Frequently Asked Questions

UrbanAxis provides end-to-end commercial real estate advisory. We understand your requirements, shortlist verified properties, arrange site visits, negotiate lease terms, and support you through documentation and move-in.

We currently operate in Delhi NCR (Gurugram, Noida, Delhi), Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, and Chennai. We are rapidly expanding to other tier-1 and tier-2 cities across India.

Our advisory service is typically free for tenants. We earn a standard fee from property owners upon successful lease closure. There are no hidden charges for businesses using our platform.

We offer managed offices, enterprise floors, startup suites, coworking team desks, and built-to-suit options. Our inventory ranges from 500 sq. ft. private cabins to full 50,000 sq. ft. enterprise campuses.

For managed offices, the process from enquiry to move-in can be as fast as 7–14 days. For custom enterprise leases, the timeline is typically 30–90 days depending on fit-out requirements and negotiations.

Yes, through our managed office network, virtual office packages including business address, GST registration address, and mail handling services are available across all major cities.

Typical documents include company registration certificate, GST certificate, PAN card, identity proof of authorized signatories, and bank statements. Our team guides you through the full documentation process.

Absolutely. We arrange in-person and virtual site visits for all shortlisted properties. You are under no obligation until you sign a letter of intent or lease agreement.

A managed office is a fully furnished, serviced workspace with IT infrastructure, reception staff, meeting rooms, and utility management included in one monthly fee. A traditional lease is a bare-shell or semi-furnished space where the tenant handles all fit-out, operations, and utilities independently. Managed offices are faster to move into and require lower upfront capital, but typically cost 15–30% more per sq ft than traditional leases at scale.

Yes. We provide lease renewal advisory for existing tenants — evaluating your current market rate against benchmarks, recommending negotiation strategies, and representing you in discussions with your landlord. Many clients save 10–20% on renewal terms with our support.

A lock-in period is a minimum committed term in a lease during which the tenant cannot exit without financial penalties. It typically ranges from 11 months to 3 years in India. For managed offices and startup suites, we often negotiate zero or short lock-ins. For enterprise leases, lock-ins of 2–3 years are standard but come with significant rent concessions and fit-out allowances.

Yes. UrbanAxis offers post-move-in support including coordination with facility management teams, utilities setup, vendor introductions, and liaison with the property owner. We are available as a point of contact for any operational issues throughout your lease tenure.

All properties in our curated inventory are pre-screened for occupancy certificates, RERA registration, clear land title, and building compliance. Our legal advisory partners conduct due diligence on all Grade-A commercial buildings before they enter our listings. We strongly advise against transacting on unlisted or unverified properties.

Commercial security deposits in India typically range from 3 to 12 months of rent, depending on the type of property and landlord. Managed offices typically require 2–3 months deposit, while traditional Grade-A commercial leases may require 6–12 months. Our advisors negotiate this down wherever possible, and can connect you with lease deposit financing options if needed.

Yes. We specialize in India market entry office leasing for foreign companies. Our services include entity registration guidance (LO/BO/Project Office or subsidiary), city selection advisory, lease structuring for international tenants, and full documentation support. We have assisted 50+ international organizations set up their India operations across Bengaluru, Mumbai, Gurugram, and Hyderabad.

A fit-out allowance (also called a tenant improvement allowance) is money provided by the landlord to cover the cost of customizing the office space for the tenant's use. It typically ranges from ₹100–500/sq ft in Grade-A buildings. In competitive markets or for larger spaces, our advisors regularly negotiate fit-out allowances of ₹200–800/sq ft, which can significantly reduce the tenant's upfront capital requirement.

Yes. We are actively expanding our inventory in tier-2 cities. Currently we have curated listings in Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Coimbatore, Kochi, Indore, Lucknow, and Bhopal.
