Institutional investments in real estate are expected to cross $10 billion in 2025, reflecting sustained investor confidence and improving market fundamentals, according to a report by JLL. The projection highlights strong capital inflows across office, logistics, residential, and emerging asset classes, even amid global economic uncertainties.
JLL noted that India continues to stand out as a preferred destination for global investors due to its stable growth outlook, expanding urbanisation, and transparent regulatory environment. Office real estate is expected to remain a key driver, supported by strong demand from global capability centres, technology firms, and flexible workspace operators.
Industrial and logistics assets are also drawing heightened interest, driven by e-commerce expansion, manufacturing growth, and supply chain diversification strategies. Additionally, alternative segments such as data centres, life sciences facilities, and student housing are gaining traction among long-term institutional investors.
The report pointed out that improved asset quality, better governance standards, and the growing success of REITs have further strengthened investor sentiment. Domestic capital is also playing a larger role, complementing foreign investments and adding depth to the market.
With deal activity picking up and capital becoming more selective yet confident, JLL believes institutional real estate investments in 2025 will not only surpass $10 billion but also become more diversified, reinforcing India’s position as a resilient and attractive global real estate market.
