Below the Views on Budget 2026 proposal around REITs for PSU-owned real estate assets by Apurva Muthalia, Business Head – Real Estate at Equirus Family Office

The creation of REITs for PSU-owned real estate assets can be a structural positive for both the public sector and capital markets. It enables PSUs to free up capital from their balance sheets while retaining operational control over strategic assets. At the same time, it deepens the REIT market by offering investors access to stabilised, income-generating assets leased to quasi-sovereign entities. This creates a strong proposition for retail investors, asset managers and institutional investors, while unlocking value for PSUs that own multiple commercial office properties.
