How these figures are made
- They come from the active listings of shops, showrooms and offices in India on ShopsOnRent.com, priced in rupees, at the moment you open this page.
- They are asking rents set by owners, not the rents finally agreed, and they do not include GST, maintenance or deposits.
- Rents given per square foot are turned into a monthly rent using the listing's size. Rent per square foot uses only listings that give a size.
- "Typical" is the median (half the listings ask less, half more); "most ask" is the middle half, from the 25th to the 75th percentile.
- Listings are posted by owners and are not inspected, and a city with few listings can swing a lot. Use these figures as a starting point and compare with shops near the one you want.
