NRIs in the Gulf show keen interest in India's real estate industry as prices cool down

Indian expats in the UAE and Gulf may find this a timely moment to invest in the Indian property market, as major cities show signs of slowing price growth after three years of rapid gains. High demand from local buyers had previously created strong competition for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), but market dynamics are beginning to shift, according to a report by Gulf News. The change is prompting many NRIs in the Gulf to re-evaluate whether to invest in Indian real estate or explore property purchases locally in the UAE. 'More than ever, Gulf's NRI buyers are worried whether it makes any sense to buy or build a costly home in India and have it rented out or kept vacant,' said a property advisor. Another deciding factor is education. Expats increasingly base new home purchases in India on whether their children are pursuing higher studies in the country. Meanwhile, city markets are tightening, especially in the affordable and mid-range segments. 'Several cities – including Mumbai , Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Delhi-NCR – are now facing a genuine crunch in entry-level inventory,' said Azaz Motiwala, founder of Ikon Marketing Consultants to Gulf News. 'This supply tightening is most evident in the affordable and mid. segments, where steady demand is not being matched by fresh launches.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Linda Kozlowski, 67, Shows Off Her Perfect Figure In A New Photo Today's NYC Undo While cities like Bengaluru and Hyderabad posted modest 5% price increases in early 2025, they remain below the double-digit gains of previous years. Overall, price growth in most metros has slowed to single digits.

These investments are reportedly yielding 8–10% annual returns, according to Anarock. Live Events Mortgage rates have also begun to shift in favor of buyers. 'Leading banks in India have reduced their lending rates by 5–10 bps in May 2025 (from the peaks in mid-2024),' said Owen. 'However, loan demand is not linked solely to interest rates – overall sentiment, which is significantly influenced by the geopolitical environment, also plays a big role.' Luxury and ultra-luxury housing continue to dominate new supply. 'Driven by steady demand, luxury and ultra-luxury homes – priced from Rs 15 million – dominated new supply in Q1-25 with a 42% share,' Owen added. With prices cooling, financing improving, and supply shifting, NRIs may find new opportunities in India's evolving real estate market.

Air India CEO Campbell Wilson says Pakistan airspace ban adding to flying costs

The continuing ban for Indian airlines in using Pakistani airspace is adding flying hours for non-stop flights and will weigh down Air India Ltd.'s path to profitability, its top executive said in an interview. 'The impact is significant but we have been able to sustain non-stop operations' to most destinations in North America and Europe, Air India Chief Executive Officer Campbell Wilson said in a Bloomberg TV interview Monday. 'It'll certainly hit our bottomline.' The airspace curbs have increased flying time for west-bound flights from India by an hour or so, according to Wilson, who declined to give details on the discussions the Tata Group-owned carrier was having with stakeholders on this front. The armed conflict between India and Pakistan that erupted May 7 was the worst between the nuclear-armed neighbors in decades, with both sides trading drone and missile strikes besides artillery and small arms fire along their shared border. It was triggered by a gruesome attack on civilians in Indian-controlled Kashmir on April 22. While a ceasefire was announced on May 10, Pakistan has extended the airspace ban for Indian airlines until June 24. Geopolitical strife has been complicating flying routes and business models for airlines globally in the past few years as they skirt conflict zones. Tariffs are also now a closely watched development for the sector. 'We want certainty. Uncertainty is difficult when you are making investment decisions,' Wilson said, adding that this was a common theme at the ongoing aviation industry event in New Delhi. So far, Air India sees no impact of tariffs on travel flows for its geography and markets. The recent showdown between the US President Donald Trump and Harvard University has added another layer of complication for international fliers especially those looking to study in American institutions. Pointing to anecdotal stories, Wilson said that there seems to be some shift in the large student population from India that usually vies to be on US campuses. 'You hear people thinking of alternatives,' he said. 'Obviously, it's a relatively new development, so people are still digesting it but it does seem that people are more willing to look at alternative locations than perhaps they were before.' Wilson, who steered the massive merger of Tata-owned carriers Air India and Vistara last year, declined to comment on media stories on the airline's discussions with plane makers to buy more narrowbody jets. Air India, the unprofitable carrier which the Tata conglomerate acquired from the Indian government in 2021, will start receiving new planes it had ordered toward the end of this year, according to Wilson. The deliveries are 'later than we hoped, slower than we hoped,' he said. 'It is constraining our ambitions a little bit in the short term but the long term opportunity for this market is massive, so we are very, very confident.'
