Dubai's largest-ever international real estate showcase set to take centre stage in New Delhi
Dubai, UAE: Dubai's booming real estate sector is set to make an unprecedented mark in India with DPXPO – The Dubai Property Expo, the largest-ever overseas exhibition of Dubai real estate, taking place in New Delhi on May 24-25, 2025, at Yashobhoomi, India's premier exhibition venue.
Organised by Global Branding Events and Exhibitions, the event will bring together Dubai's leading developers, brokers, and real estate experts, offering an exclusive platform for Indian investors to explore high-yield, tax-free property investments in Dubai.
With Indian investors ranking among the top three foreign buyers of Dubai real estate since 2004, DPXPO aims to capitalise on India's growing demand for premium properties in the UAE. According to various reports, Indian nationals have invested over USD 22 billion in Dubai's real estate sector over the years, drawn by high rental yields, capital appreciation, and long-term residency opportunities.
Dubai's rental yields range between six and eight per cent annually, far exceeding returns in major Indian cities like Mumbai and Bangalore, which average two to three per cent. The absence of capital gains and property purchase taxes, combined with the AED 2 million property investment threshold for a 10-year renewable Golden Visa, makes Dubai an unparalleled choice for investors seeking financial security, global mobility, and luxury living.
Manoj Nair, Head of Global Branding Events and Exhibitions, emphasised the unprecedented scale and significance of DPXPO, stating, 'This is the first time all major Dubai developers will come together in such a large-scale real estate showcase outside the UAE. Given its status as the single-largest investor market for Dubai real estate, India was the natural choice for the inaugural edition. North India remains an untapped region with immense investment potential, and DPXPO will bridge the gap, bringing Dubai's most prestigious properties directly to high-net-worth investors and professionals in India.'
DPXPO will provide an immersive and data-driven investment experience, featuring exclusive property deals, financing options, and expert-led panel discussions.
Attendees will gain first-hand insights into Dubai's investment landscape, including key developments in luxury residences, commercial spaces, and freehold properties. The event will also highlight the benefits of Dubai's investor-friendly ecosystem, offering guidance on residency and business opportunities through real estate ownership.
With over 12,000 expected visitors, including more than 2,000 pre-qualified investors, DPXPO is set to be the most influential and high-impact Dubai real estate event outside the UAE. Strengthening investment flows between India and Dubai, the exhibition reaffirms Dubai's position as the leading global hub for real estate investment.

Dubai Mall Unveils Ambitious Expansion Amidst Soaring Visitor Numbers
Dubai Mall is set to undergo a significant expansion, with Emaar Properties announcing a substantial investment of AED 1.5 billion to enhance the mall's offerings. The development will introduce 240 new luxury retail stores and food and beverage outlets, further solidifying the mall's position as a premier global shopping destination. In 2023, Dubai Mall achieved a remarkable milestone by welcoming 105 million visitors, marking a 19% increase from the previous year. This surge in footfall underscores the mall's growing appeal and the emirate's broader strategy to boost tourism and retail sectors. The expansion aims to accommodate this increasing demand and enhance the overall visitor experience. Spanning over 1.2 million square meters, Dubai Mall currently houses more than 1,200 retail outlets, including flagship stores like Galeries Lafayette and Bloomingdale's. The mall also offers over 200 international dining options and a range of entertainment attractions, such as the Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo, an Olympic-sized ice rink, a 26-screen cinema, and the Zabeel Sports District. The upcoming expansion will build upon these offerings, introducing new luxury brands and dining experiences to cater to diverse visitor preferences. ADVERTISEMENT Emaar Properties has already commenced on-site preparations for the expansion, although a specific completion date has not been disclosed. The project reflects Dubai's ambitious vision to remain at the forefront of global innovation and culture, aiming to further enhance the city's status as a top international destination. The expansion also aligns with broader trends in the United Arab Emirates' retail sector. Despite global shifts towards online shopping, the UAE has witnessed a 14% increase in retail spending, driven by sectors such as fashion, general retail, and leisure and entertainment. This growth highlights the continued relevance and appeal of brick-and-mortar retail experiences in the region. In addition to the Dubai Mall expansion, other major retail developments are underway in the city. For instance, Majid Al Futtaim has announced a $1.36 billion investment to expand the Mall of the Emirates, another prominent shopping destination in Dubai. These initiatives underscore the city's commitment to enhancing its retail infrastructure and offering unparalleled shopping experiences to residents and tourists alike.

India Charts New Course on Crypto, Tightens Tax Norms, and Eyes AI for Compliance
India is poised to release a comprehensive discussion paper on cryptocurrency regulation in June 2025, marking a significant shift in its approach to digital assets. This initiative aims to establish a clear policy framework, drawing from international standards set by the International Monetary Fund and the Financial Stability Board . The move comes amid growing global acceptance of cryptocurrencies and domestic pressures, including a nudge from the Supreme Court, to clarify India's stance on digital assets. Currently, India's cryptocurrency landscape is characterized by a 30% tax on gains and a 1% transaction levy, without formal recognition of crypto assets. These stringent tax measures have led to over 90% of Indian crypto trading shifting offshore, as reported by industry sources. The forthcoming discussion paper is expected to address these issues and invite public feedback, potentially paving the way for a more structured and innovation-friendly crypto ecosystem in the country. Despite the government's move towards regulation, the Reserve Bank of India maintains a cautious stance on cryptocurrencies. RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra reiterated concerns about the potential risks to financial stability and monetary policy, emphasizing that there has been no change in the central bank's position. The RBI continues to promote its own digital currency, the e₹, as a safer alternative to private digital assets. ADVERTISEMENT In parallel with developments in the crypto sector, the Indian government has introduced stricter requirements for claiming tax deductions in the assessment year 2025-26. Taxpayers are now mandated to provide detailed documentation when filing their Income Tax Returns , particularly under the old income tax regime. For instance, claiming House Rent Allowance now necessitates disclosing the place of work, actual HRA received, rent paid, and landlord information. Similarly, deductions under sections 80C and 80D require specific policy or receipt numbers and details of the insurance providers. These measures aim to reduce fraudulent claims by enabling the tax department to cross-verify the eligibility of deductions. To assist taxpayers in navigating these complex requirements, AI-driven platforms like TaxBuddy have emerged as valuable tools. TaxBuddy simplifies the tax filing process by offering automation that pre-fills ITR forms using data from PAN, Aadhaar, and uploaded documents. The platform reduces manual data entry and minimizes errors, making the process faster and more efficient. Additionally, TaxBuddy provides expert assistance for complex tax situations, post-filing support for notices or audits, and secure data handling for peace of mind. Meanwhile, affluent individuals are increasingly leveraging agricultural income exemptions to reduce their tax liabilities. Under the Income Tax Bill 2025, while genuine agricultural income remains tax-free, the government has introduced stricter documentation requirements to verify farming activities. This move aims to curb the misuse of agricultural income exemptions by wealthy individuals who invest in farmlands primarily for tax benefits. Tax experts have highlighted cases where individuals with substantial agricultural revenues have legally avoided significant tax payments, underscoring the need for more transparent and equitable tax policies.
