Leasing Highlights

Forging new partnerships with an unmatched portfolio and services

India Inc is returning to working from offices, creating suitable policies to bring their employees back in a phased manner. The ebbing of the pandemic along with vaccination coverage has given organizations the confidence to resume work from office. Organizations understand the importance of physical workspace in building the engaging culture for their workforce, in an environment that ranks high on safety protocols.

At Mindspace REIT we believe in investing in the wellbeing and delight of our tenants and their workforce. A significant increase in IT/ITeS hiring and return-to-work plans along with the Mindspace REIT promise of safety and top-notch quality ensured that 36 new tenants were added to our portfolio. It is our constant pursuit to build a harmonious association with our tenants and partners by upgrading and redesigning spaces to suit their changing needs. 31 of our tenants re-leased with us in the last year. Even during the year impacted by external factors, our strong connect allowed us to re-lease 50% of expiries during the year. This is reflective of the deep association we have nurtured with our tenants, our commitment to growth, and building an egalitarian work environment.

Our trusted partnership with marquee tenants has ensured a record pre-leasing of the entire under construction building of c. 0.7 msf at Commerzone Kharadi, Pune. We also entirely leased our CBD asset of 0.1 msf, The Square BKC, Mumbai Region to IDFC Ltd. Expertise of our able leasing team ensured FY22 turned out to be the best leasing year for the portfolio.

Our all three ROFO assets saw leasing momentum elevate with notable deal being pre-leasing of an entire building of c. 1.8 msf at Commerzone Madhapur, Hyderabad.
