Driven by infrastructure upgrades, IT sector expansion, NRI-friendly FEMA reforms and a depreciating rupee, NRI property investment in India has grown 25% year-on-year since 2022. For Gulf-based NRIs in particular, the UAE Dirham-to-Rupee exchange rate means India property costs 30–40% less in effective terms than it did a decade ago.
