“Large teams have a very specific set of workplace requirements – they need space that is operationally seamless, consistent across every touchpoint, and built to scale as the organisation grows. That is precisely what our managed campus model is designed to deliver,” Neetish Sarda, founder and managing director, Smartworks.

This engagement is consistent with Smartworks’ positioning in the large-format enterprise segment, he said.

Clients with 300 or more seats account for around 69% of the company’s rental revenue, with an average tenure of around 47 months for this cohort – reflecting the depth and durability of enterprise relationships on the platform. Around 90% of the company’s revenue comes from enterprise clients, reflecting it as the platform of choice for large organisations seeking managed, large-format workspace solutions, the company said.

As of March 31, 2026, Smartworks has a total footprint of around 16.1 million sq. ft., across 66 centres in 15 cities in India and Singapore.



The company partners with developers to transform large bare-shell properties into fully managed, enterprise grade campuses. Smartworks primarily serves mid-to-large enterprises and works with 770+ clients, including multinational corporations, Global Capability Centres and fast-growing technology companies.

The company also offers SmartVantage, a GCC-focused platform designed to support global organisations entering or expanding in India through scalable campuses and a curated ecosystem of partners, the company said.

During the 2025-26 fiscal, posted a net profit of 10.52 crore as against a net loss of 63.17 crore in the preceding financial year.
