Chennai

India's automotive and IT gateway, 250+ GCC campuses on the OMR corridor.

Chennai is Tamil Nadu's capital and India's fourth-largest city, a market defined by extraordinary sectoral range. The city is simultaneously a century-old manufacturing powerhouse (home to India's largest auto cluster), one of India's fastest-growing IT & GCC destinations, and a BFSI hub anchored by some of the country's most prestigious professional services addresses. With over 250 GCC campuses (≈15% of India's total), 5 million sq ft of gross leasing in H1 2025 alone, and a commercial stock set to cross 100 million sq ft by 2026, Chennai's office market is structural, not cyclical.
