Surge in GCCs and demand for sustainable spaces drives Hyderabad’s PropTech and real estate growth.

The rapid emergence of Hyderabad as India's leading Global Capability Centre (GCC) hub is bringing about a transformative impact on the PropTech and commercial real estate landscape of the city. The city has surpassed long-time competitor Bengaluru and positioned itself as a preferred global base for technology, R&D, and innovation-led operations with nearly 40 per cent of all new GCCs established in India over the past three years choosing Hyderabad.

This has led to an unprecedented surge in demand for Grade-A office spaces, increasing absorption by over 50 per cent year-on-year. Key commercial areas such as HITEC City, Financial District, Kokapet, and emerging corridors along the Outer Ring Road are seeing large-scale development. Backed by government plans to add approximately 200 million sq. ft of commercial space by 2030, Hyderabad is preparing to support a significantly larger global corporate presence.

The nature of development is changing too. GCC-driven workforces now increasingly favor sustainable, wellness-oriented, and biophilic environments over traditional office settings. As Stonecraft Group's Founder and Managing Director, Kirthi Chilukuri, underlined, Hyderabad now competes for innovation mandates from around the world, which demands workspaces that inspire creativity, well-being, and community. This trend inevitably spills over into residential preferences, with employees demanding integrated, community-oriented living spaces to support modern hybrid lifestyles.

In this transformation, Hyderabad is emerging as the national hotspot for PropTech growth. The digitally savvy workforce and evolving home-buying behavior in the city are accelerating the pace of adoption of AI-enabled property discovery, digital brokerage models, fractional ownership platforms, and technology-driven agent ecosystems.

According to Sam Chopra, President & CEO of eXp Realty India, Hyderabad represents the future of Indian real estate: transparent, technology-led, experience-focused, and globally aligned. Strong governance, infrastructure-led expansion, rising incomes, and growing investor maturity continue to attract multinational firms to Hyderabad, positioning it well to shape the next decade of India's PropTech and commercial real estate evolution.
