The way that Home Inspection is different in India than in North America or United Kingdom is that, Home Inspectors do not have a licensing authority that is government authorised. Apart from the fact that houses in India are predominantly built using kiln baked bricks or concrete blocks or even are just concrete walls (predominantly in high rise apartments) this means the tests conducted are vastly different. Most companies providing Home Inspection services conduct non-destructive tests of the property, in come cases based on customer requirement tests that require core-cutting etc are also performed.
