  2. Foreword and outlook November recorded US$4 billion in PE/VC investments, a 156% increase compared to November 2023 and 15% lower than October 2024. The number of deals in November 2024 was 47% higher compared to the same month last year. “ “ “ “ “ Pure-play PE/VC investments in November 2024 totalled US$3.5 billion, a 297% increase compared to November 2023 (US$873 million) and 27% higher than October 2024 (US$2.7 billion). The real estate and infrastructure asset class declined by 20% year-on-year, recording US$566 million in November 2024 compared to US$704 million in November 2023. In terms of deal numbers, pure-play and real estate and infrastructure asset classes grew year-on-year by 53% and 13%, respectively. Buyout investments emerged as the leading deal type in November 2024 at US$1.6 billion, followed by start-up investments at US$1.1 billion. Sector-wise, industrial products led with US$1 billion, followed by financial services with US$723 million. PE/VC exits in November 2024 stood at US$3.7 billion across 15 deals, a two –fold increase compared to November 2023 (US$1.2 billion). PE-backed IPOs accounted for US$1.2 billion across five IPOs. The growing interest in growth-oriented businesses and cash flow-generating assets has significantly boosted investments in the Indian real estate sector. Combining lower risk with attractive returns, real estate appeals particularly in markets with good economic growth, a limited supply of premium assets and safety net provided by the real asset value. This mix of income stability, growth potential, and risk continues to make India a good option for Real Estate funds looking to increase their exposure. For more details, see our spotlight section. With one month remaining in 2024, PE/VC investments in the 2H2024 have reached US$17.8 billion, representing only 56% of 1H2024’s US$31.7 billion. 2H2024 has averaged monthly PE/VC investments of US$3.6 billion and 2024 is expected to end with numbers similar to last year’s total PE/VC investments of US$53.4 billion. While 2024 had started off on a strong note, geopolitical tensions, uncertainty over US elections outcome, and inflation weighed on the markets as did the bid ask spread between seller expectations and buyer valuations. As we look into 2025, some of the uncertainty around future US policies and its impact on geopolitics, trade and currency markets may abate post the assumption of office by the Trump 2.0 administration in January. At a macro level, India’s strong fiscal health, stable government, and rising GST collections provide a solid foundation for optimism. At a micro level, earnings quality of India Inc., govt capex expansion and lowering of inflation can provide the tail wind to improve the pace of PE/VC deal making. “ Vivek Soni Partner and National Leader Private Equity Services, EY India

  20. Spotlight: PE/VC trends in real estate

  21. Spotlight: PE/VC trends in real estate (2019– November 2024)  Since 2019, the real estate sector has attracted PE/VC investments, totalling US$40.3 billion across 456 deals, accounting for 12% of overall PE/VC investments. This positions real estate as the third most attractive sector for PE/VC investors, following infrastructure (US$55.7 billion) and financial services (US$40.3 billion).  The year 2023 marked a historic milestone for real estate investments, achieving an all-time annual high of US$8.5 billion within the sector. As of now, 2024 has emerged as the second-best year for the sector, with investments already reaching US$7.2 billion with one month remaining, indicating sustained momentum in the sector. In terms of the number of deals, 2024 has recorded the highest deals in the sector so far (105 deals).  PE/VC investments in real estate continue to be dominated by the commercial segment, accounting for one-third of the dollar value of investments (US$13.7 billion). The rising demand driven by e-commerce growth and the expansion of the retail sector has spurred a significant need for logistics and warehousing infrastructure. This has made emerging sub-sectors like logistics parks and data centers increasingly attractive to PE/VC investors, collectively attracting investments worth US$6.1 billion. Following closely, the residential and developer segments have also secured substantial investments, drawing US$5.4 billion and US$5.3 billion, respectively, reflecting robust growth across diverse real estate categories.  Currently, data centers are seeing significant interest from PE funds, which are evolving as an alternate asset class for varying real estate portfolios. Hyperscale data centers are being developed by reputed Indian real estate developers in partnership with global operators and PE investors.  PE/VC investments within the real estate sector have predominantly taken the form of buyout and growth transactions, with investors seeking ownership of yield-generating assets. They accounted for 46% and 29%, respectively. These two strategies represent a substantial 75% of all real estate investments. Page 21 E Y A N A L Y S I S O F V C C E D G E D A T A

  22. Spotlight: PE/VC trends in real estate (2019– November 2024)  The surge in real estate investments can be attributed primarily to large deals exceeding US$100 million, which accounted for 77% of overall investments in the real estate asset class (US$30.9 billion across 102 deals). Notably, these large deals were concentrated in the commercial, developer, residential and data center segments.  Despite the challenges faced by the office market during 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, the segment is witnessing a strong recovery. The adoption of hybrid work models has rejuvenated demand for office spaces. This resurgence is further fuelled by the growth of IT/ITES sectors, the expansion of corporates, and the rapid rise of start-ups, driving a renewed focus on modern and flexible office infrastructure.  Tax benefits for first-time home buyers have bolstered demand for affordable housing. In response, developers are increasingly turning their attention to Tier II and Tier III cities, aiming to capitalize on the growing and largely untapped market potential in these regions.  E-commerce expansion has created investment opportunities in logistics parks and the warehousing segment.  Additionally, the rise of data centers on account of high date consumption in India and the evolving data localisation policies have further enhanced the prospects of the data center asset class.  Overall, investor confidence in the Indian real estate market is on the rise. With the future of the sector looking highly promising, fuelled by strong economic growth and urbanization, the industry is expected to continue being a significant contributor to the GDP of the country.
