New Delhi, June 11

India continues to be in the top 10 global cross-border investment destinations for land and development sites, a report showed on Wednesday.

The country is emerging as a key investment destination within Asia Pacific, driven by strong fundamentals, a maturing real estate market, and growing interest in land and development assets.

Favourable policy measures and continued infrastructure push are further enhancing the investment climate and reinforcing India's appeal to global and regional capital, said the report from Colliers.

While Japan and Australia ranked among the top 10 global cross-border capital destinations for standing assets, India continued to feature prominently at the seventh place in the top 10 global cross-border capital destinations for land and development sites.

“Institutional investments in Indian real estate stood at a strong $1.3 billion in Q1 2025 -- up 31 per cent year-on-year -- underscoring the sector’s resilience and investor confidence. Global and regional capital continues to flow steadily into India, particularly in land and development assets, supported by a maturing market and diverse capital deployment opportunities,” said Badal Yagnik, Chief Executive Officer, Colliers India.

Increasing global investor participation in the residential segment, along with a growing appetite for emerging segments such as life sciences and data centres, will further strengthen real estate investment in India.
