Bangalore,17th January 2019: International
Property Consultants, Savills India launched a comprehensive report Office Market Watch 2019 on country’s
top Office markets including Mumbai, National Capital Region, Bangalore,
Chennai, Pune and Hyderabad.The report highlights that Office Space demand in
2019 bettered the previous historic benchmark of 2018 by 22% amounting to a gross absorption of 57.72 mn sq.ft.The year 2020 too, is likely to be marked with
strong demand for quality commercial office space driven by several factors
like expansions, consolidations and upgrades to employee centric workspaces.
Anurag Mathur, CEO, Savills India said “The commercial segment,
especially, the office space market is going from strength to strength, beating
its own record of 47.3mn sq.ft. in 2018, to set a new one at 57.7 mn sq.ft.in
2019. This growth symbolises that office space across key markets is on a
strong footing, based largely on India’s increasing capabilities in technology
sector, rise in flexible spaces, formalisation of the Indian economy and the
growing offshoring by western corporations. Despite headwinds in the domestic economy,
we expect this growth to trend in 2020 as well. This should hold the overall Indian
real estate industryin good stead in the long-term.”
