Demand for commercial office space across the seven major cities in India is estimated at around 160 mn sq ft by 2014, a latest study by multi-national real-estate services firm Cushman and Wakefield Research (CWR) has revealed. The quantum of demand will mainly be concentrated in the metropolitan centres of Bangalore, Mumbai and National Capital Region of Delhi. Significantly, in all the metros except Bengaluru, supply will outstrip demand by 2014 as more office space will be created by then.
As per CWR projections, the demand for office space in NCR Delhi will be 30 mn sq ft by 2014 while the actual availability is expected to be 40 mn sq ft.In Mumbai, the supply (about 50 mn sq ft) will far outstrip the demand (30 mn sq ft) while in Chennai the supply by 2014 will reached 32 mn sq ft as against demand of 22 mn sq ft. In Kolkata, however, both the supply and the demand will be even at 10 mn sq ft.Bengaluru will have a shortfall in office space availability as the demand (35 mn sq ft) is projected to be more than the supply (30 mn sq ft) during the period.
