Office market remained buoyant with robust absorption India’s GDP grew by to 7.5% during Jan - April 2015, up from 6.6% in the previous quarter, supported by a strong expansion in manufacturing and services sectors.

The substantial reduction in inflation in last few months paved the way for RBI to cut repo rate in recent monetary policy reviews. This is the third policy rate cut in last five months, where the central bank had cut the rates by 75 basis points cumulatively.

Office market remained buoyant with approximately 10.5 million sq ft of office absorption in 8 major cities. This was around 24% increase from last quarter figures of 8.5 million sq ft. This quarter Mumbai marched ahead of Bengaluru and Delhi NCR in terms of city with the maximum absorption. Mumbai shared 28% of the total absorption followed by Delhi NCR (24%),Bengaluru (22%), Pune (17%), Chennai (7%) and Kolkata (2%).

Colliers View

Office market recorded approximately 19 million sq ft of office absorption in first half of the year across major cities in India. With an expanding economy and introduction of the REIT regulation, the demand for office space is increasing and so is the demand from institutional investors to acquire income yielding office property. We expect the momentum in office market to continue with cities like Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune and Gurgaon to witness maximum office uptake in coming quarters.

Mumbai records over 2.93 million sq ft, highest in the country for 2QBreaking the monotony of low absorption since 1Q 2013, Mumbai recorded an absorption of over 2.93 million sq ft in 2Q 2015. The regained trust of MNCs from BFSI, IT/ITeS, Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical, Media & Entertainment sector resulted in such phenomenal rise in office absorption. Occupiers from BFSI & IT/ITeS, alone took over 1.91 million sq ft, followed by Manufacturing & Pharma 0.61 million sq ft and Media & Entertainment 0.20 million sq ft.

The major deals in the second quarter were Home Credit taking up 0.16 million sq ft in Reliable Group’s ‘Tech Space’ located at Rabale, Bank of America leased 0.14 million sq ft in ‘ONE BKC’ by Wadhwa Group at Bandra Kurla Complex and Sutherland took 0.12 million sq ft in Reliable Tech Park located in Navi Mumbai.

This massive increase in absorption helped in confidence among investors as well as the developers and resulted in launch of new projects. City’s major developers announced many large scale projects like “Wall Street (0.78 million sq ft)” by Kanakia Group, “Skyline Icon Phase II (0.49 million sq ft)” by Skyline Group, “Rustomjee Central Park (0.24 million sq ft)” by Rustomjee Group and “Times Square IT D Wing (0.1 million sq ft)” by Ajmera Group. All of these projects are located in Andheri (East) micro market and expected to be complete between 3Q 2016 to 2Q 2017. In 2015, the city also witnessed completion of around 0.37 million sq ft in projects like “Carif (0.3 million sq ft)“ by Fairmont Constructions and “Metro Avenue (0.074 million sq ft)” by Jaynil Enterprises both located at Andheri (East).

As of beginning 3Q 2015, more than 11 million sq ft of Grade A supply is available in the market, primarily in Andheri (East), Goregaon/JVLR, Thane, BKC, Worli/Prabhadevi & Navi Mumbai remained flexible in lease terms due to huge inventory available in the market, the rents remained stable in most of the markets except Andheri (East) where due to an increase in absorption, the rents picked up by 7% QoQ. Occupiers preferred this location due to improved connectivity and reduced congestion on commencement of the metro rail. Announcement of the New Coastal Road linking Marine Drive to the Kandivali, also known as the Western Freeway has increased hopes of reduced traffic congestion in the City. Additionally, Metro-III from Colaba - SEEPZ, on which work is likely to begin, next year should also help in reducing the strain on the Local Suburban Train network and help in improving overall connectivity.

Colliers View

With clarity coming over IT/ITeS policy this quarter, absorption is likely to improve in near future as there are many RFPs from BFSI and IT/ITeS occupiers that are floating in the market. Rents are expected to remain stable across micro markets except for a few premium buildings, which will attract a premium due to their location and higher specifications due to their locations and high specs. Andheri (East) and BKC micro market will continue to be the most preferred office location among occupiers on the back of connectivity, infrastructure and availability of grade A stock.

Delhi office absorption doubles in 2Q, to reach 0.21 mn sq ft.After a weak start to the year, the Delhi office market picked up, with the city recording 0.21 million sq ft of new leasing volume. BFSI was the primary contributor of this demand with 44% share followed by Media & Entertainment (15%) and Manufacturing (13%). Locations like Aero City, Connaught Place, Saket and Okhla were the preferred one among occupiers and about 80% of the deals were concluded in these locations. In major office transactions, Amarchand Mangaldas took 45,000 sq ft in Religare House located at Saket, BTMU and BBC both took 40,000 million sq ft each in Bharti Worldmark located in Aero City.

The city witnessed about 0.3 million sq ft of new completions this quarter, including projects like NBCC Tower (0.15 million sq ft) by NBCC Ltd at Okhla Phase 1, Skipper House (0.11 million sq ft) by Government Trust of India at Connaught Place, AMP Tower (0.05 million sq ft) by AMP Infratech at Mohan Co-operative and an Individual building (0.018 million sq ft) by local developer at Okhla.

Similar to previous quarter no commercial grade A office space was launched in 2Q 2015. However, Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and National Buildings Construction Corporation Ltd. (NBCC) have jointly planned to develop 26 acres of residential cum commercial project known as “Lake View Complex” located near Trilokpuri in Delhi. The project is scheduled to be completed in 3-4 years at a cost of INR 1,500 to 1,800 crore to be borne by DDA. NBCC will be project management consultant for

this project. Apart from this DDA has also approved a commercial project on 51 hectare land named “Dwarka Centre” near metro corridor. The project will include a 14-hectare Dwarka Business Centre, which will act as a financial hub for banks and financial institutions.

Despite increase in absorption, overall average rents had declined by 2% QoQ, barring Nehru Place which witnessed a 4% QoQ increase.

Colliers View

We foresee an increase in absorption in coming quarters, especially from BFSI, Media & Entertainment and Government sector. Micro markets like Connaught Place, Aero City, Saket and Okhla will continue to attract maximum traction. Overall rents are expected to remain at the same levels in near term; however, few micro markets like Nehru Place, Saket and Ohkla may see marginal appreciation due to limited supply.

Snapdeal and Zomato, main contributors to office take upLed by the IT/ITeS sector, demand for office space pushes up. Approximately 1.8 million sq ft of office space was absorbed in 2Q 2015, about 60% more than the previous quarter. On a half yearly basis, the total absorption recorded was about 2.9 million sq ft which is around 19% more when compared to the last year’s same period figure of 2.45 million sq ft. IT/ITeS remained as the key driver of the office take up with 88% share followed by BSFI 10% and Others sharing just 8% of the total.

Major corporates like Snapdeal, NTT Data, Zomato, Arvato, BCG Group, SAP together took around 1.17 million sq ft which is about 66% of the total office absorption. Udyog Vihar was the most preferred location this quarter and about (0.79 million sq ft, 44%) of the deals were concluded. Apart from Udyog Vihar, occupiers also preferred office spaces on Golf Course Road and its extension and Sohna road (0.72 million sq ft, 40%).

With large under construction stock in pipeline, developers remained watchful in launching new projects and rather focused on completions. This quarter, the city witnessed an addition of 1 million sq ft of office space. The project that contributed to this new supply was Vatika City Next by Vatika Group, located along NH 8 in Sector 82. More than 17 million sq ft of Grade A commercial office space was available for fit-outs this quarter. This available supply is located in micro markets like Golf Course Road Extension/ Sohna Road (27%), Manesar (26%), Udyog Vihar (23%), NH 8 (14%), Institutional Sectors & M G Road (4%) and Golf Course Road (2%).

Inspite of increased absorption, Grade A office rents continued to remain under pressure in most of the micro markets and recorded an average decline of about 3% QoQ. However, locations like M G Road, Golf Course Road, DLF Cyber city recorded an increase in the range of 2 to 6% QoQ due to limited available supply in these micro markets.

In a major decision the Punjab and Haryana high court removed a stay on issuing change of land use (CLU) licences. Now builders can apply for CLU on their acquired land to develop residential or commercial properties. This is expected to give a boost to Gurgaon realty market. Also the stalled work on Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway resumes this quarter. The completion of the expressway would not only provide high speed link to northern Haryana with its southern districts like Gurgaon, Faridabad and Palwal, but also de-congest National Capital Territory of Delhi.

Colliers View

IT/ITeS sector will remain the key driver for office market. Cyber City and NH 8 will continue to remain the most preferred locations among corporate occupiers due to their connectivity advantages. Developers are expected to refrain from adding new supply or launch new project, due to high vacancy levels. There are limited large floor plate options in preferred micro markets like Cyber City, MG road and NH-8 the rents are expected to strengthen further in these areas while other peripheral locations will see stable rents scenario.

Office demand gives NOIDA a missNOIDA office market failed to revive in second consecutive quarter and only 0.50 million sq ft was absorbed in 2Q 2015. Apart from few smaller deals, only few big ticket deals were concluded mostly by IT/ITeS occupiers like We Technologies, Big Basket and Cognizant together who took around 0.16 million sq ft. Most of these Non SEZ warm shell deals were in the form of expansion, where occupiers were looking to expand their operational businesses due to good availability of talent pool in the city.

Few long pending mid-scale projects saw completion this quarter including; NPX Tower (1.50 million sq ft) by Urbatech located at Sector 153, Elixir Tower (0.22 million sq ft) by Cosmic Group at Sector 127 and an independent building (0.15 million sq ft) at Sector 16A. More than 21 million sq ft of prime office space was available for fit-out in 2Q 2015, most of this supply is located in institutional Sectors like 16A, 62 and Sector 125 to 142 (50%), followed by Commercial Sector 18 (49%) and Industrial Sectors 1 to 9, 57 – 60 and 63 – 65 (1%). Considering the huge pending inventory, developers refrained from launch any new project during this quarter.

High vacancy levels put pressure on rents which remained stable across micro markets. However an increase of 3% QoQ was witnessed in Institutional Sectors (Non IT).

The New Okhla Industrial Development Authority (NOIDA) plans to construct a six-lane elevated flyover which will enable the commuters a signal-free smooth drive of 5-km-long stretch between Noida Sector-41 to Noida Special Economic Zone of Phase-II industrial area. With an investment of around INR 500 crores project is expected to be ready by 2017.

This quarter, Kotak Mahindra Group and private equity fund New Vernon Capital have jointly bought Green Boulevard, an information technology (IT) park located in sector 62 at Noida for a consideration of approximately INR 270 crore from 3C Company. This was 3C’s second large transaction during this year in terms of divesting its assets. Earlier this year, it sold Oxygen, a special economic zone located in Noida to Blackstone Group.

Colliers View

The large inventory is not being absorbed due to a lack of demand. This is resulting in a downward pressure on rental values, and we expect this scenario to likely continue for a few more quarters. Developers are therefore flexible in negotiating lease terms, offering incentives to the IT/ITeS tenants who are the key demand driver in this city.

12 Research & Forecast Report | July 2015 | Colliers International

OMR takes the lead, continued to attract occupiers from IT/ITeSOnly 0.74 million sq ft was absorbed in the 2nd quarter resulting in 1st half of 2015 saw 12% less absorption compared to the same period in 2014. IT/ITeS was the primary contributor of this demand followed by BFSI. Few of the major occupiers this quarter were IT/ITeS MNCs like E4E, HCL and Solution Star and BFSI occupier like World Bank and Citi Corp Services. Rajiv Gandhi Salai (OMR), the IT corridor of Chennai continued to remain the preferred location for IT/ITES companies with 71% in total absorption this quarter, followed by Mount-Poonamallee Road 18% and CBD 7%.

New supply addition continued to remain muted in Chennai and the only major commercial project that witnessed completion in 2Q2015 was Rajkamal Pinnacle (0.07 million sq ft) by Olympia Group located at Nungambakkam High Road. About 8.6 million sq ft of grade A office space was available for fit-outs, which was located in OMR (IT Corridor) (54%), Ambattur (17%), CBD (15%), GST Road (7%), Off CBD (5%) and Mount-Poonamallee Road (2%).

Overall vacancy rates fell due to limited addition of new space. This was a prime reason for an upward revision in rents in the range of 4 to 7% QoQ in micro-markets like CBD, OMR I, GST Road and Ambattur. However, OMR (Post Toll) and Mount-Poonamallee Road were remained stable.

This quarter the long-awaited Chennai Metro Rail become operational. It runs between Alandur to Koyambedu, a 10.1 kms stretch. Apart from this two more stretches, Washermanpet to Airport (23.1 kms) and Chennai Central to St Thomas Mount (22 kms) part of Phase I, are expected to

This quarter SPREP Pte Ltd, a joint venture formed between Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) and Indian developer Shapoorji Pallonji Group bought its first commercial assets in the country with acquisition of an IT park named SP Infocity located in OMR at an enterprise value of $220 million. Through this investment by SPREP, CPPIB continues to demonstrate its long-term commitment to the Indian real estate market.

Colliers View

Office absorption is expected to grow in the second half of 2015. Primary drivers to this demand will be occupiers from IT/ITeS, BFSI and Manufacturing. Looking at the huge vacant inventory developers will remain cautious on completion and launch of new projects. Rents are expected to increase marginally in preferred micro markets like OMR (pre-toll), however rest other micro markets will remain under pressure until office demand improves.

Short pause in large deals leads to 26% decline in quarterly absorptionBengaluru recorded only 2.30 million sq ft of office absorption in 2Q 2015 which is about 26% less than the total office absorption of 1Q 2015. The primary reason of this decrease is fall in average deal size from 50,000 sq ft in first quarter to 38,000 sq ft in 2Q 2015. Most of the lease transactions can be attributed to expansion by companies from IT/ITeS sector like Concentrix, Danske IT and Support Services, SAP etc., took over 0.1 million sq ft each. Also occupiers from BFSI sectors like Axis Bank, RBS Bank also took more than 0.1 million sq ft this quarter.

2Q 2015 witnessed new supply of 1.3 million sq ft. Projects accounting for this new supply were 0.8 million sq ft “Global Technology Park (Maple tree – Phase 1)” by Adamas Builder along Outer Ring Road, RMZ developer completed two projects “RMZ Galleria” (0.3 million sq ft) at Yelahanka and “RMZ Latitude” (0.23 million sq ft) at Bellary Road.

The total ready stock available for lease stood at 6.4 million sq ft. Micro markets with the highest available supply were EPIP Zone/ Whitefield (44%), Electronic City (22%), Outer Ring Road (11%). Backed-up with consistent demand, developers continued to launch new projects during the quarter including; “Prestige VST Tower” (0.1 million sq ft) by Prestige Group at MG Road, “Adarsh Techpark” (0.08 million sq ft) by Adarsh Group at Outer Ring Road and an Individual developer launch “Tapasviji Tech Park” (0.05 million sq ft) at Whitefield. These projects are expected to complete by end

of 2016.

In select micro markets like Electronic City, Bannerghatta Road and Outer Ring Road (Marthalli - Sarjapur) rents increased averagely in the range of 2 – 9% QoQ, this is because of demand from IT/ITeS companies. Rest other micro markets remained stable.

With an investment of over INR 18,500 crores under PPP (Pubic Private Partnership) the BDA (Bangalore Development Authority) has planned approximately 75 kms of elevated roads network on the north - south corridor connecting Central Silk Board with Hebbal; east - west corridor - 1 connecting K R Puram with Yeshwantpur ; and east - west corridor - 2 connecting Janabharathi with Varthur.

Colliers View

Many RFPs are floating in the market; especially from IT/ITeS sector and we forecast an increase in office absorption in the coming quarters too. The EPIP Zone/ Whitefield, Electronic City and Outer Ring Road will continue to remain the most preferred office locations due to location advantages and competitive rents. Rents may rise marginally in demand led micro markets while other locations will have stable rental scenarios. In the long term developers will continue to add more new supply and will launch projects along with Outer Ring Road and Whitefield.

Office absorption shrunk by 18% QoQOffice transactions in Kolkata shrink to 0.25 million sq. ft. in 2Q 2015, down by about 18% from previous quarter. IT/ITeS remained as the key occupiers with 70% share of the total absorption. Most of these transactions were concluded in Sector V & New Town micro market in the form of relocation due to cost streamlining approach of occupiers. The most significant leasing transactions for 2Q 2015 were British Telecom leasing 0.1 million sq. ft. in DLF SEZ at New Town and Reliance Geo leasing 0.05 million sq. ft. of space in Globsyn Crystal at Sector V. Developers remained cautious this quarter as well due to diminishing demand.

The city did not witness any major new project launch or completion during the surveyed quarter. Although construction works of few large scale projects like “PS Srijan Tech Park-Phase II” at Sector V (0.05 million sq. ft.) are in advance stages of completion which will bring more new supply in coming quarters. Due to weak demand rents and capital values remained stable across all micro markets in Kolkata.

In order to promote the IT/ITeS investment in and around Kolkata, the state government is developing two IT parks of about 0.25 million sq. ft. and 0.20 million sq. ft. in Santiniketan and Durgapur respectively, which are expected to be completed by 2017. Apart from these, two more IT parks are planned in the outskirts of Kolkata in Siliguri and Bankura locations.

On the infrastructure front the metro work is in its advance stages, especially East West Metro corridor which will connect the IT hub of Salt Lake to the central part of the city, Sealdah. Also post government allocation of another INR 264 crores to acquire and clear the land hurdle for

New Garia-Kolkata Airport Metro project, swift-paced construction activities were witnessed on this corridor.

In a significant private equity transaction Milestone Capital Advisors exited from “Millennium Tower-I”, an IT commercial property located in Rajarhat New Town. The building fully occupied by IBM. According to VCCircle Market reports, the company exited its investment of INR 57 crore made in March 2008 for over INR 91 crores, which includes rental income of around INR 34 crore earned over

a period of 7 years.

Colliers View

In the short term, we anticipate that the rents will remain on the same levels in CBD and SBD locations however select micro markets like Salt Lake and New Town may witness a decline on account of piled up inventory. Supply will remain restricted as developers will refrain from completing the under construction projects and will add speculative supply until demand strengthens.

Pune office absorption reports an upswing, recorded at 1.84 million sq ftPune’s office property market saw a robust office space absorption in 2Q 2015. The city witnessed 1.84 million sq. ft. of office absorption in 2Q 2015 as compared to 0.89 million sq. ft. in first quarter. On a half yearly basis, 2.74 million sq. ft. office space was absorbed which is about 38% more as compared to the last year take-up for the same period. IT/ITeS occupiers were the primary demand drivers and leased approximately 70% of the total absorption in various grade ‘A’ office establishments located in Hinjewadi, Nagar Road, Airport Road/Pune Station and Baner. Apart from this BFSI sector also remains active with 17% share of total absorption. Most of these leases were for expansion and only few companies relocated from their existing offices to new locations in order to rationalize their rental outflows.

This quarter no new grade A office project were launched. Few small projects totalling 0.24 million sq ft of grade B office space were launched this quarter which are expected to complete by 2017.

About 4.8 million sq. ft. of grade A office supply was available for fit-outs as of 2Q 2015, most of which was located in micro markets like, Airport Road/Pune Station, Hinjewadi, Nagar Road, Kalyani Nagar and Senapati Bapat Road. Also about 0.22 million was added to the Pune’s total inventory this quarter; projects adding these supply were “Cello Platina” by Cello Group at F C Road and “Manara IT Block A” by MTPL at Hinjewadi.

Rents reinforced in few micro markets like Airport road/Pune station, Kalyani Nagar, Nagar Road, Hinjewadi and Kharadi during 2Q 2015, due to which overall Grade A office rents increased by 3% QoQ. In a major policy change this quarter, Maharashtra Government came out with revision of 2009 IT/ITeS policy which aimed at making the state an animation and gaming industry hub. The policy offered various incentives like increase in FSI and stamp duty being waived off. This is aimed at attracting INR 50,000 cr of investment and 1 million new jobs being created in the next 5 years.

Colliers View

With the new IT/ITeS policy offering various incentives, we anticipate demand momentum to continue from IT/ITeS occupiers in near to medium term. Companies looking for office space of 20,000 sq. ft. or above prefer Hinjewadi, Airport Road/Pune Station and Nagar Road micro markets due to decent grade A available supply, thus rents in these micro markets are expected to strengthen further. On the whole, vacancy levels are unlikely to change due to the overall demand supply equilibrium.
