According to the report, the entire investment through private equity in the commercial office segment came from foreign investors, led by major cities like Chennai, Mumbai and Delhi-NCR.

Arvind Nandan, Managing Director, Research and Consulting at Savills India, said that despite global challenges, India's real estate sector has seen huge investment since the beginning of 2024 and has surpassed the investor figures of 2023, which shows that there is a positive economic environment in India and investors remain positive.
