India’s real estate sector recorded a strong surge in institutional confidence during the second quarter of 2026, with total investments jumping 70% year-on-year to ₹27,045.40 crore ($2.9 billion), according to a report by Colliers. Driven by large-ticket deals and a sharp doubling in domestic capital alongside foreign investment, total first-half inflows reached a six-year high of ₹41,566.5 crore ($4.5 billion). Commercial office spaces continued to attract the bulk of this capital, closely followed by mixed-use developments and alternative asset classes like data centres and hospitality. Geographically, Bengaluru and Chennai led the growth, jointly accounting for nearly 27% of H1 2026 institutional inflows with approximately ₹5,595.60 crore ($0.6 billion) invested in each city. Demand in these hubs was overwhelmingly driven by office assets—comprising 85% to 95% of local investments—powered by expansion from global capability centres (GCCs) and corporate tenants. Supported by a rising IMF growth forecast of 6.5% for India's FY27 GDP, institutional investors increasingly view the nation as a resilient, long-term market across both traditional commercial and emerging real estate segments. $PRESTIGE $BRIGADE $SOBHA
