2025 India Logistics Occupier Survey
CBRE

The CBRE 2025 Asia Pacific Logistics Occupier Survey, conducted between March and April 2025, gathered insights from over 380 logistics occupiers across the APAC region, including more than 100 responses from India-based occupiers (both Indian and global firms with operations in the country).

Our 2025 India Logistics Occupier Survey report highlights crucial perspectives from occupiers regarding their business outlook, growth plans, strategic opportunities, and anticipated challenges.  

Key findings from the survey have been highlighted below:

Occupiers remain confident about their business outlook

India's industrial and logistics (I&L) sector has experienced accelerated formalisation and robust growth in recent years, underpinned by improved macroeconomic landscape, supportive government initiatives, and increased demand.

Portfolio growth expected to continue as medium- to long-term drivers endure

Demonstrating persistent confidence in the Indian market's potential, occupiers remain steadfast in pursuing medium- to long-term portfolio expansion. In alignment with their broader business trajectory, more than 80% of respondents indicated their intention to increase the size of their warehousing portfolio over the next two years.

Note: Respondents could select more than one answer; percentages calculated as a proportion of total responses and therefore do not add up to 100%; responses from India-based occupiers were considered for this analysis
Critical ESG features impacting building selection 

More than half of the respondents reported that ‘availability of on-site renewable energy’ is a leading ESG criterion for building selection.
