SUMMARY

The commercial market witnessed highest number of completions along the Outer Ring Road in the secondary business district. The overall Grade A commercial developments in 2009 crossed the total completed figures of 2008 signifying the initial signs of revival. The infrastructural development like the Traffic and Transit Management centres, flyovers and ongoing metro construction in the CBD and the SBD are expected to boost leasing activities in these micro markets in 2010.

In the Bangalore Retail Market, expansions in secondary high streets were more active as compared to under construction malls and primary high streets. This was largely on account of limited availability of ready to occupy stores in newly launched malls and vacant properties at reasonable rates on primary high streets. Limited budget for expansion and delay in mall completions, encouraged the retailers to opt for reasonable yet lucrative secondary micro-markets.

The Bangalore Residential market witnessed limited number of newly launched projects across the micro markets during 2009 because the developers postponed the launch of their projects on account of ample availability in under construction projects. The concept of budget apartments where in the total Built Up Area (BUA) for apartments varied from 950 sq ft to 1,050 sq ft gained popularity in the Peripheral Business Districts. For the year 2010, it is expected that the completion of flyovers, elevated highways and complementary commercial and retail projects will boost the demand for Residential Real Estate in Secondary and Peripheral micro-markets.

5I ICITY REPORTBANGALORE MARKET OVERVIEW - 2009

BANGALORE COMMERCIAL MARKET

The Bangalore office market witnessed continuous increase in supply of Grade A buildings along all the micro-markets across the four quarters of 2009. The total supply in 2009 was approximately 9.20 mn sq ft as compared to 5.19 mn sq ft in 2008. The largest amount of completion was recorded along Outer Ring Road stretch while the CBD also significantly contributed to Grade A stock as compared to 2008.

In the year 2009, the rental and the capital values increased in the range of 1.4%-15% and 2.9%-10.2% respectively across the micro markets except in Electronic City, while the vacancy rates were also significantly high across micro markets as compared to 2008. The average vacancy rate in CBD stood at 1.8% while in SBD and PBD it was marked approximately at 8.5% and 17% respectively in 2009.

i) Overview

Supply & Vacancy TrendThe CBD witnessed completion of 0.53 mn sq ft with six new developments over the four quarters of 2009 as compared to almost non-existent supply of Grade A buildings in year 2008. On account of significant addition to Grade A stock, the vacancy rate closed at 1.8% in 2009 while it remained as low as 0.1% in 2008. With the high demand in CBD we expect the vacancy rates to reach near zero levels. In 2009 the total volume of transactions was approximately 0.41 mn sq ft in the CBD of which about 0.13 mn sq ft (31.71%) was taken up in the fresh supply (new development), while the remaining was taken up in second generation buildings. This constituted of three large sized transactions and couple of small and medium-sized transactions in the range of (~8,000 to 15,000 sq ft).

Rental & Capital ValuesDespite the increase in vacancy rate in this micro-market, the average rentals of Grade A buildings marginally increased by 4.29% from INR 70/sq ft/month in 1H 2009 to INR 73/sq ft/month in 2H 2009, signifying improvement in the market scenario on account of increased number of inquiry for spaces in CBD. The y-o-y change in the rental values was insignificant as it increased by ~1.39% in 2009 from 2008. The y-o-y decrease is on the account of decrease in rentals during 1Q 09. The capital values also increased marginally by 4.28% from INR 7,200/sq ft in 1H 2009 to INR 7,508/sq ft in 2H 2009, while the y-o-y increase was approximately 2.85%.

Infrastructure DevelopmentIn addition to the ongoing metro project, Traffic and Transit Management Centre is proposed at the India Express circle in CBD, in order to promote public transport which in turn is expected to reduce the traffic congestion in CBD. . These public infrastructure developments along with the development of two 5 Star Hotel projects is expected to push up the rental values in future, on account of greater demand which is expected in the quarters to come.

Supply & Vacancy TrendThe SBD continued to be the most preferred location for occupiers due to sufficient supply of Grade A buildings at competitive prices, capacity to serve affordable residential requirement and supporting public infrastructure to enhance its connectivity to the entire city.

The total new completion of Grade A buildings in SBD was approximately 5.67 mn sq ft in 2009 of which 4.18 mn sq ft was delivered in 1H 2009. Compared to 2009 the total Grade A office supply in 2008 was approximately 3.86 mn sq ft. Most of the completions in 2009 were along the eastern stretch of outer ring road (Marathahalli – Sarjapur). On the other hand Koramangala, Old Airport Road and 100 Ft Indiranagar had very limited supply of Grade A buildings in 2009, but had significant supply of Grade B mixed use projects (viz. office and retail), which help in maximizing the project's overall rental returns.

The vacancy rate significantly increased and stood at 7.5% by the end of 2009 as compared to 0.1% in 2008. This marginal increase in the vacancy rate was on account of increased supply in 2009 and fall of few major deals that were concluded in 2008.

The total volume of transaction in SBD was the highest as compared to other micro-markets and stood at 3.15 mn sq ft in 2009. SBD recorded the highest number of transactions on account of availability of operational Business Parks and SEZ.

Rental & Capital ValuesThe average rental value in the SBD significantly increased by 12.5% from INR 40/sq ft/month in 1H 2009 to INR 45/sq ft/month in 2H 2009, which was on account of increased demand for office space in this micro-market. The y-o-y rental value also witnessed a positive change of approximately 12.5% from 2009 to 2008 on account of increased number of activities in this location, similarly the capital value also increased marginally by 10.2% from INR 4,000/sq ft during 1H 2009 to INR 4,409/sq ft by 2H 2009.

Infrastructure DevelopmentIn order to decrease traffic congestion and travel time to these micro-markets, Traffic and Transit Management centers are being developed in Kormangala, Old Airport road, Bannerghatta road and Jayanagar. Adequate public infrastructure accompanied by adequate supply at reasonable commercials is expected to continue attracting occupiers to these locations.

c) Periphery Business District (PBD)

Supply & Vacancy TrendThe market in the Whitefield area of PBD picked up during 2009, as significant number of medium to large sized spaces were taken up. The availability of new commercial developments with larger floor plates at rentals much lower than other micro-markets attracted occupiers with larger space requirement.

The total supply of Grade A buildings in Whitefield was approximately 2.73 mn sq ft in 2009 as compared to just 0.74 mn sq ft in 2008. With the increase in the supply in Whitefield, the vacancy rate also stood as high as 15.1%. while the rental values On the other hand the supply in Electronic City halved in 2009 as the addition in 2009 was close to 0.28 mn sq ft as compared to addition of 0.59 mn sq ft in 2008. The vacancy rate increased from 21.1% to 24.1% on account of slower leasing activities due to lack of proper access roads and limited supply of new Grade A developments.

Rental & Capital ValuesThe rental values in Whitefield rose by approximately 15% from INR 26/sq ft/month in 1H 2009 to INR 30/sq ft/month in 2H 2009. The increase in rental values was on account of addition of new projects in PBD which are in proximity to the SBD, thus offering competitive space. The capital value also showed an upward movement as it increased from INR 2,400/sq ft in 2008 to INR 2,555/sq ft in 2009 (+6.45%).

The rental and the capital value in Electronic City remained stagnant at INR 23/sq ft/month and INR 2,300/sq ft respectively throughout 2008 and 2009.

Infrastructure DevelopmentThe ongoing construction of elevated highway from Silk Board junction to Electronic City was finally completed in January 2010 which dramatically reduced the travel time to Electronic City by reducing the traffic congestion on this stretch. Apart from this, no major infrastructure developments were witnessed in the PBD.

A total of 0.3 mn sq ft of fresh Grade A supply is lined for completion

in 2010 in CBD. The early signs of revival in the market coupled with

addition in fresh stock are expected to bring in further momentum

in the leasing activities.

iii) Outlooka) Central Business District (CBD)

In 2010, Whitefield area is likely to witness supply of approximately

6.62 mn sq ft while Electronic City is expected to add approximately

1.15 mn sq ft to Grade A buildings. Activities in Electronic City are

accepted to gain momentum from 1Q 2010, with the completion of

elevated highway and adequate supply of Grade A developments in

the micro-market.

b) Secondary Business District (SBD)The year 2010 is expected to have fresh Grade A supply of ~4.54 mn

sq ft with approximately 2.55 mn sq ft being on the eastern stretch

of Outer Ring Road. The eastern stretch of outer ring road is

expected to become the preferred location for commercial

occupiers on account of the availability of large land parcels

suitable for commercial development, its capacity to manage

corresponding residential requirement at affordable rates and the

construction of fly over which would significantly reduce traffic

congestion.

BANGALORE RETAIL MARKET

The year 2009 saw measured activities from the developers as the retailers preferred secondary high streets over the under construction malls. This resulted in developers delaying the completion of malls under construction which subsequently delayed the completion timelines of these projects.

The slow moving strategy adopted by retailers during 2009 led many mall developers to postpone their project completion in 2010. Hence the total supply of malls remained close to 1.11 mn sq ft in 2009 which denotes only 50% of the total expected supply for 2009. The total mall supply in 2008 was only 0.52 mn sq ft across all micro markets which helped developers command the lease terms on the back of high demand from retailers. Although 2009 did not witnessed major activities in the mall market, the high street market saw initial signs of revival with emergence of new secondary high streets across the city.

Less availability of the ready built space in malls and emergence of high streets has stabilized the rental values which have shown only a marginal increase.

i) Overview

Supply & Vacancy TrendThe Bangalore shopping centre witnessed fresh supply of approximately 0.41 mn sq ft and 0.35 mn sq ft in the secondary and the suburban micro-market respectively in 2009 as compared to supply of 0.15 mn sq ft and 0.37 mn sq ft in the primary and secondary micro-market respectively during 2008. The addition of fresh stock in 2009 was less as compared to the expected figure, since the developers delayed the launch of projects on account of implied effects of credit crunch and slowdown in the global market.

Retail Market SentimentThe retailers showed less interest in signing up spaces in under construction malls as their funds were blocked in the mall projects that were already delayed. The limited availability of retail space in operational malls and higher mall rentals as compared to most of the high streets increased the retailer's interest towards emerging secondary high streets. Retailers were encouraged to expand in these micro-markets as they could immediately start operations there and gain on first mover advantages like location preference, reasonable rentals and potential but untapped market. One the other hand, vacancy rates in the operational malls remained low to the tune of 1.5% because of the limited supply across micro-markets.

A drop of 5% and 1.69 % was observed in rental values in primary and secondary micro markets respectively over 2008-09. Willingness of developers of operational malls to lease the limited vacant spaces at a discounted price was the prime reason for this y-o-y decline.

OutlookThe Bangalore Mall Market is expected to witness completion of 3.59 mn sq ft in the secondary and the suburban micro-market, of which nearly 3.1 mn sq ft is expected in the secondary micro-markets of Bannerghatta road, outer ring road (eastern stretch) and Malleshwaram. Even though a significant larger supply is piling up in comparison to the previous year, retailers are not expected to cannibalize on their sales-per-foot in the medium to long term as this supply would be catering to different residential catchment scattered across the city.

The eastern stretch of outer ring road (Mahadevpura - Sarjapur ORR) also witnessed launch of two major hypermarkets totaling to approximately 0.09 mn sq ft in 4Q 2009. Availability of large land parcels suitable for mixed use development anddensely populated surrounding areas have made this micro-market a lucrative location for large retail formats.

Competition from the emerging high streets is expected to keep the mall rentals range bound and an increase in Mall rental values is not expected over the next two years.

b) High Street

Supply & Vacancy TrendOwing to the limited supply and high rental values in operational and under construction malls, high streets remained preferred business location for retailers.

High Street Market SentimentThere were signs of increased sentiment of retailers in the secondary high streets of DVG Road (Banashankhari), Kamanahalli Main road, New BEL road and Jayanagar (9th Block) , but business on primary high streets of Indiranagar 100 Ft Road and CMH Road temporarily slowed down on account of ongoing Metro construction.

OutlookNew emerging high streets are expected to retain retailer's interest on the account of favorable lease terms, readily available space and favorable residential catchment. . Demand for the retail space to the tune of 750 – 1,000 sq ft is expected to remain buoyant in high streets over a medium to longer term. Affordable rentals and thick residential catchment which have attracted the retailers are further expected to increase the momentum of activities in these emerging secondary high streets during 2010. The rental levels on the high streets are expected to remain range bound for next six months. Increased retailer activity is expected to continue on the primary high streets of Indiranagar 100 ft road and CMH road after the completion of Metro link in these micro markets.

BANGALORE RESIDENTIAL MARKET

Low lending rates coupled with ample supply across the micro markets has increased the demand for the residential condominium segment across secondary and peripheral markets of Bangalore. On account of low supply and high demand, premium apartments commanded high absorption rates in primary micro market of Bangalore.

Capital Values have not shown significant increase across all the micro markets, as was witnessed in early 2006-07.

i) Overview

Supply & Vacancy TrendAbsorption in primary micro market is not a major function of lending rates and primarily the demand in this micro-market is derived from the High Income Group (HIG) or elite class. Also the sale of apartments in this micro market is through exclusive invitation of the focused clientele by the developers.

Capital ValuesCapital values in primary micro market are in the range of INR 9,000 per sq ft – INR 11,000 per sq ft in the CBD. The price may vary depending on the location and neighborhood of the project. However due to the recent economic depression the rentals are also at an all time low in this market. Many developers have postponed the launch of their projects in these areas due to unavailability of funds and vacant stock of completed projects.

ii) Micro Market a) Primary Residential Market

Description

Supply & Vacancy TrendAmple supply, increased absorption in old projects and competitive pricing kept the capital values range bound. There has been less number of new projects launched because of the huge vacant stock in under construction projects.

b) Secondary Residential Market

c) Peripheral Residential Market

Supply & Vacancy TrendHuge stock under completion and slow absorption rate kept the capital values at bay. At present there are approximately 15,000 apartments under construction in peripheral micro markets of Bangalore.

Capital ValuesDevelopers are also considering launch of budget apartments in peripheral locations due to low land prices. The typical built up area of these apartments vary from 950 sq ft to 1,050 sq ft.

We expect the Capital values to show a downward momentum in shorter term till the demand supply balance is attained. No new projects are expected to launch in a short to medium term. With the completion of the Elevated Expressway on Hosur Road, the travel time has reduced dramatically to Electronic city and this may help increase the demand for residential properties in this micro market. The demand is also expected to rise in and around Bannergatta Road and Whitefield area as the developers have resumed the construction of malls which were put on hold due to lack of investor interest and funds.

Capital ValuesMicro market of RMV in North Bangalore has seen an increase of 10% in capital values over 2008, while the capital values in other locations of the city were stagnant.

Many developers are waiting to clear the vacant stock before they launch any new project and are aggressively marketing their projects and wooing customers with special offers and rates. The high vacancy in this market was due to fewer developments as the developers abstained from taking up any new commercial as well as retail projects. The construction of flyovers and metro in the secondary micro market thus causing chaotic traffic jams is another reason for high vacancy as the buyers are waiting for the work to get over or reach completion before they take possession of their dream homes.
