NEW DELHI: India’s five listed Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) distributed more than ₹2,450 crore to over 3.8 lakh unitholders during the third quarter of FY26.
The listed REITs, Brookfield India Real Estate Trust, Embassy Office Parks REIT, Knowledge Realty Trust, Mindspace Business Parks REIT and Nexus Select Trust, together manage a portfolio of over 185 million sq ft of grade-A office and retail real estate across the country.
Since their respective listings, the five REITs have cumulatively distributed more than ₹29,100 crore to unitholders, underlining the growing role of the instrument in India’s capital markets. As of Q3 FY26, the total gross assets under management (AUM) of the Indian REIT market stood at over ₹2.5 lakh crore.
Alok Aggarwal, chairperson, Indian REITs Association, said the sector’s performance continues to be supported by leasing momentum and occupancy trends in commercial real estate. He added that recent policy proposals, including permitting banks to lend directly to REITs and plans to set up dedicated REITs for Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs), could widen access to long-term capital and deepen the market.
