12/8/2025Bengaluru has once again made headlines in the commercial real estate sector by leading India’s GCC (Global Capability Center) leasing market with record-breaking absorption in 2023. The city’s dynamic business environment, combined with a growing pool of skilled professionals, has made it the top destination for global companies looking to set up their operations in India. This surge in demand for office space by GCCs has significantly boosted the office leasing market in Bengaluru, setting it apart from other major Indian cities.
One of the key reasons behind Bengaluru’s dominance in the GCC leasing market is its well-established ecosystem of technology parks and modern office spaces. Areas like Whitefield, Outer Ring Road, and Electronic City have become synonymous with IT hubs, attracting multinational corporations and top talent from across the country. Global companies prefer Bengaluru for their Global Capability Centers due to the city’s robust infrastructure, availability of talent, and strong support from the local government for business development.
In 2023, reports indicate that Bengaluru accounted for a significant share of total office leasing by GCCs in India, outpacing cities like Hyderabad, Pune, and Gurugram. The city witnessed a surge in demand from sectors such as information technology, financial services, healthcare, and engineering, all of which are increasingly choosing Bengaluru as their base for setting up global operations. This has led to a healthy competition among commercial real estate developers, ensuring that companies have access to premium office spaces equipped with modern amenities.

Another factor driving the GCC leasing market in Bengaluru is the city’s reputation as the “Silicon Valley of India.” The presence of top-tier educational institutions and a strong startup ecosystem has created a continuous supply of skilled professionals. Many global organizations are leveraging this talent pool to establish their innovation centers, research and development hubs, and digital transformation teams in the city. As a result, the demand for flexible office spaces, coworking spaces, and large corporate campuses continues to soar.
Let’s not forget the impact of remote and hybrid work trends, which have influenced the way companies approach office leasing. Despite the rise of flexible work models, global firms setting up GCCs in Bengaluru are focusing on creating collaborative and employee-friendly workspaces. This strategy is helping them attract and retain the best talent in a highly competitive market.
The city’s well-connected transportation network, vibrant cultural scene, and cosmopolitan lifestyle further enhance its appeal for both employers and employees. As more global companies look to expand their presence in India, Bengaluru’s leadership in the GCC leasing market is expected to continue, making it a hotspot for commercial real estate investments and business growth.
