If you work in Singapore's finance or tech sector and want a structured, compliance-clean route into Indian real estate, Pune is the market to study in 2026. With the rupee at multi-year lows against the Singapore dollar, your SGD savings convert further than they did even two years ago — making a Rs 2 Cr premium apartment in Baner or Kharadi a disciplined allocation, not a stretch. Prop Assist runs a dedicated NRI desk that handles everything from video site tours to POA registration, with zero brokerage charged to you and full MahaRERA-registered transparency (A52100047490).
Pune's fundamentals in mid-2026 read like a checklist written for a Singapore investor. Global Capability Centres absorbed over 8 million sqft of office space in Pune in the last 18 months, pulling senior tech and BFSI talent into Hinjewadi, Kharadi and Baner — exactly where premium residential supply is concentrated. Metro Line 3 (Hinjewadi-Shivajinagar, 23.3 km) has begun trial-to-commercial transition, compressing a 90-minute commute to under 40 minutes. The new airport terminal at Lohegaon has doubled passenger capacity, and Pune Ring Road land acquisition is substantially complete on the eastern arc.
Pricing still leaves headroom: Baner-Balewadi new launches trade at Rs 10,500-14,000 per sqft versus Rs 25,000+ in comparable Mumbai micro-markets. Most importantly, MahaRERA discipline — escrow accounts, quarterly project updates, penalty clauses for delays — gives you the regulatory comfort a Singapore-trained professional expects before wiring money across borders.
You do not need to fly down to buy well. Our process is built around the 2.5-hour time difference, so calls land in your evening, not your workday.
Keep this list ready and the transaction moves in weeks, not months:
For a typical Rs 1.5-3 Cr booking, home loan sanction from Indian banks takes 10-15 working days for Singapore salary earners, with funding up to 80% of agreement value.
At purchase, the rules are straightforward. If the property value exceeds Rs 50 Lakh — which every Prop Assist recommendation does, given our Rs 75 Lakh minimum and Rs 1 Cr-5 Cr+ sweet spot — you deduct 1% TDS under Section 194-IA on payments to a resident developer and deposit it via Form 26QB. We coordinate this with the developer's CA so no filing slips.
The India-Singapore DTAA ensures you are not taxed twice on the same income, relevant when you eventually earn capital gains on a future sale of your holding. On repatriation, RBI permits up to USD 1 million per financial year from NRO balances, supported by Form 15CA and a CA-certified Form 15CB. Funds originally remitted through NRE channels enjoy simpler repatriation. Our empanelled chartered accountants prepare both forms and the bank liaison end to end.
Prop Assist (Bluerock Enterprises LLP, MahaRERA agent registration A52100047490) charges you nothing — our fee comes from the developer, disclosed upfront, and your price is identical to walking into the sales office yourself. What you gain is a 15-year advisor: founder Vineeth Gopalakrishnan has closed 300+ transactions in Pune's premium segment and knows which branded developers — the names Singapore buyers consistently prefer — actually deliver on time.

Yes. Through live video site tours, digital document execution and a Power of Attorney signed at the Indian High Commission in Singapore, the entire purchase and registration can be completed remotely. Many of our Singapore clients first see their home in person only at possession.
Both are FEMA-compliant for property purchase from a developer. NRE funds are freely repatriable later, so most Singapore buyers route booking amounts and instalments through NRE. Our CA partner advises on the optimal structure before your first payment.
We advise on premium primary-sale homes starting at Rs 75 Lakh, with most Singapore clients transacting between Rs 1.2 Cr and Rs 3.5 Cr in micro-markets like Baner, Kharadi and Hinjewadi. Every project is MahaRERA-registered and bought directly from the developer.
On any purchase above Rs 50 Lakh from a resident developer, you deduct 1% TDS under Section 194-IA and deposit it via Form 26QB. Prop Assist coordinates the deduction schedule with the developer's finance team so your instalment payments stay compliant.
Yes — our compensation comes from the developer and is disclosed transparently, so your price matches or beats a direct walk-in. You get end-to-end advisory, POA support, loan coordination and post-booking updates at no cost. Verify our MahaRERA agent registration A52100047490 anytime.
