Bengaluru, India, February 2, 2024

Embassy Office Parks REIT (NSE: EMBASSY / BSE: 542602) (‘Embassy REIT’), India’s first listed REIT and the largest office REIT in Asia by area, reported results today for the third quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Aravind Maiya, Chief Executive Officer of Embassy REIT, said,

“It’s been a remarkable quarter for Embassy REIT. We’re pleased to announce that we’ve achieved our annual leasing guidance in just 9 months. As our 2.2 msf of pre-leasing to three renowned global companies demonstrates, India continues to be a thriving business hub for GCCs. As more and more multinationals set up their centres in India, their need for premium office spaces to house their talent will grow exponentially in the coming years. Our refinance of ₹2,600 crores through a combination of instruments provides us increased flexibility in managing our debt portfolio. Lastly, the strength of our business is reflected by the excellent response of equity investors to the recent sponsor stake sale, which has resulted in an increase of our public float to 92% and a truly diversified blue-chip unitholder base.”
