Mr. Alok Aggarwal, Managing

Indian REITs Association, said, “This has been another landmark year for the
Indian REIT industry, marked by strong growth in distributions, expansion of
high-quality real estate portfolios, and increasing investor participation. The
sector has seen further growth, with the addition of one more REIT taking the
number of listed REITs to five in FY26, reflecting growing confidence in the
platform. The cumulative distribution of over Rs. 8,900 crores in FY26
represents a robust year-on-year growth of over 50%. This significant increase
underscores the resilience of the underlying assets, strong operating
performance, and the sector’s ability to deliver stable and predictable cash flows
to unitholders. As India’s commercial real estate market continues to evolve,
REITs are steadily emerging as a preferred investment avenue for both domestic
and global investors seeking transparent, professionally managed, yield
generating assets. We remain confident in the long-term growth potential of the
Indian REIT ecosystem and its expanding role in India’s financial markets.”
