Tesla leases retail space in Gurgaon for its second showroom in India

Tesla India Motor & Energy, the Indian entity of the US-based autonomous electric carmaker, has leased retail space in Gurgaon for its second showroom in India at a monthly rent of Rs 40.17 lakh. Rents will escalate by 4.75 per cent per annum. According to property registration details provided by CRE Matrix, a real estate data analytics firm, the US-based firm has leased the space for nine years. The space is located on the ground floor of Orchid Business Park at Sohna Road and has a chargeable area of 33,475 square feet. This means that Tesla will be paying a rent of Rs 120 per square foot per month. The total super built-up area of the space is 50,914 square feet. Tesla will be using the space as a service centre, delivery centre, and retail store. It has paid a security deposit of Rs 2.41 crore. The space has a lock-in period covering the first three years of the lease tenure. Earlier, in March, the company leased a showroom space in Mumbai's Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), India's costliest commercial hub, for a starting monthly rent of Rs 35.26 lakh — or Rs 888 per square foot per month — for five years. The company opened its Mumbai showroom on 15 July while introducing the Model Y in India, with prices starting from Rs 60 lakh. In June, Tesla leased a 24,565-square-foot warehousing facility in Mumbai's Kurla West for five years as a vehicle service centre/garage (without activities of bodybuilding and spray painting). The company leased the facility at a starting monthly rent of over Rs 37.53 lakh (Rs 153 per square foot per month). Tesla's registered office is at Tablespace, Panchshil Business Park, in Pune. It has also leased a co-working office space near BKC in Mumbai.
