India’s ascent as one of the most dynamic real estate private credit markets in Asia-Pacific reflects the deepening maturity and resilience of the sector. The rapid growth in private credit AUM—from under a billion dollars a decade ago to nearly USD 18 billion today—demonstrates strong investor confidence and the success of regulatory reforms that have enhanced transparency and broadened financing avenues. As India is poised to contribute up to a quarter of the region’s private credit growth by 2028, we see tremendous opportunity for well-capitalised, forward-thinking developers. At our company, we believe this evolving credit landscape will enable us to accelerate high-quality development, strengthen partnerships with institutional investors, and continue delivering long-term value to our stakeholders.
