India is currently the fourth largest market in the world for LEED and the state of Karnataka was ranked second in the Top 10 States for LEED in India in 2019, which ranks Indian states in terms of cumulative gross square meters (gsm) of LEED-certified space. Up to May, Karnataka had 327 LEED projects, covering 1.2 billion gross sq ft (gsf) of space.
