Invest in the most exciting Indian real estate and get burgeoning returns!

The Indian Real Estate market is considered the most exciting and constantly improving market in Asia.

As India’s economic growth curve rises, real estate in India has emerged as one of the most appealing investment areas for both domestic and foreign investors.

A survey by Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) and Ernst & Young has predicted that Indian Real Estate industry is poised to emerge as one of the most preferred investment destinations in next few years.

Indian real estate has huge potential demand in almost every sector especially in commercial, residential, retail, industrial, hospitality, health care etc.

But maximum growth is attributed to its growth from the booming IT sector, since an estimated 70 per cent of the new construction is for the IT sector.

The main growth thrust is coming due to favorable demographics, increasing purchasing power, existence of customer friendly banks and housing finance companies, professionalism in real estate and also the favorable reforms initiated by the government to attract global investors.

Selling and buying Indian property is now considered as the most profitable and attractive business opportunity New demands have added to strength of real estate markets across the commercial, residential and retail sectors in India. Rapid growth is taking place in both residential and commercial segments that is attracting huge investments in Indian real Estate.

Lower interest rates, better job prospects, and increasing nuclear families have given a boost to residential properties in India. The net yields on residential properties are 4-6%. Capital values in the residential sector have risen by about 25-40% p.a in the last 2 years.

The Retail market has been growing due to increasing demand from retailers, higher disposable income and opening up of FDI in Retail. In this sector, the capital appreciation is close to 20-35% p.a. Changing consumer behavior combined with increasing disposable incomes will ensure further growth of retail sector in India.

In the last one year, capital values of the commercial office spaces have gone up by 40% owing to the increase in demand from IT / ITES and BPO sectors across major metros in India.

The booming IT industry has also resulted in a large number of young investors who with high income jobs chose real estate as an investment option. Moreover, as real estate sector expands beyond the city limits with government promoting industrial belts, real estate developers are eyeing Special Economic Zones (SEZs) as an extension of their business.

Several upcoming special economic zones are also expected to provide the momentum to the commercial office space development in related area where the land comes cheaper, and a SEZ developer is entitled for tax exemptions. Thus, the Indian Real Estate industry is lined up for a complete revolution.
