A new wave of real estate enthusiasm is sweeping across India, driven by Dutch NRIs seeking luxury vacation homes that blend emotional connection with financial returns. This trend marks a strategic shift in diaspora investment behavior, with Amsterdam’s Indian-origin community leading the charge.
Key Developments in the Investment Landscape
- Dutch NRIs, including Hindustani-Surinami Indians and highly skilled professionals, are increasingly purchasing hill homes, beach villas, and farmlands across India.
- Delhi NCR and Mumbai dominate luxury sales, with a 57 percent and 1,200-unit contribution respectively in H1 2025.
- Premium homes priced above ₹1 crore now account for 62 percent of residential transactions, up from 51 percent last year.
Why the Netherlands Is Emerging as a Hotspot

- Favorable tax policies like the 30 percent ruling boost disposable income.
- Emotional ties and cultural nostalgia drive demand for second homes in India.
Investor Preferences and Market Strategy
- Dutch NRIs favor ready-to-move-in vacation assets offering rental returns via platforms like Airbnb and StayVista.
- Price sweet spot: ₹2.5–₹5.5 crore, with projected demand for 300–400 units annually.
- BEGIN India Think Tank is launching initiatives across 12 countries to tap into this sentiment.
India’s Appeal Amid Global Volatility
- India’s real estate market is projected to grow at 9–11 percent CAGR through 2030.
- Destinations like Shimla, Goa, and Kochi are emerging as top picks for diaspora-led investments.
