FDI in Real Estate in Indore

The high value residential project, Silver Springs will cover 137 acres on Bypass road with a built-up area of 6 million sq. ft of residential and commercial space.

The Madhya Pradesh government is actively supporting FDI funding
of real estate projects in the state, with the Chief Minister
personally committed to canvassing for foreign funds.

The Silver Spring township will bring international living standards
to this prosperous city which has seen large scale growth of
industry in the last decade.

The IT industry is showing promising
trends, and the project hopes to accommodate the 25,000 employees
that will be inducted within the industry.

The project itself
would create jobs for at least 12,000 skilled and semi-skilled
workers during the 4-5 years of construction.

The serviced township will offer several choices for residents
– from independent bungalows, to row houses, high rises, terrace
cottages and independent villas.

Architects from the UK, RMJM,
have been commissioned to design the luxury project. Townships
are also being planned along similar lines in Bhopal, Gwalior
and Jabalpur.

The investor, Fire Capital has a parallel foreign capital component
with a target size of USD 30 million. Its funds have been raised
from within India from high net worth individuals. The fund is
targeting a return of 30% for its investors.
