Will the demand for DLF in Hyderabad return to normal after the pandemic?

The pandemic has thrown most working professionals completely off course. The rapid changes in our lifestyle have definitely changed the way we view things. From not being able to step out for either work or leisure to normalizing a new way of life that revolves around distanced living. At home, these problems were handled collectively as a family but at work, the problem singles out each employee. The pandemic prompted many office spaces across DLF Hyderabad to shut down or shift to ‘work from home. Since the duration of the pandemic is still an unknown element of our lives, many have long waited for an end to arrive soon.

Even when work was allowed to resume by the government, many working spaces across DLF Hyderabad were still shut. DLF IT SEZ Hyderabad implemented strict protocols to prevent the transmission of the virus. This led to many companies not being able to resume their operations as early as they had anticipated.

 

Demand for working spaces has diminished, work continues as is.

 

The new ways of the pandemic have made us all realize that physical working spaces have become redundant. Work has become flexible enough to be carried out from all corners of the world. Working from home has been shunned in the past as a concept, practice, and method of operation for companies. The present reality after compelling us to adopt this way of life has proved its effectiveness. Work from home not only has employees be more productive team members but also happier. They also save precious money and time that is mostly spent while commuting to and from work.

 

Hyderabad has been able to absorb an enormous amount of land for office spaces and commercial use. This led not only developers but companies as well to seek working spaces in Hyderabad. DLF Cybercity is a multi-block campus that is spread across 26 acres of developed land. The vast campus allows for the necessary safety protocols to be maintained and supports companies in taking care of their workforce.

 

The impact, however drastic, is predicted to change course in the coming months. This is owed to the resilient real estate market that Hyderabad has housed since its inception. Good weather, reasonable housing prices, and a relatively lower cost of living make it ideal for employers as well as their employees.

 

However stringent the restrictions are, the experience that DLF Hyderabad has accumulated over the years helps it maintain proper standards. This includes but is not limited to:

 

  1. Regular sanitation of the premises.
  2. Deep cleaning of offices and cubicles.
  3. Scanning and monitoring entry/exit.
  4. Thermal screening.
  5. Temperature monitoring.
  6. Reduced levels of occupancy across the campus.
  7. Sensitized security personnel.
  8. MERV 14 air filtration.
  9. Hand sanitizers at key access points.
  10. Social distancing at mess and food hall areas.

 

 

What will the post-pandemic situation look like?

 

The study suggests that getting rid of the virus completely is a rare outcome for our society. Most likely, the work dynamic will consist of working from home and the office. With capacity reduced in working spaces, a healthy and safe working environment can be ensured. Another approach is to divide the workforce into shifts and have them come to the office on selected days of the week.

 

It is also predicted that the demand for larger office spaces will only increase. A pre-pandemic 120 seater space can now accommodate only about 80-90 employees. This is due to the safety protocols that are mandated by the government. DLF IT SEZ Hyderabad is a preferable choice as it has more than sufficient space to accommodate even the largest of work forces. The superb quality of infrastructure and convenient location of Gachibowli make it an ideal option for companies.

 

A well-planned road system with large flyovers makes travel an easy and to some extent a hassle-free process.

 

The price of post-pandemic working spaces depends heavily on the demand that comes into the light for them. If the demand falls significantly (as is predicted), rates will also go down. The supply of such working spaces also lowers the price for each property. DLF in Hyderabad has a sound reputation among its investors as being a resolute investment option. Unshaken by the plunges of our real estate market and having withstood a global pandemic, DLF’s commitment to excellence is personified.

 

The fate of a post-pandemic working environment is dependent directly on the companies. It is they that decide whether the entirety of their workforce or a portion of it, is to work in the office. Other than ensuring safety protocols, there is very little that developers can do to maintain the pre-pandemic flow of business. If there is restructuring required, the entire system ought to be transformed and not just aspects of it. This extends to paperwork, lease agreements, tenure, pricing as well as property specs.
