CapitaLand India Trust Q3 net property income up 22% to 2.9b rupees
CAPITALAND India Trust : CY6U 0%‘s (Clint) third-quarter net property income (NPI) grew 22 per cent to 2.9 billion rupees (S$46.7 million), from 2.4 billion rupees in the year-ago period.
This was due primarily to higher total property income, which came on the back of contributions from International Tech Park Hyderabad and International Tech Park Pune – Hinjawadi, Clint’s manager said on Thursday (Oct 26).
However, this was partially offset by an increase in total property expenses.
Total property income for the three months ended Sep 30, 2023 grew 23 per cent to 3.8 billion rupees, from 3 billion rupees a year ago.
At International Tech Park Hyderabad, Clint completed the construction of IT building Block A in January. In May, it acquired the 25-acre International Tech Park Pune – Hinjawadi.
Both properties saw higher occupancy and contributed to total property income in Q3, Clint’s manager said.
