Is it Correct option??

That US company, Incorporate a new Company in India & Hold the maximum Shareholding of that Indian Company to Control. And that Indian company invest funds in Real Estate, which is provided by US Company.

Whether it can do??

03 August 2013 I think, second option is better to control the company in India.
