Indian buyers remain Dubai's largest international investor group as Meraki Developers launches India initiative

The initiative brings direct conversations around Dubai's evolving property market to five Indian cities amid rising investor appetite

MUMBAI, India, May 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Indian investors continue to reinforce their position as Dubai's largest international real estate buyer group, accounting for an estimated 20–22 per cent of all foreign property purchases in the emirate, according to Anarock Group. Backed by record real estate transactions of AED 917 billion (approximately INR 2,400 crores) in 2025, according to the Dubai Land Department, Dubai continues to attract Indian buyers seeking long term wealth creation, global connectivity, and lifestyle-led ownership opportunities.

Building on this sustained demand, Meraki Developers, a vertically integrated developer and contractor with over two decades of experience in the market and over 110 projects delivered, is launching a strategic multi-city India outreach initiative across Ludhiana, Chandigarh, Karnal, Surat, and Ahmedabad, reflecting growing appetite among Indian investors for Dubai real estate and building on its reputation for quality and deliverability. The initiative will be followed by a second phase, extending the conversation to additional key Indian cities. The roadshow will create direct conversations around the factors continuing to drive demand in Dubai, including market resilience, global connectivity, ease of access, and proximity to India, and Dubai's emergence as a preferred destination for long term investment. 

"Indian buyers' interest in Dubai real estate continues to evolve alongside the maturity of the market," said Ajay Rajendran, Founder and Chairman of Meraki Developers. "Investors are becoming increasingly intentional about where they deploy capital globally, with greater focus on market resilience, long-term opportunity, and quality of life. Dubai's proximity to India, strong fundamentals, and position among the world's top-performing real estate markets continue to make it a compelling choice."

Rajendran added: "We're seeing particularly strong traction from entrepreneurial communities and business families across regions such as Punjab and Gujarat, where overseas real estate is increasingly being viewed as a strategic long term portfolio decision rather than a purely transactional investment." 

As Dubai continues to attract global capital and long-term residents alike, Meraki Developers aims to play an active role in connecting Indian investors with the city's next chapter of growth.
