Hyderabad has steadily risen to a position among the top three office markets of the country. In terms of office leasing volumes, it has progressed from being a distant sixth to its current position in a span of just three years. In 2019, the city registered record transaction activity of approximately 9.5 million sq ft, just behind Bangalore and the National Capital Region (NCR).

The rise in commercial leasing activity can be attributed to a variety of factors. These include government support by way of investor friendly policies and infrastructure growth matching urban agglomeration expansion; as well as enabling demographics which has created an abundant and skilled talent pool. Also, the influx of MNCs over the last two decades has been instrumental in setting up large campuses and office complexes in the city. In recent landmark legislation, the state government announced a single window portal facilitating faster clearances and self-certification for real estate construction on land parcels of a specific size. Such enabling regulations have provided an important boost to the real estate sector in the city.
