Why NRIs and HNIs Are Buying Luxury Homes in Bengaluru in 2025

In 2025, Bengaluru has become one of the most popular cities in India for luxury home buyers. It's not just about big homes anymore—it's about smart investments and a better way of living. NRIs (Non-Resident Indians) and HNIs (High Net-Worth Individuals) are buying homes here not just for comfort, but for long-term value.

Luxury homes in Bengaluru are seeing record-breaking sales this year. In FY25, homes priced at ₹10 crore and above brought in sales worth ₹1,000 crore. That's a 59% jump from last year's ₹627 crore. The number of homes sold in this range also grew—from 51 units last year to 78 units this year.

Apartments priced between ₹10 to ₹12 crore are the most popular among buyers. In fact, just one neighborhood—Hebbal—accounted for 22% of Bengaluru's total luxury sales value and 19% of the homes sold in FY25.

Even in homes priced ₹4 crore and above, the growth is huge. In Q1 2024, only 20 such homes were sold. In Q1 2025, that number jumped to around 190—a nearly 10x increase (Source: CBRE).

Property values are also rising. In 2024, Bengaluru's luxury market saw a 4.1% price increase, placing it among the world's top cities for high-end real estate (according to Knight Frank's PIRI 100 index).


Bengaluru is India's tech capital. It's home to major global companies, IT parks, and fast-growing startups. These jobs bring in high salaries and attract professionals from around the world. That's why Bengaluru stays in demand, even when other markets slow down.

A recent survey by India Sotheby's shows that:

  1. 55% of HNIs now invest in luxury homes to build long-term wealth (up from 44% last year).
  2. Nearly half of them expect a return of 12% to 18% from their investments.

Luxury homes are seen as a safe and steady asset, especially during uncertain times.

Today's buyers want more than a house. They want:

  1. Smart home features
  2. Peaceful green surroundings
  3. Clubhouses, gyms, yoga spaces, and work-from-home setups
  4. Gated communities with privacy and good security

Projects like Birla Evara on Sarjapur Road offer exactly this. With green spaces, modern layouts, and luxury amenities, homes here match global standards. It's one reason why NRIs and HNIs are so interested in this part of East Bengaluru.


Thanks to the RERA law, real estate in India is now more transparent. Buyers, especially NRIs, feel safer investing since they can track approvals, timelines, and builder performance.

Also, buying property from abroad has become easier:

  1. Online site visits and virtual walkthroughs
  2. Legal transactions through NRE/NRO accounts (as per FEMA rules)
  3. Tax savings through benefits under Sections 80C, 24(b), and double taxation treaties (DTAA)

Bengaluru has a big demand for luxury rentals:

  1. Monthly rents for villas have gone up to ₹4 lakh in some cases.
  2. Around 25–30% of these homes are rented by NRIs—especially senior executives returning to India or expats who want premium housing.

So, even if buyers don't live in the home right away, they can earn steady income through rent.

Mayank Ruia, founder of MAIA Estates, explains that today's luxury is not about showing off—it's about thoughtful design and long-term value.

He says, "We build homes like homeowners—not like builders. We care about privacy, comfort, and future-readiness."

MAIA uses:

  • Solar energy for common areas
  • Recycled water systems
  • EV charging points
  • Performance glass to save electricity
  • Tree preservation and eco-friendly construction methods

This shows that true luxury now includes being kind to the planet, not just having fancy interiors.

Projects like Birla Evara also follow similar ideas—blending modern living with green practices to create homes that are healthy, peaceful, and long-lasting.

Buying a luxury home in Bengaluru is a big decision. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Prices are high: Be ready for a premium entry cost.
  • Managing from abroad: If you're an NRI, consider hiring a professional property manager.
  • Know your taxes: Understand short-term and long-term capital gains tax. Also, take help from a tax advisor for DTAA rules if you live abroad.
  • Do your research: Check if the project is RERA-registered. Look at the builder's past record and delivery history.

Experts believe the luxury segment will continue to grow. Here's why:

  1. The Metro expansion and new roads like the Peripheral Ring Road will improve travel time and boost property values.
  2. More high-net-worth buyers are moving to Bengaluru for work, education, or lifestyle upgrades.
  3. Developers like MAIA and Birla Estates are planning new projects with smart features, low-density layouts, and high-end amenities.

For NRIs and HNIs, Bengaluru offers more than just homes. It offers a chance to invest in a strong economy, enjoy a premium lifestyle, and build long-term wealth. With trusted builders, smart design, and modern infrastructure, luxury real estate in the city is no longer just a status symbol—it's a smart choice.

Whether it's a large-format villa in Hebbal or a modern smart apartment in Sarjapur Road like Birla Evara, Bengaluru is where the future of luxury living is being built.
