Instant delivers third phase of Bangalore office, now spanning 185,376 sq ft and set to reach 220,324 sq ft for 1,750 staff.
The Instant Group, the largest global marketplace for flexible workspace has helped a Multi-National Financial Services and Software as a Service Company to find and build out a bespoke permanent workspace for employees in Bangalore, India as part of a five-year Managed Office agreement.
The Managed Office product affords companies a unique way to procure and deliver space, on time and on budget, incorporating a tenant’s brand and office specifications. Globally, The Instant Group has delivered over five million square feet of Managed Office space for large multinational companies including Jaguar, Land Rover and GSK.
With the company’s headquarters located outside of India, they put their trust in The Instant Group, who worked closely with The Prestige Group, to deliver a fast and full end-to-end workplace in a geographically distant market. Instant assumed responsibility for all leasing, due diligence, design, fit out, and facilities management mobilization aspects, providing the client with a sense of assurance, security, and reliability.
ABOUT THE BANGALORE OFFICE
The latest Managed Office delivery marks the third of four project phases for this client’s Bangalore office, building on the successful handover of phase one in January 2024. This stage adds 75,214 sq ft to the existing office space, bringing Instant’s total delivered space for the client to 185,376 sq ft. Once complete, the office will span 220,324 sq ft, accommodating a daily workforce of around 1,750 employees.
The Bangalore office is among the largest in the APAC market, and has been purpose-built to attract, retain, and empower talent in an environment where competition for staff is at an all-time high. Designed to the client’s global standards, it prioritizes amenity and a value-led experience, with a clear focus on employee wellbeing and engagement. The result is a best-in-class workplace that puts people first and enables them to deliver their best work.
Located within Prestige Tech Pacific Business Park on the Outer Ring Road, the workspace spans five floors with key features including:
- A modern office environment accommodating close to 1,500 staff
- Two full-scale production kitchens serving fresh meals 16 hours a day
- Dining spaces with capacity for more than 500 employees
- State-of-the-art meeting rooms with 700 seats and the latest Neat VC technology

The office also features local arts and crafts as a nod to Bangalore heritage whilst illustrating a strong diversity, equity and inclusion focus exemplified by Aravani Art walls.
The Aravani Art Project is a transformative public art collective based in India, led by transgender and cisgender women. Founded in 2016 by Bangalore-based artist Poornima Sukumar, the initiative aims to empower the transgender community through art, storytelling, and reclaiming public spaces.
Furthermore, through a comprehensive focus on health and safety, the office has been delivered with over 500,000 incident free hours during the fit-out process.
