- Office vacancy decreased 70 bps q-o-q to 10.5% in Q4. ORR South East despite new supply additions, led vacancy reduction through robust leasing activity, while SBD South, Whitefield and SBD City also experienced vacancy declines due to significant leasing momentum.
Rents and capital values growing steadily with premium projects driving momentum
- Rentals increased 6.6% y-o-y as developers set new building rentals above prevailing market levels, particularly in premium submarkets experiencing tight vacancy levels.
- Property prices increased 8.6% y-o-y, driven by strong investor demand for high-grade assets with quality tenants and active transaction activity.
Outlook: Bengaluru expected to maintain its numero uno position as a real estate hub
- Bengaluru’s office market is firmly on the growth path with several global companies expanding tech and back-office operations. Future expansion will span manufacturing/engineering, healthcare, BFSI and flexible workspaces, adapting to evolving workplace needs.
- Bengaluru’s office market absorbs new supply while maintaining rent growth through robust leasing, creating strong investment conditions. Capital values should continue rising as sustained demand and solid fundamentals attract domestic and international investors.
