“After a temporary lull due to the global lockdowns in early 2020, India witnessed sharp resurgence in investor sentiments towards the end of the year. The real estate sector in India witnessed private equity investments to the tune of $4.1 billion in 2020 of which $2.64 billion (64 per cent of annual investments) came in the last quarter of 202,” said Rajani Sinha, Chief Economist & National Director of Research, Knight Frank India.
Since 2011 on an average, investors invested through both debt and equity structures. However, there is a shift in investors’ risk appetite as 96 per cent of total PE investment was through the equity route in 2020. The trend is likely to continue in the near future, Sinha said.
