Gross rental returns on apartments in South Mumbai have not improved, sitting at 3.9%, with a regular 120-sq. m unit generating a yield of 4.02%. Average apartment price increased to US$12,821 per sq. m, at almost US$4M for a 250-sq. m unit.
New Delhi and Bangalore apartments are much cheaper at US$3,865 and US$934 per sq. m, respectively. Yields, however, are slightly higher above 4%.

This is a very good schedule for an ovrview. Could you please tell me to which date the figures refer to?

Figures for delhi do not match. For example, for 180 sq m apartment in New Delhi city center, "to buy" price should be $3263*180=$587,340

Yup, looks like India has a good, old-fashioned housing bubble, just like everywhere else. Here in the US, landlords were bleeding money every month just to keep their rentals. But now, they're not bleeding money any more. They're just losing their houses to foreclosure and letting the bank take losses of 25-50%. It will only get worse from here, so whatever you do, don't buy a house. Just rent!
