The Pakistan Stock Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan have approved the public offering of Naya Nazimabad Apartment REIT, with PSX approval granted on 10 August 2026 and SECP approval following on 12 August 2026. The offering comprises 44.06 million REIT units, representing 15 percent of the scheme's total units, with a floor price of Rs18 per unit and a maximum bid price of Rs23 per unit.
According to PSX's own official offering page, the listing application was originally filed on 8 May 2026, with the prospectus placed for public comments between 6 and 13 July, during which no public comments were received. Book building is scheduled for 1 to 2 September 2026, followed by retail public subscription from 7 to 8 September 2026. Investor registration opened on 27 August 2026. Subscription results and the final listing date remain pending as of this offering's current stage.
The floor price of Rs18 and maximum bid cap of Rs23 define the price range within which institutional and high net worth investors will bid during the book building process. Book building is a price discovery mechanism where these investors submit bids within the set floor and cap, and the final strike price for the broader public offering is determined based on that demand. Retail investors then subscribe during the public subscription window at the price determined through this book building process, rather than bidding within the range themselves.
Naya Nazimabad Apartment REIT is structured as a closed end Developmental REIT under Pakistan's Real Estate Investment Trust Regulations, 2022, with the underlying scheme developing acquired real estate into a mix of commercial, retail, and residential properties within the Naya Nazimabad development in Karachi. As milkiyat.com covered when SECP's approval was first confirmed, this structure differs meaningfully from a rental REIT: returns to unit holders in a developmental REIT come from the eventual sale of completed properties once development is finished, not from an ongoing rental income stream from day one.

This offering gives investors a way to gain regulated exposure to a specific, named real estate development without directly purchasing a plot or apartment themselves. It is important to be direct about what REIT units are not: they are not direct property ownership, and they do not carry a guaranteed return. Returns depend entirely on the underlying development's progress and the eventual sale of the completed apartment, retail, and commercial assets within the scheme, meaning investors carry genuine development and market risk, not a fixed or assured payout. Anyone considering participating in the retail subscription window should review the full prospectus, available directly through PSX, understand the developmental REIT structure specifically, and treat this as a real estate development investment rather than a bond-like, income generating instrument.
Investor registration opened 27 August 2026. Book building runs 1 to 2 September 2026. Retail public subscription runs 7 to 8 September 2026. The floor price is Rs18 per unit, with a maximum bid of Rs23 per unit, and the offering covers 44.06 million units, 15 percent of the REIT's total.
