India’s central bank allows banks to lend directly to REITs, boosting real estate financing.
The Reserve Bank of India has proposed allowing banks to lend directly to Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), aiming to improve long-term financing for commercial real estate.
The change, announced during the RBI’s 2026 monetary policy review, removes previous restrictions that limited bank lending to REITs’ special purpose vehicles.
The move is expected to lower borrowing costs, boost funding efficiency, and support office, retail, and logistics projects.
The RBI maintained the benchmark repo rate at 5.25%, citing ongoing evaluation of rate cuts.
Industry experts support the shift as a positive step toward attracting institutional investment and strengthening real estate financing, though they stress the need for strong safeguards and prudent implementation.
