The majority of the inflows, accounting for 87 per cent, were from equity investments. Somy Thomas, Managing Director of Valuations and Co Head of Capital Markets at Cushman & Wakefield, commented that the Indian office markets represented a remarkably resilient investment category in the real estate realm. These markets showcased steady occupancies and rental growth that outpaced inflation.

Thomas added that the retail asset classes were experiencing mostly double-digit Net Operating Income (NOI) growth on a year-on-year basis. Given the scarcity of high-quality retail space, it was anticipated that rental growth would persist in the foreseeable future.
