Two-Thirds of India's Grade-A Office Stock Achieves Green Certification

According to a recent report by Colliers, more than two-thirds of Grade-A office spaces in India are now green certified. This development reflects a growing commitment to sustainability within the commercial real estate sector.

Green certification for office spaces is indicative of adherence to environmental standards aimed at reducing carbon footprints and enhancing energy efficiency. This trend aligns with global and national efforts to promote sustainable building practices and mitigate the impacts of climate change.

The report highlights that the increase in green-certified office spaces is a result of rising awareness among businesses and developers about the benefits of environmentally friendly buildings. Green certified offices not only contribute to energy savings but also offer healthier work environments and can command higher rental values.

The shift towards green certifications is driven by both regulatory frameworks and corporate sustainability goals. Many companies are prioritising green buildings as part of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies and sustainability agendas.

With the growing focus on sustainability, the trend of green certification is expected to continue, contributing to the broader goals of reducing environmental impacts and fostering sustainable development in the real estate sector.
