Infraventures affiliate RISE expands business into leasing sectors nationwide, aiming for substantial growth.
RISE Infraventures, a leading real estate advisory firm in India, is making waves in the industry by expanding its service portfolio. The company, known for its international-standard practices and sharp local understanding of the Indian market, is now entering the asset management sector.
In a significant move, RISE Infraventures is set to announce its first development project in Gurugram in the near future. The company aims to transact a million square feet of space in the next 12-18 months, with an expected Gross Transaction Value (GTV) exceeding Rs. 1,000 crore.
The expansion will focus on commercial real estate development and leasing across various types of properties, including Grade offices, retail spaces, high streets, malls, warehouses, and flex workspaces. The leasing operations will have a pan-India footprint, with a strong focus on Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities beyond metros.
Post-COVID, RISE's domain expertise, local relationships, and technology-driven insights provide an advantage in creating sustainable, long-term value for occupiers. Sonakshi Wadhawan, the Chief Business Officer of RISE Infraventures, is focused on establishing a robust, transparent leasing practice built on trust, fairness, and long-term value creation.
To drive this expansion, Bhupindra Singh, the Chief Operating Officer, will focus on scaling development partnerships and leasing operations across geographies. Ajay Malik, the Chief Strategy Officer, aims to drive strategic growth by leveraging the company's investor network and expanding its national footprint. Manish Srivastava, Head of Retail at RISE Infraventures, states that the company's teams are composed of regional specialists, and brands are excited to support its expansion across India.
RISE Infraventures anticipates adding 25-30% new clients within 12-18 months, driven by strong interest from GCC occupiers and retail brands. The company expects particularly strong growth of high streets and malls in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities in India, such as Indore, Surat, and Nagpur, based on current retail consumption trends in smaller cities.
With this forward-looking approach, RISE is well-positioned to accelerate its growth trajectory in India's high-end real estate sector. In fact, the company achieved a significant milestone of Rs. 3,800 Crore in gross sales during the financial year 2024-25.
As RISE Infraventures continues to grow, it will channel investments from UHNIs and family offices into pre-leased and income-generating assets. The company is poised to make a lasting impact on India's real estate landscape, offering sustainable, long-term value to both investors and occupiers.
