Very good post YoursTruly...
Given the projected growth rates , investing in india is a good bet ...indian corporate sector has great potential .
Maybe a financial adviser could help more but i feel it is would be prudent for Canadian desis to keep atleast some investments in indian stocks and bonds.
Commercial real estate is also a great investment prospect, the only challenge is that without full convertability of Rupee, how to get the remittance here.
Lets hear from any finance guys.

What can be imagined, can be achieved.
I heard this from the Real Estate , Bangalore . Property has soared in the last 6 months . A friend who brought a flat for INR 15 lacs 06 months back has sold it recently for 21 lacs ................ thats 6 lacs in 6 months and rumors say that the trend is here to stay !!
Beware the "bhu" mafia though .

The other problem I faced was trying to find a stock broker who deals with NRI. Banks like ICICI have an internet based service (called ICICI Direct) for NRI's and Resident Indians but they were not open to NRI's based in North America - this information was current as of Feb/Mar. I also tried contacting another stock broker (is is Kothari?) but then they were not dealing with NRI although they had plans to open their services for NRI in future. Haven't heard from them though so far.
Wonder how others have got around this.
