India's Commercial Office REITs to Expand Leasable Area by 40-45 Million Sq Ft by FY28
India's listed commercial office REITs are projected to expand their leasable area by 40-45 million square feet to reach 190-195 million square feet by fiscal year 2027-28, driven by new listings and acquisitions. Crisil Ratings highlights that this growth will be primarily through inorganic asset additions, maintaining stable occupancy rates around 92-93% and healthy profit margins near 70%. Despite increased leverage for acquisitions, credit profiles are expected to remain robust due to steady rental income and portfolio diversification.
