Ahmedabad, July 27, 2026: According to Knight Frank India, leasing activity in the 50,000–100,000 sq ft office space category in Ahmedabad witnessed significant growth during H1 2026, with transaction volumes increasing 121% YoY to 0.27 million square feet (mn sq ft) from 0.12 mn sq ft in H1 2025. Moreover, the share of mid-sized office transactions rose sharply from 15% to 33%, indicating that one-third of the total office space leased in Ahmedabad during H1 2026 comprised transactions in the 50,000–100,000 sq ft category, compared with 15% in the corresponding period last year. This trend points to a growing preference among occupiers for scalable office formats while maintaining operational flexibility.

Ahmedabad’s office leasing profile shifted entirely towards sub-100,000 sq ft transactions in H1 2026. Small office transactions (below 50,000 sq ft) accounted for 67% of total leasing, while mid-sized offices (50,000–100,000 sq ft) contributed the remaining 33%, with no large office transactions recorded during the period.
