Mumbai among top 10 costliest office markets
Mumbai is the 4th most expensive office market in the world. London's West End remains the world's most expensive office market, according to CB Richard Ellis Group, which tracks occupancy costs for prime office space in 176 cities around the globe.
"Mumbai CBD (central business district) regaining its 4th place in the most expensive office rents list from 7th place in December 2009 is a clear indication that the corporates have re-started to expand their operations and supply in this micro-market continues to remain limited, which has moved up the rentals," says Anshuman Magazine, chairman and managing director, CB Richard Ellis, South Asia.
