The real estate sector is one of
the most globally recognised sectors. The commercial real estate sector in
India continued to evolve in Q1 2017, witnessing an increased share of Tier 1-2
cities in the overall space take-up, coupled with a sustained rental growth.
From the perspective of office
space take-up, the first quarter of 2017 was one of the strongest first
quarters witnessed in the past several years. Leasing during the quarter was
mainly led by Delhi NCR (National Capital Region), Bangalore and Mumbai
accounting for almost 55% of the transaction activity, followed closely by
Hyderabad.
In North India, commercial real
estate market is hugely dominated by Delhi NCR, but, in recent times, Chandigarh
has shown signs of rapid growth.
Chandigarh is a union territory of
India serving as the capital of two states, Punjab and Haryana, is one of the
fastest growing cities. Commercial real estate here is growing significantly,
providing the much-needed infrastructural push to the city’s mounting needs.
Chandigarh’s commercial real estate
market has witnessed positive trends in the past year with residential values
noting an average appreciation of 10% across the city. There has been tremendous
growth in the city’s suburban localities such as Panchkula, Mohali, Zirakhpur
and Dera Bassi in terms of upcoming projects, growing demand and appreciating
values.
Chandigarh is a well-designed city,
and has been neatly divided into different sectors. Sector 17 (City centre) and
Sector 34 (emerging as a sub city centre) are key commercial/retail
destinations. A large chunk of development companies and builders are investing
here in commercial projects.
Currently, the administration has
reduced the collector rates in tune to 10% in commercial properties. This move
from the administration is going to benefit the investors and consumers and
will also attract more transaction in the location.
This glittering city because of its
booming economy fascinates investments of all sorts. And now, with the new
airport, things are being expected to change more rapidly in the Chandigarh commercial
real estate market. Numerous small and big commercial ventures are underway
around the airport ‘basin.’ Also brands like Tech Mahindra, Wipro and Bharti
Airtel are shifting the model towards an IT based economy.
