As of October 2024, leasing volume has already surpassed 41 million square feet across the top eight real estate markets. Since the introduction of the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme in 2020, industrial leasing has seen strong growth. Moreover, the rapid expansion of retail and e-commerce has fueled significant activity in the warehousing sector, according to Cushman & Wakefield. "For 2025, we foresee the new-normal level of demand to sustain given the widening of the consumption base in India alongside robust industrial activity witnessed in recent years. India is also a beneficiary of the China+1 diversification strategy followed by global manufacturing firms," it said.
