Juggy will continue to be based out of Bangalore, where he has demonstrated significant success over the years.
"This appointment is core to our strategy of providing JLL's India business with the strongest leadership possible. We have had a terrific year and achieved our financial and strategic plans for 2017. In our renewed phase of growth from 2018-2022, the focus is not only on sustaining our leading market share, profitability and business leadership, but also widening the gap from competition," said Ramesh Nair, CEO & Country Head, JLL India.
"I am delighted to welcome Juggy back to the Firm and his second coming provides us with a remarkable advantage in the India realty space - primarily due to his exemplary credentials, client centric approach and focus on building profitable businesses.

Juggy is also highly regarded for his dynamism, energy and agility, all of which are the plinths of our evolving culture in the next phase of the Firm. I look forward to working closely with him, in creating an unmatched institutional conglomerate in the India realty space," added Ramesh Nair.

Combined with his evidenced expertise in business development, Juggy will contribute significantly to the advancement and growth of some of JLL's established businesses and emerging verticals across the country. He will also take on his earlier position within the ranks of the India Leadership Council (ILC).
"JLL is just like home and it feels great to be back. It is clearly the Firm of choice amongst its peers and regarded extremely highly as a professional, transparent and ethical organisation by both industry and clients, alike.

I am clearly looking forward to working with some of the most talented professionals in order to produce outstanding results and outcomes to meet our clients' ambitions," commented Juggy Marwaha, Executive Managing Director, JLL India (appointed).
In his last assignment spearheading WeWork, Juggy was key to it becoming India's premier co-working destination - setting up approx. 1.4 million sq. ft. of office space in less than 1 year. Prior to which he was with JLL India as Managing Director - South India, a position he held till December 2016. During this time, he focused on business augmentation in key southern markets of India, as well was instrumental in effecting some marquee and innovative transactions such as the ones with the Flipkart campus, Siemens Prestige land deal, JW Marriott and many more. Prior to joining JLL in 2013, he was associated with RMZ and CBRE. During his career of over 18 years in India realty, he has worked closely with leading global and large Indian corporate clients on their India real estate strategies.
The Indian real estate sector is at an inflection point, ushered by a volatile economy but at the same time seeing renewed interest from global investors into the capital markets of India. This will open up significant opportunities for the real estate sector and for International property consultants operating in India to make a quantum leap into the future. India's strong policies such as 'Make in India', 'Start Up India' as well as policy roll-outs for RERA, REITs, Infrastructure & Logistics, and more are expected to give a boost to the sector. Further, opening up of FDI norms and relaxation in investment criteria will surely attract global and domestic investments into the sector.
