Asheesh Mohta, head of Blackstone’s Real Estate India Acquisitions said, “… e-commerce trends will further fuel demand for the logistics space especially near city centers. This is particularly true in India, where e-commerce is in its nascent stage of development and has tremendous opportunities driven by positive trends in urbanization, domestic consumption, and the emerging retail sector.”

Tuhin Parikh, head of Real Estate India, Blackstone, added that the company was committed to growing its presence in India and had successfully launched the country’s first two REITs (real estate investment trusts).
