Aggressively competing with old and weary CBD
stock
The new and modern supply, especially in Lower Parel is creating
new level of interest from corporate occupiers mostly in the banking
and financial services industry. With aggressive price positioning,
superior and modern building quality, the area is taking up major
tenants from CBD area of Nariman point. There is fresh supply to the
tune of 2 million. sq.ft which will come up by end of 2009 and
600 therefore will keep the letting and selling rates on a stable mode.
Rental Values (in Rs / sq.ft / month)
There is good amount of enquires from investors, to buy properties in
500 this micro market, however there is very less stock available for sale.
The area was expected to record some large ticket transactions of
upwards of 50,000 sq.ft. from 3-4 tenants, which has got postponed
400 to next quarter. We expect that this area will witness some major
letting transactions from corporate occupiers in the next six months.
