Indian Real Estate: Capital Market's Billion-Dollar Boom

The Indian real estate market experienced a substantial surge in capital market fundraising, amassing USD 1.15 billion from July to September, a marked increase from the previous quarter. This data comes from a recent Grant Thornton Bharat report.

A total of 42 transactions took place across mergers and acquisitions, private equity, and capital markets, collectively reaching USD 2.85 billion in the third quarter of 2025. The M&A activities alone included 21 deals valued at USD 843 million, a significant rise from six deals worth USD 195 million in the earlier quarter.

Private equity investments showed a similar upward trend with 12 deals totalling USD 859 million. Capital market activities also displayed strength, with IPO and QIP segments generating nine deals amounting to USD 1.1 billion, a leap from the previous four deals at USD 488 million. The Sattva Group's IPO, supported by Blackstone-backed Knowledge Realty Trust, significantly contributed to this growth.
