RESIDENTIAL agents Hamptons International has announced the official opening of its Time Tower corporate office in Gurgaon, India following their successful expansion into the Indian market last year.

The new office will be located at Time Tower, Gurgaon, near Delhi and will provide clients with a full range of services including transaction management (purchase/sale), re-sale property, lettings, corporate leasing assignments, corporate disposition, project marketing and commercial property opportunities.

The Hamptons International team in India is led by Shruti Gupta – Head of India.

Said Shruti: "The country has seen a shift in dynamics in its property market over the last few years, which has been fuelled primarily by the huge growth of the Indian middle classes.

"A growing number of UK investors are attracted to the idea of buying property in India, due to its strong fundamentals and property price growth."

Hamptons International will be marketing a wealth of properties and developments across the whole of India from Chandigarh in the North, to Chennai in the South.

Some of the most prestigious developments include; the landmark Commonwealth Games Village Complex in Dehli; stylish & contemporary apartments in Gurgaon; luxury apartments in Mohali Hills, Chandigarh; premium apartments and villas in Hyderabad; and state of the art developments in Chennai.

India is currently one of the fastest growing economies in the world with over 8 per cent pa growth in gross domestic product (GDP) projected over the next few years. It has therefore become an extremely attractive location for overseas property investors.

Added Shruti: "The opening of Hamptons International India forms a key part of the company’s strong expansion strategy.

"Delhi is the capital city of India and a strategic presence in this area is vital. Our synergy with Emaar MGF enables us to provide enhanced access to stock, better client service levels and a better buying experience."
