A new report shows Indian entrepreneurs are more optimistic about wealth growth and lifestyle expansion than their global peers. According to the Global Entrepreneurial Wealth Report 2025, 95% of India’s entrepreneurs expect their wealth to rise in the coming years, with 56% predicting significant growth.
This confidence is reflected in their spending. Indians allocate more toward luxury lifestyles, mobility, and wellness than global counterparts. Personal real estate (64%), health and wellness (61%), and luxury experiences (59%) rank highest among spending priorities. HSBC India’s Sandeep Batra said such investments “signal readiness to capitalize on the next wave of global opportunities.”
The optimism is strongest in markets including the UK, UAE, India, and Singapore. In India, 64% cited new investment opportunities, 56% pointed to portfolio performance, 54% cited a positive local economy, and 43% mentioned business performance as reasons for confidence.
Indian entrepreneurs also display a distinct global outlook: 73% hold multi-residency status, above the 56% global average. Many are open to relocating abroad, with the UK and US topping destinations, followed by Switzerland, UAE, and Singapore.
The top motivations for moving include a better quality of life for families (78%), access to investment opportunities (75%), and business expansion into new markets (71%).
The report highlights how Indian entrepreneurs are increasingly blending wealth growth with lifestyle choices and mobility, creating a distinct model of global entrepreneurial ambition.
