TCS in talks to lease out 3.5 lakh sq ft Thane space
With the year just started, the deal is set to be among the largest lease transactions in terms of size, expected to be completed during the year.
According to sources with knowledge of the development, TCS is currently negotiating a deal with Mumbai-based Neptune Developers for leasing out its entire building called Neptune Elements in the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) area of Thane. Though the rentals on this deal are still being ironed out between Neptune and TCS, sources say Thane is commanding around R50 per sq ft rate.
At R50 per sq ft, the deal would work out to be around R21 crore on an annual basis. This is said to be TCS’ third back office in the Mumbai region. The company already operated two such offices in Goregaon and Powai, western and central suburban areas, respectively.
The upcoming location is believed to house about 3,500 work stations of TCS. TCS did not respond to a mail from FE, saying the company was in a silent period ahead of its December quarter results announcement on Monday.
