- • Wealthy Indian investors are shifting toward real estate and logistics after two years of lackluster stock market returns.

Summary
Rich investors in India are seeking higher-yielding assets, including real estate and logistics, as stock market returns have underperformed for two years, according to Bloomberg. The shift is visible in fundraising activity: at least six new vehicles launched this year are seeking to raise more than $1.25 billion for real estate and infrastructure assets.
The move marks a resurgence for these vehicles, which had been growing slowly before this year. The reallocation runs counter to the pattern among well-heeled investors across much of the world, who have channeled capital into equities exposed to the artificial intelligence boom.
The primary source does not provide further detail on individual fund managers, fund sizes at close, or specific return targets. Investors considering exposure to the Indian real estate and infrastructure segment should treat the $1.25 billion figure as a target fundraising amount rather than a completed raise.
