PrimeSpaceWorks Services Report, FY 2026-27 Q1

The April to June quarter opened the financial year with demand led by global capability centres and enterprise occupiers, a noticeably softer start to leasing in Delhi-NCR, and a busy policy and infrastructure calendar in Haryana. For occupiers in Gurugram, the quarter rewarded early, well-documented requirements over opportunistic searches.

PrimeSpaceWorks operates as an occupier-first commercial real-estate and workspace advisory practice across Gurugram and the wider NCR market.

Demand: capability centres and enterprise occupiers set the tone

National coverage through the quarter described global capability centres as the most consistent source of new office demand, with enterprises favouring quality, well-serviced buildings. Reporting on Delhi-NCR also pointed to a slower opening period for leasing, which in practice gave prepared occupiers more room to compare options carefully rather than commit early.

Flexible workspace moves into the mainstream

Rating-agency and business-press commentary framed flexible and managed workspace as a maturing segment, supported by capability-centre and start-up demand. A public push for work-from-home in May prompted analysis that near-term demand for flexible formats could rise, which reinforces the case for keeping a flexible option on every shortlist.

Quality over quantity

Market coverage described a decisive tilt toward Grade A space. For occupiers this means the gap between premium and secondary stock is widening, so building services, power backup, access and compliance deserve as much scrutiny as headline commercials.

Policy and infrastructure in Haryana

The Haryana Cabinet cleared a revised cost estimate for the Gurugram Metro corridor, and progress updates set out the timeline for the line. A land-pooling policy decision, a rule requiring EV charging infrastructure in new buildings, and court scrutiny of a residential construction policy over urban infrastructure gaps all signalled that infrastructure capacity is now central to how the city grows.

• Track metro corridor milestones before committing to locations that depend on future connectivity.
• Ask landlords how new EV-charging and building-services rules will be met and who carries the cost.
• Keep a managed or flexible option in each shortlist while hybrid-work policies settle.
