Investment in Boutique Offices in Thane
May 2025
Listen to this Article
Traditionally, investments are in bullion (silver, gold), paper investments (equities, bonds, mutual funds etc) and real estate. Largely, when one mentions investment in property, it is residential that comes to mind. But post Covid, a new asset class of property, the ‘boutique office’, has been the booming segment.
What is a boutique office?
A boutique office is a type of office space that offers premium amenities, modern infrastructure, and a unique, high-end environment. Boutique offices are typically smaller in size compared to traditional office buildings and are designed to cater to the specific needs of businesses and professionals who value exclusivity, luxury, and personalized services.
Thane has emerged as a prime location for boutique office investments, driven by its strategic location, growing demand for premium office spaces, and favorable business environment. With technology touching all walks of life, a boutique office is a window to the global marketplace. As requirements grow, startups and professionals largely contribute to demand. Small Investors have realized that the residential yields are around 3 per cent, while commercial real estate–boutique offices included-provides 6 per cent returns, compounded. Across Thane, we have seen the success of such projects in Wagle Estate, Hiranandani Estate, Kolshet, Manpada and soon, in locations like Shil.
Given the changes in the tax structure, especially capital gains on real estate, it would seem obvious that boutique offices are the new sunrise investment sector. Even as long lease contracts and young entrepreneurs make this segment more lucrative, most of these boutique offices also make ‘walk to work’ a reality.
