Institutional investments in Indian real estate touched a remarkable USD 6.5 billion inflows in 2024, marking a substantial 22% increase from the previous year's USD 5.4 billion. This surge reflects strong investor appetite for Indian real estate and marks an annual high for both domestic and foreign investments since 2020.  

The fourth quarter of 2024 was particularly robust, with investments totaling USD 1.9 billion—2.3X times compared to the same period in 2023. This end-year momentum contributed significantly to higher investment volumes for 2024. Interestingly, domestic investments were significant in Q4 2024 and accounted for 43% of the inflows during the final quarter. This underscores the growing confidence of India-based institutional investors alongside sustained interest from international counterparts.

In 2024, the Industrial & warehousing segment accounted for the highest share in overall real estate investment volumes at 39%, surpassing the office segment. Manufacturing and industrial growth in the country was robust throughout 2024 and was reflected in the performance of macro-economic indicators such as Manufacturing Purchasing Manager’s Index (PMI) and Index of Industrial Production (IIP). At USD 1.1 billion, residential segment too witnessed substantial growth, rising 46% compared to 2023 levels.
