Nexus Select Trust plans eight retail-asset acquisitions, including a 500,000 sq ft Guwahati mall, while expanding into eastern India. Strong NOI growth, 96% occupancy and debt headroom support its portfolio-doubling strategy, alongside a new Dombivli mall partnership with Runwal.

Why this matters

The acquisition push follows Nexus Select Trust's ₹1,000 crore AAA-rated NCD refinancing and FY26 results showing ₹25.7 billion revenue and 97% occupancy across 19 malls, while brands increasingly test malls through kiosks amid premium-space constraints.
