Retail leasing in the region touched 0.5 million sq ft in Q3 2025, up 70% quarter-on-quarter and 88% year-on-year, according to data from Cushman &amp; Wakefield. Of the 179,000 sq ft leased in malls, about 29,000 sq ft was fresh absorption, while the rest was driven by churn and renewals.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Gurugram continued to lead activity, accounting for 68% of leasing in the quarter, followed by Noida (20%) and Delhi (12%). Consultants and developers say the trend reflects a structural shift in how organised retail is evolving in the region.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Robin Mangla, President, M3M India, said, \u201cThis trend signals a long-term transformation in the retail ecosystem, where the focus will be on creating vibrant, community-centric hubs that drive footfall, enhance customer engagement, and unlock sustainable growth for investors and developers alike. At M3M, we view this as a pivotal moment to shape the future of retail, creating experiential destinations that blend innovation, convenience, and sustainability.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Food and beverage continued to be the strongest demand driver, accounting for 40% of leasing during the quarter, followed by wellness and entertainment at 12% each. The F&amp;B segment saw 1.7x growth from a year earlier. \u201cConsumers are increasingly seeking unique dining experiences and in response, mall operators are allocating more space to F&amp;B segments,&#8221; the report noted, adding that the shift reflects a move toward \u201cdestinations that encourage community interaction and socializing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Main streets made up 58% of F&amp;B leasing in the quarter, with malls accounting for the remaining 42%.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Gaurav Bansal, AVP and Leasing Head at Trehan Iris, said, \u201cThis growth showcases the city\u2019s robust infrastructure, strategic connectivity, and its emergence as a preferred destination for global and domestic brands. For developers, this momentum translates into greater opportunities to create integrated spaces that blend retail, entertainment, and lifestyle.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">Despite strong demand, supply constraints remain a challenge. Vacancy in superior malls remained exceptionally tight at around 3%, compared with nearly 19% in non-Grade A centres. Approximately 0.5 million sq ft of new Grade A mall space is expected to become operational in Delhi by year-end.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Leasing momentum during the quarter was particularly strong in Gurugram\u2019s Sectors 52, 65 and 70. Vijay Harsh Jha, Founder and CEO, VS Realtors, said the city remains one of the most aspirational destinations in India. \u201cThe growth in offices has created a positive ripple effect for malls and housing in the region. The malls in the city will continue to attract shoppers from far and wide and with strong infrastructure connectivity, the drivers for growth are real,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Mohammad Haris\" title=\"Mohammad Haris\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-07-08-at-16.46.30-2025-07-4288ce65f2e878c717819ce8b60fc7c8.jpeg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/mohammad-haris-21410.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Mohammad Haris<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Haris is Deputy News Editor (Business) at news18.com.
