Union Budget 2026 introduces a city-led growth model targeting Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities with ₹5,000 crore urban infrastructure allocation, seven high-speed rail corridors, and CPSE REITs to reshape India's real estate landscape beyond metros.

Union Budget 2026 introduces strategic reforms for India's real estate sector including REIT-based CPSE asset monetisation, ₹5,000 crore City Economic Regions funding, simplified NRI property TDS compliance, and new construction equipment manufacturing incentives.

REIT stocks jumped up to 3% after Budget 2026–27 announced plans to monetise CPSE real estate assets through dedicated REIT platforms, signalling a major reform in India's institutional property investment landscape.

The Union Budget 2026 proposes dedicated REITs for monetising Central Public Sector Enterprise assets, enabling investors to access government-owned commercial properties through regulated investment structures.

Over 350 million square feet of developed commercial office space will propel India's SM REITs market to $60 billion by 2026. This regulation increases openness, investor protection, and engagement. Union Budget tax revisions and SEBI framework boost real estate securitisation.
