industry leaders see this milestone as a testament to the resilience and potential of the sector. 'We welcome this significant milestone as evidence of the sector's resilience, maturity, and potential,' said Alok Aggarwal, MD & CEO of Brookfield India Real Estate Trust and Chairman of the
Indian REITs Association
. 'This fiscal year has commenced on a strong footing, driven by robust leasing momentum, high occupancy levels, and sustained growth in distributions. As REITs continue to scale and attract long-term capital, their growing market capitalisation will further enhance liquidity — benefiting issuers through improved access to capital, and investors through increased trading volumes and tighter spreads.'
Since their debut in 2019, REITs have opened up direct access to income-generating commercial real estate for investors in India, offering a transparent, regulated, and liquid structure.
According to Q4 FY25 data, the sector manages gross Assets Under Management (AUM) of over Rs 1.63 lakh crore, with the four REITs operating more than 128 million sq ft of Grade A office and retail space in key urban centres.
Cumulatively, these REITs have distributed over Rs 22,800 crore to unitholders, reflecting their strong income-generating capability.
The sector's growth has also been aided by enabling regulatory reforms, which have enhanced market depth and liquidity, making REITs a compelling alternative to traditional investment avenues.
The Indian REITs Association (IRA) – a non-profit industry body supported by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and the Ministry of Finance – represents the sector's interests and promotes best practices.
Brookfield India Real Estate Trust, Embassy Office Parks REIT, Mindspace Business Parks REIT, and Nexus Select Trust are its founding members.
With this latest milestone, market participants believe REITs are poised to play an even bigger role in India's capital markets, attracting long-term domestic and global capital while deepening the country's real estate investment ecosystem.
