Can REITs make real estate investing in India simpler, more accessible, and more income-focused?

In this episode of The Core Report Special Edition, financial journalist Govindraj Ethiraj speaks with Gauri Shankar Nagabhushanam, CEO, CapitaLand India Trust, to explain how India REITs work, how real estate investing is changing, and why commercial real estate, business parks, logistics facilities, and data centres are attracting serious investor attention.

Gauri explains what a Real Estate Investment Trust is, how REITs are different from regular real estate companies, and why they are designed to generate rental income from income-producing assets. He also breaks down why many REITs distribute most of their earnings and what investors should understand before viewing them as a fixed income or real estate investment option.

The conversation also looks at CapitaLand’s India journey, from Bengaluru’s International Tech Park to its growing portfolio across office parks, industrial facilities, logistics assets, and data centres in Navi Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Chennai.
