Experts estimate that foreign investors can expect to reap over four times more profit in India than in the U.S. or Europe.

"In a recent report, PricewaterhouseCoopers predicted that close to $7 billion to $8 billion of venture capital will flow into Indian real estate over the next 18 to 30 months."
