hBits, a fractional ownership platform for commercial real estate, expects investments worth ₹1500-2000 Crore from Gujarat-based HNIs and investors through its platform over the next 3 to 4 years, stated the company in an official release here Wednesday.
“Gujarat has always been one of our key markets with so far almost 20 percent of the investors on our platform being from this state. The investors from Gujarat are known for their versatility, and opting for fractional ownership further diversifies their portfolio by enabling them to invest in Grade A commercial assets spread across India. Amid the positive sentiments in the sector, we aim to further enhance our investor base from the state and scale up their investment value. The HNI population of the state remains our key target audience and we will be actively reaching out to them over the next few quarters,” stated Shiv Parekh, Founder and CEO of the company.
