India deferred decision on allowing Foreign Direct Investment flow into Indian Real Estate. Sources tell us that part of current UPA alliance led by the congress party is split on the implication of allowing FDA into Indian Real Estate. The left parties are also reluctant on the same.

Based on internal sources in the Government, it is a question of time tough before the FDI is allowed into Indian Real Estate.

The Union Cabinet on Thursday deferred a decision on a proposal to allow FDI in construction sector. "The proposal has been deferred due to ongoing elections in Bihar and Jharkhand," Commerce and Industry Minister Kamal Nath told reporters.

The proposal was to relax existing 100-acre norm for FDI inflow and allow it in the office accommodation sector of 50,000 sq ft. Besides this, the earlier stipulation of FDI in integrated township development is also sought to be relaxed. The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs was expected to consider allowing FDI in construction starting from 25 acres against the current practise of allowing FDI in 100 acres applicable only in integrated towns.
