India’s total penetration of the flex market is estimated to be around 6.5%, higher than the APAC region, which stands at 2 to 3%. In 2024, the flex market is estimated to grow around 60% to about INR 14,000 cr, as per a study done by Upflex. The co-working industry is not just growing; it’s booming. With a 43% increase in transactions recorded in the first quarter of this year compared to last year, the demand for flexible workspace solutions is at an all-time high. This surge in demand underscores the value proposition offered by co-working spaces, which provide cost-effective and flexible workspace solutions for companies of all sizes.
Pune, known for its dynamic business landscape, has emerged as a frontrunner. According to recent data from Knight Frank India, the city leads in flex space transactions, with 1.2 lakh square feet transacted in the first quarter of this year alone. This surge in demand reflects the growing preference for co-working spaces among companies and independent professionals.
Speaking about this, Mohit Palhade, Founder and CEO of THE BOARDROOM co-working, said, “Pune is a strategic market for us, given its prominence in the office space cooperation arena. Our entry into Pune marks a significant leap forward for THE BOARDROOM, and we are excited to cater to the diverse needs of businesses in this dynamic city. This expansion underscores our commitment to providing innovative workspace solutions that drive success and collaboration.”
Further, Amit C Kamerkar, co-founder and CFO of THE BOARDROOM co-working, said, “Expanding to markets like Hyderabad, Bangalore, and Pune is part of our growth strategy to meet the evolving demands of the modern workforce.
