The catch? Only 1 Property per shareholder is allowed. And so, many Business owners put their wives, parents, sons/daughters, etc., on the cap table. This allows one to split the gain of Rs. 100 crores into say 4 people and purchase 4 properties of Rs. 25 crores each (easier!).

Also, a property gives you a rent of 2.5% per year. Net would be around 2% after paying maintenance and other repair expenses. Across a 3-year period, you end up with Rs. 106 crores total including the rent. Include appreciation, and you easily end up at Rs. 115 crores.

@viraj_sheth It's quite the opposite. Millions of IITians, lawyers, doctors and CAs make crores, while so many influencers are unemployed and struggle for survival.

@darkandcrude More than Engineering college, IITs are generally a "center of excellence" where smart people assemble to learn from each other. It had to be given a name. So they called them Indian Institute of "Technology". BTW, things that you're referring to - food delivery, cab, etc., were

Apart from the above 2 expenses, we changed nothing. As I write this, I am wearing pyjamas bought from Decathlon worth Rs. 700 (~$10) only. We live a simple and peaceful life. We don't want the headache of buying expensive things, only to get unnecessary stress.

@hemal018 None. Pay tax only on the property appreciation above Rs. 100 crores. For instance, if you bought it for Rs. 100 crores and after 3 years, sold for Rs. 115 crores, then tax is only on Rs. 15 crores. With indexation benefit, that would also be close to nothing.

If you're young, focus on investing in yourself and your skills rather than in the Stock Market. Rs. 10k compounded at 12% will become Rs. 18k in 5 years. Rs. 10k invested in a course that helps you learn the right skill can fetch you a job worth Rs. 100k a month or more. Your
