The availability of a skilled talent pool at a relatively lower cost compared to major metropolitan areas is one of the most crucial factors driving the growth of commercial real estate in satellite cities. Infrastructure development, proximity to major cities, competitive rental rates, and access to quality talent are attracting large corporations to set up offices in these cities.
Navi Mumbai, for instance, is expected to see robust growth potential as a top choice for IT, banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), and global capability centers (GCCs), along with an emerging hub for data centers in India. The city offers a lower cost of living, hosts significant tech firms and GCCs, and provides a healthy work-life balance.
Pune, as an educational hub, supplies a vast talent pool for tech, BFSI, and manufacturing GCCs, combining lower living costs with strong infrastructure. Similar demand from IT/ITeS companies has been seen in cities such as Jaipur, Indore, Ahmedabad, Vizag, Lucknow, Bhubaneswar, Cochin, and Coimbatore, with exponential growth in the past 24 months.
The lower cost of living in satellite cities translates to lower operational costs for businesses, allowing them to offer competitive salaries while maintaining profitability. The enhanced quality of life, with less congestion and pollution, coupled with modern amenities, is attracting both employers and employees to relocate from overcrowded urban centers.
This migration is creating a vibrant commercial real estate market, characterized by increased demand for office spaces, retail outlets, and co-working environments, further solidifying the role of satellite cities in India's economic growth trajectory.
The Indian commercial real estate market has seen significant growth in recent years, driven by factors such as infrastructure development, urbanization, and government initiatives. As the market continues to evolve, satellite cities are increasingly playing a crucial role in reshaping the commercial real estate landscape.
