Anonymous
India’s real estate, data-center and hospitality sectors attracted a record $9.5 billion in equity investment in the third quarter of 2026, more than double the $4.4 billion recorded a year earlier. Data centers accounted for 57% of the quarter’s total, while data centers, built-up office assets and land or development sites together drew nearly 91%. Foreign investors supplied about 59% of inflows, and institutional investors accounted for roughly 79%; U.S. investors made up about 90% of foreign capital. Investment in the first nine months reached $18.6 billion, already exceeding the full-year 2025 total of $14.2 billion. CBRE expects investment activity to remain strong, while noting that geopolitical uncertainty and interest-rate changes could affect the outlook.
