Indian warehousing demand set to reach 1.2 billion sq ft by 2027

A notable shift towards high-quality infrastructure is driving the growth, with Grade A warehousing stock expected to increase from 290 million sq ft in 2023 to 400 million sq ft by 2027. E-commerce, third-party logistics (3PL), and omni-channel retail are emerging as primary drivers of this surge, especially in Tier I and increasingly in Tier II and III cities.

Warehouse absorption in Tier II and III markets saw a 41% rise from 11.6 million sq ft in 2022 to 16.4 million sq ft in 2023. This shift signals a growing emphasis on expanding logistics infrastructure beyond metro cities to meet rising regional demand...

The rise of automation is another key trend shaping the sector. By 2026, India is expected to become one of the top six users of warehouse automation systems globally, with the market estimated to reach $2 billion annually.

India's office space market is poised for a record-breaking year in 2024, with demand projected to surpass 70 million square feet, according to a recent report by Savills India, a global real estate advisory firm. This surge is attributed to robust activity in key sectors such as IT-BPM, flexible workspaces, and BFSI.

Between January and September 2024, office space absorption reached 55.1 million square feet, marking a 30% year-on-year increase across six major cities. This figure aligns with the total absorption for the entire year of 2022, setting a new benchmark for the January-September period. With only 7 million square feet needed to exceed 2023's total, 2024 is on track to achieve absorption levels between 70 and 74 million square feet.

The third quarter of 2024 alone saw office absorption rise to 20.2 million square feet, a 28% increase from the same period in 2023.

This is how much office space India will need by the end of 2024 - CNBC TV18

India's office space demand is set to exceed 70 million sqft in 2024, driven by IT-BPM, flexible workspaces, and BFSI sectors. Despite slowed new completions, vacancy rates decreased. Major cities like Bengaluru and Mumbai lead in absorption.

Millet no-one will eat if they have wheat and rice, coz it tastes crap and rice is more nutritionally rich than wheat is.

what is problem in wheat (except gluten)...it is good source of fiber nd protein. white rice hv also protein, but problem is high carbs. which can be problematic if u r not active person.
in uttarakhand many people eat ragi/madwa (finger Millet) chapati with mixing some wheat, that is very healthy...as rice substitute in villages some people eat red rice, which is also very healthy. i tried it, but its not smooth like white rice nd little rough to eat. but red rice kheer hv good taste.

we just need to look at their old jhumlas. they had started this jhumla of "jobless growth" years back for political reasons. so much effort is being put into disproving this theory.

in the mean time, so many opeds, so many academic papers, so many TV debates to promote this jhumla that came from this cozy club.

They use flagging 2 wheeler sales to show "rural distress" and lack of consumption. I was surprised that that metric was not used in the article .. Then I checked ..
