Real estate is experiencing an upturn in India due to economic growth and urbanisation, with the advent of fractional ownership making commercial properties accessible to retail investors, offering higher rental returns and capital appreciation.
Investors can now start investing in both residential and commercial properties through SM REITs with a minimum cheque size of Rs 10 lakh. Buying and selling can be done through NSE or BSE and units will be held in demat accounts, similar to equity trading. SM REITs has democratized access to real estate investments for millions of Indians.
