80% of the portfolio is under Ascendas India Trust and two private funds Ascendas India Growth Programme and Ascendas India Logistics Programme, and 20% is under its balance sheet.

CapitaLand’s business parks in India have an occupancy rate of over 95% catering to both multinational corporations and local companies that employ over 120,000 skilled professionals.

The target is to double CapitaLand’s business and IT parks, industrial and logistics properties to about 40 million sq ft by 2024.

CapitaLand also has a network of more than 1,500 units across 10 lodging properties owned by its lodging business unit, Ascott.

Three properties are operating in Chennai and Mumbai, and seven serviced residences are to be opened by 2022. This includes Ascott Ireo City Gurugram, the first Square Gurugram, and Citadines Sri City, all slated to open in 2020.

Once completed, CapitaLand’s developments underway in India include 17.9 million sqft of business park space in Bangalore, Chennai, Gurgaon, Hyderabad and Pune.

Another 7.2 million sqft through forward purchases have been signed up and are under construction. This includes IT parks in Mumbai and Hyderabad, a seventh warehouse at Arshiya Free Trade Warehousing Zone, Panvel, near Navi Mumbai, and BlueRidge 3, an IT/ITES Special Economic Zone development in Hinjewadi Phase 1 in Pune.

CapitaLand will also be building up a logistics asset portfolio in India with 4.3 million sqft planned for development.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
