BENGALURU (Reuters) – Indian warehouse and parks developer IndoSpace on Monday said the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) will invest $205 million in the company’s new real estate fund.

The investment from Canada’s biggest pension fund is part of IndoSpace’s new fund targeting $600 million in equity commitments.

CPPIB’s latest investment in the Indian property developer will take its partnership with the company to over $1 billion in assets, IndoSpace said in a statement.

“We have made numerous investments in India’s industrial space, where we see strong demand as the manufacturing sector continues to grow and the e-commerce sector matures,” said Hari Krishna V, Managing Director, Head of Real Estate India at CPPIB.

IndoSpace is a joint venture between the Everstone Group, a Southeast Asia-focussed private equity, and U.S.-based investors GLP and Realterm.
