Why Invest

Why Bangalore Office Space Delivers Strong Returns

01

22 Million Sq Ft Annual Absorption — India's Largest IT Market

Bangalore absorbs more office space annually than Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad, Pune, and Chennai combined. This market depth means that well-located Grade A offices in Bangalore have consistently the lowest vacancy rates and strongest rental growth of any Indian city.

02

58% Q2 2026 Absorption Jump — Structural Not Cyclical

A 58% year-on-year jump in office absorption in Q2 2026 is not a blip — it reflects the continuation of GCC expansion in Bangalore that has been structurally underway since 2018. Bangalore's GCC count has grown from 300 to 500+ in 5 years, and each GCC requires office space that only Grade A campuses can supply.

03

Embassy REIT Benchmark — Institutional Validation

Embassy Office Parks REIT (NSE: EMBASSYOFFP) is India's first listed REIT and includes multiple Bangalore office parks. NRI investors who buy comparable Grade A Bangalore offices are buying into the same asset class that institutional REIT investors hold — with the same underlying tenant quality and market dynamics.

NRI Buyer Guide

How NRIs Buy Commercial Property in India

Complete guide — FEMA rules, GST, payment routing, legal ownership.

FEMA — NRIs Can Buy Freely

Under FEMA, Non-Resident Indians can freely purchase commercial property in India (excluding agricultural land). No RBI approval needed. No ownership cap. Funds must route through NRE, NRO, or FCNR banking channels.

💸

Payment Routing — NRE to India

Transfer funds from your Dubai/overseas bank to an NRE account in India. Commercial property payment from NRE accounts carries no LRS limit (only NRO accounts have LRS constraints). Maintain a clear paper trail from the foreign source to the Indian account.

🧾

GST on Under-Construction

12% GST applies on the purchase of under-construction commercial property. Ready/completed commercial properties are exempt from GST. Factor this into total acquisition cost. Registered businesses can claim GST input tax credit.

📊

Rental Income Tax — NRI Obligation

Rental income from Indian commercial property is taxable in India at the applicable slab rate (for individuals) or flat 30% for NRIs without slab deduction on gross rent. India-UAE DTAA (Double Tax Avoidance Agreement) applies — avoid double taxation on the same income in both countries.

🔑

Power of Attorney — Remote Purchase

NRI buyers who cannot travel to India use a registered Power of Attorney to complete property registration. IA Wealth coordinates POA documentation, registration, and property inspection on behalf of NRI buyers.

💼

Repatriation of Sale Proceeds

After selling commercial property, NRIs can repatriate up to USD 1 million per financial year from sale proceeds (held in NRO account). Amount above this requires RBI approval. Capital gains are taxed in India before repatriation.

FAQ

Common Questions — Bangalore Commercial Investment

Yes. NRI buyers use a registered Power of Attorney (POA) to complete registration without being present. IA Wealth coordinates the POA process, property due diligence, and legal documentation remotely from Dubai. Most NRI buyers complete the full commercial purchase without a single India visit.

Pre-leased commercial: property already has a tenant in place, rental income starts from day 1, price is higher. Under-construction: lower entry price, no immediate income, higher capital appreciation potential over 3-5 years. Most NRI investors split — pre-leased for income, under-construction for appreciation. IA Wealth advises on the optimal mix for your return requirements.

GST (12%) applies only to under-construction commercial property. Completed/registered commercial property purchased from a seller (not a developer) is exempt from GST. If you are a GST-registered business, the 12% GST on under-construction commercial is claimable as input tax credit, effectively reducing your acquisition cost significantly.

Gross yields typically range from 6-10% in prime commercial locations. Net yield (after maintenance, property tax, and management fees) is typically 4.5-8%. Pre-leased commercial with 5-9 year lock-in leases provide the most predictable income. Grade-A office space consistently outperforms retail in yield stability.

Disclaimer: All pricing is indicative as at August 2026. Gross yield estimates are based on market averages and are not guaranteed. Consult a CA for Indian tax obligations on commercial property. IA Wealth Real Estate LLC · RERA 52591 · +971 56 909 3693 · www.iawealth.ae
