Impact of interest rate surge on the real estate sector
Interest rate hike and its impact on the real estate sector

The Indian diaspora has been an important source of inflow of funds in India. The remittances are received for a multitude of reasons, such as maintenance of family, repayment of loans or other purposes. Over the years, non-resident Indians (NRIs) have also invested a substantial sum in the real estate sector, including residential properties, due to its attractive valuation and potential for capital appreciation. NRIs may also inherit a residential property from their family members in India.
