  "account": "Cumulative investments by alternative investment funds in real estate dropped significantly in the June quarter, but fund managers assert the decline does not signal a widespread slowdown in the sector. Despite a 32 percent decrease, real estate remained the primary sector for AIF investments, with total AIF assets crossing the ₹7 trillion mark for the first time at ₹7.11 trillion. SEBI data showed cumulative AIF investments in real estate at ₹87,969 crore as of June 2026, compared to ₹1.29 trillion at the end of March. Fund managers interpret the sharp quarter-on-quarter change in the real estate figure as more of a reclassification than a true decline, citing the way SEBI reports cumulative investments since inception rather than what exited in the quarter.",
