REITs

Real Estate Investment Trusts are SEBI-regulated trusts that own income-producing real estate and list units on exchanges.

Indian REITs typically hold commercial office or similar rental assets through special purpose vehicles.

They distribute a large share of net distributable cash flows to unit holders under regulatory norms.

REIT units trade like equity securities on NSE and BSE during market hours.

Investors track occupancy, lease spreads, interest costs, and distribution yields.
