Indiqube was incorporated in 2015, much the same way any other company is - with an idea.
We, at Indiqube, create the right business environment for emerging companies to thrive by providing space to grow with key growth drivers like scalability and flexibility. In real sense, we truly are their growth partners who help them to seamlessly expand and grow in the same location without worrying about other hassles of searching and shifting to a new space. We go beyond just space and provide opportunities for businesses to focus on their goals.
We help companies invest more in their business by reducing the CAPEX (capital expenditure) and use it for operations/growth. We help companies focus and invest in things that matter to their business. Our partnered spaces like training room, conference room and boardroom are based on pay-per-use model, which helps companies use the same space to allocate it for employees.
Our ecosystem of growth enables companies to leverage the advantage of Economies of Scale (the cost of resources and usage on infrastructure is on shared basis enabling reduction of costs). In short, the companies only have to bring their systems/ laptops and start working without worrying about the maintenance and other technical glitches.
After reaching the revenue level of INR. 10,592.86 million in the FY 2024-25, the management of the company is looking forward to increasing the revenue at a growth rate of minimum 20% YOY basis for next couple of years. The company is looking forward to managing the space of 9.0+ mn SFT by 2025-26 as demand for the space has been looking on a moderate level by covering 1.29 million square feet, 1.24 million square feet and 0.54 million square feet through new centers in Fiscal 2026, 2027 and 2028, respectively. We propose to utilize an estimated amount of ?1,944.03 million during Fiscal 2026, ? 1,868.68 million during Fiscal 2027 and ? 813.78 million during Fiscal 2028 from the IPO Proceeds towards establishment of such new centers.
The company has added few buildings in Tier-ll and Tier III cities such as, Calicut and Vijayawada
Company's current occupancy is at a healthy level of more than ~80%. Considering the increase in demand from clients in non Indiqube properties, the company is exploring multiple combinations in following area of operations:
