Each listing quotes rent on its own area (carpet, built-up or super built-up), so treat a row as a guide; see carpet, built-up and super built-up. Maintenance and GST come on top: the move-in cost calculator adds them up.

Grade A asking rents, Q3 2026

Cushman & Wakefield's Q3 2026 report gives stock-weighted asking rents for Grade A offices, per sq ft per month:

What deals close at

Knight Frank's H1 2026 report gives the ranges deals actually closed at:

AreaTransacted rentIn a year
CBD (incl. Anna Salai, T Nagar)₹70–95+1%
SBD (Guindy, Mount Poonamallee Road, Porur)₹75–100+4%
SBD OMR (Perungudi, Taramani)₹80–125+8%
OMR beyond the toll, GST Road₹58–75+3%

The two reports measure different things (asking against transacted) and draw area lines differently, so quote the source with the figure. Neither publishes Grade B rents, which are lower; SNE can tell you what a particular building goes for.

Questions

Why do the reports disagree?

One gives asking rents, the other the rents deals closed at, and they group areas differently.

Are these per carpet square foot?

Office rents are normally quoted on the chargeable (super built-up) area; the reports don't always say. See the carpet area guide.

What about Grade B offices?

The big firms don't publish Grade B rents. They're below these figures; ask SNE for a particular building.

Questions about a space?

SNE goes through the terms with you, clause by clause.
