The 17 cities, spread across Northern, Southern, Western, Eastern, and Central regions, are Amritsar, Ayodhya, Jaipur, Kanpur, Lucknow, Varanasi, Patna, Puri, Dwarka, Nagpur, Shirdi, Surat, Coimbatore, Kochi, Tirupati, Visakhapatnam, and Indore.
Seven of these cities, including Ayodhya, Varanasi, Puri, Dwarka, Shirdi, Tirupati, and Amritsar, are expected to drive growth through spiritual tourism. The Indian government's policy support and infrastructure developments are expected to boost spiritual tourism, attracting organized real estate players to these temple towns.
Smaller towns are emerging as dynamic contributors to India's economy, driven by improved infrastructure, affordable real estate, skilled talent, and government initiatives. This growth is set to propel the real estate sector to an estimated USD 1 trillion by 2030 and potentially USD 5 trillion, a 14-16 per cent share in GDP by 2050.
Colliers India's CEO, Badal Yagnik, noted that significant momentum is expected across residential, commercial, retail, hospitality, and industrial segments. Alternate asset classes such as data centers, senior living, and second homes are also poised for significant activity in these emerging real estate hotspots.
