Leasing a typical workplace in a metropolitan region is expensive for organization of any size. Startup culture has gradually gained traction mainly in Tier 2 and 3 cities as users only pay for what they use and rent; there are no hassles or outlays for maintenance and repair, which are common in traditional workplaces. Coworking spaces offer a range of amenities, including high-speed internet, meeting rooms, printing, and scanning facilities. India has the 3rd largest startup ecosystem in the world with more than 80,000 recognized startups in 2022 which are further estimated to grow at a double digit CAGR. Such factors are likely to augment the co-working spaces market in India in coming years.
