Have You Seen Many Indian Men Dress Formally?

I've seen quite a bit of Indian men walking around the streets wearing dress shirts and khaki types of clothes. Is this from the British colonial days or something?

It is a cultural thing the guys like to dress up and be fancy looking, so really formal clean shirt and a casual pair or pants most Indian will have at least twelve or twenty shirts and two or three pairs of pants.
