India's Student Housing Sector Emerges as Key Investment Opportunity Amid APAC Growth
Institutional investment in the Asia-Pacific living sector has nearly tripled over the past decade to USD 21 billion, with India's purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) sector identified as a strong long-term investment opportunity. Driven by India's large youth population, expanding higher education enrollment, and supportive policies, demand for student housing is expected to grow significantly. Factors such as tighter visa rules and rising overseas education costs are encouraging more students to study domestically, while international universities establishing offshore campuses may further boost demand for professionally managed accommodations.
