The report, titled 'Karnataka Horizon Navigating Real Estate Excellence in the South', highlighted that Bengaluru's office stock has more than doubled to over 223 million square feet as of June 2024, from 100 million square feet in 2013. The city accounts for the largest contribution to the overall office stock in India, which stood at 880.7 million square feet as of June 2024.
The technology, engineering, and manufacturing sectors are expected to drive demand in Bengaluru's office market, alongside life sciences, aviation, and automobile as emerging sectors. The city has led demand amongst global capability centres (GCCs) in India with a 41% share between 2022 - June, 2024, thanks to its skilled talent pool, premium Grade-A assets, and well-developed IT ecosystem.
Bengaluru's retail real estate stock has also more than doubled to over 16 million square feet as of June 2024, from 7.2 million square feet in 2013. This segment is primarily driven by entertainment, fashion and apparel, and homeware and department stores, each accounting for about 20-30% of the annual demand.
The city is expected to grow extensively in the peripheral regions, driven by the availability of large-sized land parcels and multiple upcoming infrastructure initiatives. However, long-term challenges such as ease of doing business, high land costs, and efficient space utilization need to be addressed to maintain Bengaluru's edge in the commercial real estate market.
