WHEN considering foreign direct investment inflows, the focus is generally on the manufacturing and services sectors of the economy. Real estate is not high on the radar. But this is likely to change now as foreign investment in land and development is rising rapidly. Inflows in the first quarter of 2025 have grown by as much as 30 per cent, bringing the total FDI to $1.3 billion. India is now seventh on the list of top 10 global cross-border destinations for real estate, according to the latest report by a real estate services firm, Colliers.
