Mr. Alok Aggarwal, Managing Director & CEO of Brookfield India Real Estate Trust and Chairperson of the 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.”
