• The lease is for a five-year term at a monthly rent of about INR 61.53 lakh, as per transaction documents.

Airbnb has expanded its presence in India’s commercial office market by leasing 46,437 sq ft of workspace in DLF Cyber City, Gurugram, for its Global Capability Centre (GCC), according to transaction documents accessed through real estate data platforms.
The lease has been signed for a five-year tenure and is located in DLF Cyber City, one of Gurugram’s key Grade-A office micro-markets. The transaction places Airbnb within a major corporate hub that houses several multinational companies and technology-driven operations.
As per the lease terms, the company will pay a monthly rent of approximately INR 61.53 lakh for the premises. The agreement also includes standard escalation clauses and associated charges applicable over the lease period, reflecting prevailing commercial leasing structures in premium office assets.
The office space has been taken on the 21st floor of Tower A in Building No. 5 within the Cyber City development. The asset is part of a large-scale institutional office complex developed by established real estate players in the Delhi-NCR commercial corridor.
The lease commenced on October 1, 2025, according to the documents, and forms part of Airbnb’s broader expansion of its Global Capability Centre operations in India. GCCs have increasingly become a key driver of office demand, particularly in established technology and services hubs such as Gurugram, Bengaluru and Hyderabad.
The transaction also includes a security deposit of INR 5.54 crore, in line with standard commercial leasing requirements for Grade-A office assets. The lease structure reflects long-term occupancy planning typically adopted by multinational occupiers setting up or expanding offshore capability centres in India.
In addition to core office space, the agreement covers parking facilities, with specified monthly charges for designated car parking slots, consistent with institutional leasing arrangements in high-density commercial districts.
Industry observers note that GCC-led leasing continues to form a significant share of office absorption in India, with companies increasingly consolidating operations in large, integrated workspaces. Gurugram remains one of the leading destinations for such demand due to its infrastructure, connectivity and established corporate ecosystem.
The deal adds to a growing pipeline of leasing activity in the NCR office market, where multinational firms are continuing to secure large-format spaces to support technology, operations and customer service functions.
Real estate stakeholders indicate that Grade-A office absorption in key markets remains supported by sustained demand from global occupiers, particularly in the GCC and technology segments, which continue to prioritise long-term leases in institutional-grade developments.
