The real estate market of India is becoming a hot selling property and is attracting the attention of real investors as they are getting huge profits and high returns on their investments. The real estate in India may still be a fragmented industry with high transaction costs and an absence of complete transparency; but it is whetting the appetites of domestic and overseas investors. In India, the world's second-fastest-growing economy, after China, changing government policies and a focus on infrastructure are driving up the demand for housing developments, malls and offices.

But these days, the country's $12 billion real estate market is expanding at a 30 percent annual rate. With the economy expected to continue growing rapidly — the rate is about 8 percent — and a swelling middle class with an appetite for quality apartments, modern malls and a variety of stores, the forecasts are rosy. Analysts at Merrill Lynch predict that the real estate market will grow to $90 billion in 10 years.

The participation in acquiring the property in India is no longer game of the rich but now with options of easy loans and payments the middle class has also got the feel to buy property in India. A recent report by the Chamber of Indian Industries pointed out that globally real estate is and should always be considered as an income-generating asset. Indeed, real estate is an attractive investment option, as it gives regular returns and also provides capital appreciation. This scenario is presently unfolding in India.
