IBM India Private Limited has strengthened its presence in Bengaluru by signing a fresh 10-year lease for 2.83 lakh sq ft of office space, with the total rental outlay estimated at ₹343 crore, according to documents accessed by Propstack.
The company has leased space across the ground and first to third floors of Bagmane Solarium City – Radon in Bengaluru. The lease commenced on February 5, 2026, the documents showed.
Akruthi Infra-Build Developers Private Limited owns the property. IBM will pay a monthly rent of ₹2.49 crore, at a rate of ₹88 per sq ft, with a 15% escalation every three years. The company has paid a security deposit of ₹14.96 crore, the documents showed.
In addition to the rent, IBM will pay fit-out rent of ₹2.98 crore per month for five years, until March 2031. The total fit-out rent over this period will amount to approximately ₹179 crore, according to the documents.

IBM could not be reached for comment.
Raja Seetharaman, co-founder of Propstack, said the transaction underscores the continued appetite among large technology companies for high-grade, scalable institutional office spaces in Bengaluru.
“A long-term commitment of this scale, coupled with developer-backed fitted infrastructure, highlights two key trends: occupiers are prioritising Grade-A assets, and Bengaluru remains the indispensable anchor for global tech R&D and core operations,” he said.
A recent report by Colliers India showed that office leasing increased 7% quarter-on-quarter from 17.4 msf in the previous quarter, as Bengaluru continued to lead Indian office demand. Leasing in the city stood at 5.2 msf in Q3, up 11% year-on-year.
