Indian real estate is seeing a substantial increase in non-resident Indian (NRI) investments, driven by rapid urbanization and infrastructure expansion. A joint KPMG-NAREDCO report projects the Indian real estate sector to grow from approximately $290 billion in 2025 to $970 billion by 2030. According to Reserve Bank of India data, India received $144.79 billion in inward remittances in FY26. An Equirus Wealth report noted that NRI investments are expanding beyond residential housing into commercial districts, organized retail spaces, and emerging tier-two urban hubs.
