Before you ask
The three questions every Saudi NRI asks first.
“Can I trust a builder from Riyadh, 3,500 km away?”
You video-call the people who build your home — founder Vidit Kaushik (BITS Pilani, civil engineer) and co-founder Ravi Shankar Sharma (30+ years in Greater Noida real estate). A real named team, not a call centre.
“How do I send riyals to India legally?”
Route via your NRE or NRO account through banking channels. A Power of Attorney attested at the Indian consulate in Riyadh or Jeddah lets a trusted person sign on your behalf. Construction payments in milestones matched to verified progress. Consult your CA for your situation.
“Will I actually see the build from Saudi?”
Photo and video walkthroughs on WhatsApp at every stage — foundation to finishes. We call you at an afternoon KSA / evening IST slot so your work schedule isn’t disrupted.
Why this corridor, why now
The airport is live. The early-mover window is open.
India’s largest planned airport began commercial operations on the doorstep of this corridor. Here is what that has done to land — with sources, not hype.
15 Jun 2026
Noida Int’l Airport (Jewar, DXN) operational — domestic flights (IndiGo, Akasa); international targeted late Oct 2026 (not yet operating, no airlines confirmed)
Govt of India / Akashvani, Jun 2026+92–98%
Value growth, Noida & Greater Noida, 2020→Q1 2025
ANAROCK Research, 2025–26+40%
Authority plot rate, ₹25,900→₹36,260/sq m, 2024→26
YEIDA plot schemes12 M
Passengers per year — beside the YEIDA corridor
Airport Phase-1 specThe airport opened domestic-only as of June 2026; international flights are targeted for the winter schedule (around late October 2026); not yet operating, with no airlines or routes confirmed. It opened approximately four years later than the original target — we state that openly. Figures are historical or authority data with sources shown; past performance is not a guarantee of future returns.
The appreciation story — sourced
You don’t have to take our word for it. Look at the line.
Government plot rates and corridor apartment prices, tracked side by side. Every figure below is attributed and dated.
What this shows: ANAROCK Research reports Noida apartment values up ~92% and Greater Noida ~98% from 2020 to Q1 2025. The YEIDA authority allotment rate rose from ₹25,900/sq m (2024) to ₹36,260/sq m (2026, RPS-10) — approximately +40% in two years. Resale prices in prime sectors run higher and carry speculation risk. Analyst commentary (Knight Frank India, CBRE, April 2026) describes the operational airport as a strong demand catalyst for residential real estate. Forward projections are estimates, not guarantees.

Saudi Arabia NRIs: the FEMA rules that matter to you.
What you can buy
NRIs and OCIs may purchase residential and development-authority-allotted residential plots (including YEIDA plots) under FEMA / NDI Rules 2019. Agricultural land, farmhouses and plantations are not permitted.
Sending money from Saudi Arabia
Route via your NRE or NRO account through normal banking channels. No limit on NRE inward remittances. Payments are split into construction milestones, making it straightforward to remit in tranches from your Saudi salary.
Power of Attorney — Gulf process
Gulf-based NRIs get the PoA consulate-attested (not apostille) at the Indian consulate in Riyadh or Jeddah. A trusted person in India then signs on your behalf. We guide you through the document list.
TDS & repatriation
LTCG TDS rate is 12.5% (post 23 Jul 2024) plus applicable surcharge and cess, unless you obtain Form 13 from the income-tax department. NRE-funded proceeds repatriable for up to two residential properties; NRO route capped at USD 1M per year. Consult your CA — we flag what you need to ask.
This is general information, not legal or tax advice. Please consult your CA / FEMA advisor for your specific situation. Read the full NRI FEMA guide →

Questions, answered straight
What Saudi Arabia NRIs ask us before they buy.
Can a Saudi Arabia-based NRI buy land near the Noida airport?
Yes. Under FEMA and the NDI Rules 2019, NRIs and OCIs may purchase residential and development-authority-allotted residential plots (such as YEIDA plots) - but not agricultural land, farmhouses or plantations. Payment is made through NRE, NRO or FCNR banking channels. A Power of Attorney can be attested at the Indian consulate in Riyadh or Jeddah for Gulf-based signatories. Please confirm your eligibility with a CA / FEMA advisor.
How do I transfer money from Saudi Arabia legally to buy property in India?
Funds are routed from Saudi Arabia through your NRE or NRO account in India via normal banking channels. There is no limit on inward remittances for NRE accounts. A consulate-attested Power of Attorney lets a trusted person in India sign on your behalf. Construction is paid in milestones matched to verified progress, and we coordinate with your bank. Please consult your CA for your specific situation.
