Crisp Insights:
Like rentals on a property, REITs offer certain amount of yields to unit holders, which is supposed to be better for the conservative investor, compared to fixed deposits and other debt instruments.
In the case of Nexus REIT, the yield works out to 8.25 percent (compounded quarterly), based on cash flows and distributable income of the fund till fiscal 2024. Calculations suggest a person who falls in the 30 percent tax bracket would be generating a yield of close to 7.2 percent (on post-tax basis).
On a comparable basis also (based on fiscal 2023 numbers), the other listed players, like Embassy Office Park, Mindspace Business Park and Brookfield REIT, offer a yield of close to 7 percent. Even if we assume growth in fiscal 2024, the offered yield on Nexus REIT should be 50-80 basis points higher than those of other players.
Hence, from the yield point of view, this is the best REIT that is getting listed in Indian markets.
