Commenting on the survey, Cushman & Wakefield’s country head and managing director, India, Anshul Jain said “The current economic drivers are biased towards developed markets, but Indian cities are performing ahead of expectations and are clearly offering superior medium to long-term growth potential in real estate.” He further said while established markets of Mumbai, Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR have seen the larger share of capital investments, cities such as Chennai, Hyderabad and Pune are also key destinations, due to their inherent strengths as crucibles for multi-sector manufacturing activities for automobiles, engineering goods, white goods, pharmaceutical products, among others.
Of the total real estate investment received in Indian cities, the largest share of over 55 per cent came in from North America, while domestic and regional sources saw a decline in share of capital invested in the country, the report said. Funds from Europe, which had not made its presence in the previous year, were seen contributing around 14 per cent, it added. “India’s current economic position and political stability, have been instrumental in creating an investment-friendly country. Further, with the positive changes in the legislative environment, the invested capital is safeguarded,” Jain added.
