Where we work in Bangalore
Bangalore is not one office market but several, and each corridor has its own building type, landlord and tenant mix. These are the areas we work in most.
Outer Ring Road: Marathahalli to Sarjapur Road
The stretch through Bellandur, Kadubeesanahalli and Devarabeesanahalli holds large tech parks such as Embassy Tech Village, RMZ Ecospace and Prestige Tech Park. Occupiers are mostly global capability centres, product companies and IT services firms taking large floor plates, often a full floor or more. Buildings are typically Grade A, run by the developer's facility team with a detailed fit-out manual.
Whitefield and ITPL
International Tech Park Bangalore, the EPIP zone and Brookefield make up the oldest large IT cluster in the east of the city, and the Purple Line metro now reaches Whitefield. Stock ranges from tech park buildings of the late 1990s and 2000s to newer towers, so the condition of HVAC and electrical provisions varies from building to building.
Manyata, Hebbal and north Bangalore
Embassy Manyata Business Park near Hebbal is one of the largest office parks in the city, and newer developments continue along Bellary Road towards Kempegowda International Airport. Campus-style parks here usually have centralised services and strict contractor rules on access, permits and working hours.
MG Road, Residency Road and the CBD
The older central business district, where our studio is. Buildings are smaller and older on average, with floor plates that suit consulting, legal, banking and regional sales offices. Expect older electrical and HVAC provisions, limited service lifts and tight loading space on busy streets.
Koramangala, Indiranagar and HSR Layout
Home to much of the city's startup scene. Many offices are in independent commercial buildings or converted properties in mixed neighbourhoods, with smaller floors, split or VRF air conditioning, and residential neighbours who notice noise and late working.
Electronic City and Hosur Road
Large IT campuses in Phase 1 and Phase 2, plus mid-size office buildings along the elevated expressway, now also served by the Yellow Line metro. Floor plates are generous and rents are typically lower than on the Outer Ring Road, which suits large delivery and back-office teams.
Bangalore guides: office fit-out approvals in Bangalore (landlord manual, BESCOM and fire NOC) and a 5,000 sq ft office in Bangalore (layout, budget and what is included).
What shapes a fit-out in Bangalore
The same 10,000 sq ft brief can play out very differently in a Whitefield tech park and a Residency Road building. These are the local conditions we plan for before we price a Bangalore project.
Warm shell tech parks, bare older buildings
Most Grade A tech park floors are handed over as warm shell: a finished slab, chilled water or air handling provisions, a sprinkler grid and a fixed power allocation. The fit-out extends the building's systems rather than installing them from scratch. Older CBD and Koramangala buildings are more often bare and may need new air conditioning, an electrical panel upgrade or extra load sanctioned by BESCOM.
Landlord fit-out manuals and drawing review
Tech park facility teams usually review layout, ceiling, HVAC, electrical and fire drawings against their fit-out manual before work starts, and inspect again at close-out. Many ask for a refundable fit-out deposit, contractor insurance, labour lists and work permits. We plan this review as a fixed early step in the programme.
Fire safety
Changes to sprinklers, smoke detection and exits must stay consistent with the building's fire NOC from Karnataka State Fire and Emergency Services. In practice, sprinkler heads follow the new ceiling, and cabins or glass partitions must not block exit routes or detector coverage.
Traffic and deliveries
Heavy goods vehicles face daytime restrictions on many city roads, and Outer Ring Road traffic makes daytime deliveries slow. Gypsum board, glass and furniture are usually brought in at night or early morning, which needs the landlord's agreement on gate and lift timings.
SEZ buildings
Several large Bangalore parks include SEZ-notified buildings. Material entering an SEZ unit is typically recorded at the SEZ gate, and the unit's SEZ status affects the tax treatment of fit-out supplies, so procurement paperwork should be agreed with your finance team before ordering.
Climate and the monsoon
Bangalore's mild temperatures keep cooling loads lower than in north India. The bigger risk is rain: the south-west and north-east monsoons bring heavy showers from roughly June to November, so terrace and façade work is best done in the dry months and moisture-sensitive materials need covered storage.
Vendors and lead times
Bangalore has a deep base of furniture, glazing, joinery and MEP suppliers, so standard items arrive quickly. Custom work such as curved glass and stone cladding takes longer to fabricate and fix, as on our 28,000 sq ft Bangalore office.

Common questions about office interiors in Bangalore
Do you have a studio in Bangalore?
Yes. Our Bangalore studio is at AWFIS, Sabari Complex, 24 Field Marshal Cariappa Road, off Residency Road and close to MG Road. Design meetings, material reviews and coordination for Bangalore projects run from here, and a site team stays on the ground for the length of each project.
Which parts of Bangalore do you cover?
All the main office markets: the Outer Ring Road from Hebbal to Sarjapur Road, Whitefield and ITPL, Manyata and north Bangalore towards the airport, the MG Road and Residency Road CBD, Koramangala, Indiranagar and HSR Layout, and Electronic City. We work in tech parks, SEZ buildings, standalone commercial buildings and older central properties.
How long does an office fit-out take in Bangalore?
It depends on size, finish and the building. Allow time at the start for the landlord's drawing review, which tech parks treat as a fixed step. Our 28,000 sq ft Bangalore office with stone cladding and curved glass was quoted at 90 days and handed over in 105, with the extra time coming from client-side approvals. Every proposal includes a dated programme.
Can fit-out work happen during the day in a Bangalore tech park?
Quiet work such as ceilings, partitions, painting and furniture assembly usually can. Noisy or dusty work like core cutting, slab drilling and demolition is often restricted to nights and weekends in occupied buildings, and welding needs a hot-work permit. Each park sets its own rules in its fit-out manual, so we confirm them before fixing the programme.
What approvals do we need before work starts?
In most tech parks the landlord reviews layout, ceiling, HVAC, electrical and fire drawings against its fit-out manual and then issues a work permit. Fire system changes must stay consistent with the building's fire NOC. Older buildings may need extra power sanctioned by BESCOM, and SEZ buildings have their own procedures for materials. We prepare and track these submissions.
What does an office interior cost in Bangalore?
Our 2026 rate card for Bangalore runs from ₹2,000 per sq ft for a Basic finish to ₹5,000 per sq ft for High-end, GST extra, furniture included. The Bangalore cost per sq ft page has worked budgets and a calculator. A firm quote follows a site visit to your floor.
