Introduction:

• The commercial office space sector in Bengaluru started 2023 conservatively, with a dip in office absorption during the January-March quarter due to global headwinds and delayed decision-making by occupiers.
• The Indian office sector faced challenges as decision-making in European and US markets was stalled, resulting in the withdrawal of about 10 million square feet of requests for proposals in the second half of 2022.

Office Space Supply:

• Developers in Bengaluru remain optimistic about launching Grade A office spaces, with an additional 12.66 million square feet of new office space added in FY22.
• The persistent demand for office spaces may lead to over a 10 percent increase in new office supply in FY23.
• Developers like Tata Realty and Puravankara are also entering the city’s office space sector, contributing to the supply.

Role of Flex Office Spaces:

• Flex office spaces, including co-working and managed office spaces, have emerged as a significant driver in the office sector, altering its dynamics.
• The flexibility offered by co-working and managed office spaces has allowed companies to strategically restructure their portfolios and diversify while saving costs.
• Areas like CBDs, Indiranagar, and Koramangala are preferred choices for flex spaces in Bengaluru, but suburbs like Whitefield and Outer Ring Road are also seeing increased demand.

Employee-Driven Market:

• The post-pandemic office space sector has shifted towards an employee-driven market.
• Companies are focusing on hybrid solutions, reflecting changing workplace dynamics.
• The return of outsourcing to Indian shores amid the global slowdown is boosting the co-working sector.

Growth Outlook:

• While Grade A office space rentals are expected to increase in Bengaluru due to rising land and construction costs, co-working leasing costs are expected to remain stable or see marginal increases.
• Flex offices are estimated to account for over 14 percent of the entire office portfolio by the end of the fiscal year.
• The sector is expected to grow gradually, with cautious steps being taken for new launches.

Conclusion:

• Flex office spaces have become a major game changer in the commercial office sector in Bengaluru, providing flexibility and cost-saving options for businesses.
• The sector is expected to continue growing, albeit at a steady pace, as companies navigate the evolving workplace landscape.
