The Kolkata office market remained subdued in 2014 with total absorption of around 1.66 million square feet, similar to 2013 levels. Demand was led by the BFSI, IT/ITES, and construction sectors. Limited supply addition of 1.14 million square feet and below-average absorption kept vacancy levels stable. Grade A office rents declined 7% year-over-year across micromarkets except one. Capital values decreased 16% year-over-year in peripheral locations but increased 3% in the CBD due to domestic investor demand. The market is expected to remain stagnant in 2015 until policy level issues are addressed.

Top ranking city for highest absorption rate continues to be Bangalore, Mumbai and NCR region with levels of 2.5 mln sq. ft., 1.41 mln sq. ft. and 1.45 mln sq. ft respectively.

The report gives an overall macroeconomic overview followed by latest real estate updates and trends in each city through supply and demand, rental and capital values as well as market prognosis for 2013 onwards.
We expect tenant favourable conditions to attract
domestic companies and Information Technology
majors to expand operations mainly in the New
Town, Rajarhat and Sector V micromarkets. Rents
are likely to register a 3-5% dip in Sector V and
peripheral areas of New Town and Rajarhat as
property owners are likely to remain flexible on rents
to boost occupancy in their buildings.

Market is likely to
remain stagnant in
2015
The Kolkata office occupier market continually remains
subdued for the second consecutive year as a result of the
policy level issues, with total absorption totalling around
1.66 million sq ft in 2014. This figure is similar to the 2013
levels. The primary contributor of this demand was BFSI
with around 25% share, followed by IT/ITeS with 21%
and the construction sector with 16%. Major transactions
include the purchase of large office spaces by local
companies and leases of about 40,000 sq ft by Serco Global,
30,000 sq ft by KPMG and 29,000 sq ft by British Telecom.
Due to weakening demand and policy level stagnancy,
developers deferred their projects and only about 1.14
million sq ft of prime office space was added to the city
office space. Major completions this year include Merlin
Infinity measuring 0.43 million sq ft and Martin Burn
Business Park consisting of 0.4 million sq ft office space.
Most of the projects completed this year are located in
Sector V/New Town. Around 16 million sq ft of office
space is at various levels of construction in the city, and is
expected to be completed by 2017.
Grade A office rents in Kolkata have continued on a
downward trend and declined by 7% YoY in the face of
relatively weak demand. Capital values showed mixed
trends across the city, with the CBD registering 3% increase
YoY on the back of domestic investor demand. Peripheral
locations like Sector V and New Town recorded a 16% YoY
decrease.
Limited supply addition and below-average absorption kept
the vacancy on the same levels.
For the first time in Kolkata, the local government reduced

the circle rate in the range of 8% to 33% across the city to
streamline property valuation by reducing discrepancies
between registration price and actual market value of
properties.
Looking at the weak demand, developers refrained from
launching new projects. Hence, no major new project was
launched in 2014. This further created an impact on the
rents as it declined by 7% YoY on the average across all the
micromarkets, except in SBD locations like EM Bypass,
Topsia and Ruby, where rents remained stable. Similarly,
capital values declined in Sector V and New Town by 10%
YoY but it rose by 8% YoY in the CBD due to robust demand
by local companies. All other micromarkets remained
stable.
Trends to watch for in 2015:
The next year is expected to remain stagnant until the city
receives a boost at the policy level. Developers will refrain
from completing their projects until they see a strong signal
of improving demand. The market will remain tenant
favourable and rents may decline further in peripheral
locations due to robust under-construction developments
in the pipeline. However, rents for prime office spaces
located in the CBD will remain unaltered due to consistent
demand and limited supply in this location.
