India has had robust economic growth since 1991 when the government reversed
its socialist-inspired policy of a large public sector with extensive controls on the private sector and began to liberalize the economy. The economy has responded well by posting strong growth in many sectors. A 2003 report by Goldman Sachs predicts that India's economy would be the third largest by 2050.

With a GDP of $550 billion ($2.66 trillion at PPP) India has the world's 12th largest economy in US dollar terms and the 4th largest in PPP terms. A large and growing middle class of 300 million has a cumulative mind boggling disposable income for consumer goods.
India embarked on a series of economic reforms in 1991 under the leadership of current prime minister in reaction to a severe foreign exchange crisis. Those reforms have included liberalized foreign investment and exchange regimes, significant reductions in tariffs and other trade barriers, reform and modernization of the financial sector, and significant adjustments in government monetary and fiscal policies.

The reform process has had some very beneficial effects on the Indian economy, including higher growth rates, lower inflation, and significant increases in foreign investment. GDP has been growing at around 6% for the last ten years and is set to grow by at least as much in the next ten years. Foreign portfolio and direct investment flows have risen significantly since reforms began in 1991 and have contributed to healthy foreign currency reserves ($135 billion in October 2005).

Largest democracy with independent judiciary, stable and profitable banking sector, highly evolved and liquid capital markets and a respected economist at the helm of the government all support the premise of India being a favored investment destination.

And of course one cannot talk enough about the positive effects of IT boom happening all over the country. Abundance of cheap English speaking manpower continues to add to the efficiencies of corporations' world over. So much so that most of the global corporations now have an' India strategy' and those who do not, are furiously working on one. This has helped inject a sense of optimism in the nation's youth along with cash in their pockets, which they are only too happy to put back into circulation. No matter where one looks, one can see the signs of consumption led growth. And this growth at macro level is pushing up the demand for real estate properties in areas like Delhi, NCR region (Gurgaon, Noida, Greater Noida, Faridabad, Ghaziabad), Mumbai, Bangalore, Lucknow and Kanpur. And historically low interest rates are making it affordable for more and more people to afford investing into real estate, which further pushes the prices higher.

To ensure that this engine of growth does not falter, Indian government has recently announced the following initiatives;

  • Dismantling of stringent rules
  • Relaxed property tax
  • Less stamp duty if the property is registered in the name of a woman
  • Allowing FDI in the real estate industry
  • 100% repatriation allowed for NRIs investment in the country

It is only recently that the realization has occurred that labor is as much of an asset in India as it is outside India. It is the abundance of this labor that is bringing in the capital, which would in medium to long-term increase the productivity and make India the super power it deserves to be. The snowball has started rolling and it is a question of when not if it turns into an avalanche.
