This growth, primarily predict as a result of the lifting of the legal fence with respect to foreign direct investment in India. India will expect to make one of the fastest growing economies in the world. The government has lined up way for 100% foreign direct investment into the construction / infrastructure / real estate market and to emergence of part funding for PPP infrastructure projects.

In addition, the government is reviewing its tax considerations in order to make the Indian Construction Industry \ Real Estate more attractive to foreign construction companies to expand into the market. Few companies would be viewed as “self-financing” and therefore in a position to collect benefits from a demand driven domestic market. Foreign investors need to ensure that proper legal and taxation advice is sought in respect to operations in India, prior to setting up.

The buyer demand in the residential market continues to raise across all majors cities in India, with developers unable to secure project finance to keep pace with demand. The Indian construction market would appear to be rising once more from the ruins of downturn, with positive action being taken by the Indian Government to strengthen the construction industry.
