Leading
international property consultants Jones Lang LaSalle India (JLL India)
announced recently that the Firm has appointed veteran CRE specialist Mr.
Nitish Bhasin as Managing Director - Markets.
Prior
to this appointment, Mr. Nitish Bhasin had consistently delivered a sterling
performance as Managing Director for Jones Lang LaSalle India's Delhi NCR
operations. He brings to the table an impeccable track record & tremendous
experience in office leasing and innovative deal structuring and is an expert
in renegotiations, sale / purchase, sub-leasing, sale and lease-back
transactions.
Mr.
Anuj Puri, Chairman & Country Head, Jones Lang LaSalle India, said, "Mr. Nitish
Bhasin is fully equipped to strategize & execute end-to-end real estate
solutions for our corporate real estate clients. His appointment in the key
role of Managing Director - Markets is an important move by the Firm to drive
best practices, further strengthen service efficiency and reinforce our
commitment to our clients. Mr. Nitish is fully wired into the commercial real
estate markets in Delhi NCR, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai and beyond, and will
play a pivotal role capturing the wealth of CRE business that once again
defines these markets."
"I
agree that this appointment comes at an opportune time for all concerned - most
significantly for our clients," states Mr. Nitish Bhasin.
"The
commercial real estate market is currently at an important inflection point,
and replete with opportunities. Capital valuations in Bangalore & many sub-markets of Mumbai and NCR are going
to rise over the next 6 months. Investment sentiments are improving visibly in
markets like NCR and Mumbai, with most of the capital targeting prime office
real estate. We will leverage the opportunities inherent in these market
dynamics on behalf of our domestic and international clients."
Mr.
Nitish further explains that rental values are set to pick up in Hyderabad,
Pune and select sub-markets of NCR and Mumbai.
"This
is consistent with the latest average vacancy levels in these markets vis-Ã -vis
the national average & other markets
in India," he says. "Across cities, there is a visible trend of
commercial developers responding to demand contraction through supply
correction, thereby reducing the historic supply overhang. These are indeed
exciting times for commercial real estate in India, and I look forward to the
challenge of translating the adrenaline into real-time opportunities."
As
Managing Director of Jones Lang LaSalle's India Markets business, Mr. Nitish
Bhasin will focus on optimizing the real estate portfolios of the Firm's
clients and growing its market share across the various regions in India. His
expertise in scouting out latent transaction opportunities and innovative deal
structuring, and his strong relationships with both the occupier and the
developer communities across India will be invaluable in terms of the Firm's
constant drive to maintain and build upon its leadership position in the
market.
