    “So this design and build project comes under the bespoke model. And so the landlord deal was done by them. But the client really liked our platform and the way we have designed and managed the entire enterprise. So they signed up with us in the bespoke model... we have very healthy margins, which are actually in line with EBITDA margins.”

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    Strong Financial Performance in Q2 FY26

    IndiQube reported a robust Q2 FY26 with revenue reaching INR354 crores, marking a 38% year-on-year growth. EBITDA surged by 74% YoY to INR75 crores, leading to an improved PAT margin of 8% compared to 3% in the prior year. Operating cash flow more than doubled to INR151 crores, significantly exceeding EBITDA, highlighting operational efficiency and healthy profitability.

    02

    Expanding Portfolio and Robust Occupancy

    The company's total signed portfolio stands at 9.14 million square feet across 125 centers and 16 cities, with 5.8 million square feet currently rent-yielding. Management expects the entire 9.14 million square feet to become rent-paying within 18 to 24 months, projecting a rent-paying area of 7.6-7.67 million square feet by March '26. Occupancy levels remained strong at 87% in Q2 FY26, up from 81% in Q1 FY26, with a low monthly churn of 0.01%, reflecting strong client retention.

    03

    Value-Added Services (VAS) as a Key Growth Driver

    Value-added services (VAS) contributed 13% to total revenue in Q2 FY26, an increase from 11% in the previous year, reflecting strong client adoption and engagement. IndiQube plans to expand its B2B and B2C service spectrum to include facilities, F&B, IT, mobility, and solar services, targeting a VAS contribution of at least 15% in the next financial year. This strategy aims to integrate VAS further into the overall workspace experience and enhance revenue quality.

    04

    Strategic Geographic Expansion and Supply Sourcing

    IndiQube continues its 'follow the talent' strategy, expanding in Tier 1 cities like Mumbai (from 85,000 to 140,000 sq ft) and Tier 2 cities, having added Indore and planning 3-4 more city additions in H2. The company's supply sourcing strategy for future growth includes build-to-suit properties (15-20% cheaper), acquiring and renovating older 'brownfield' assets (e.g., Bangalore MG Road at INR130-140/sq ft vs INR300/sq ft for new), and reactive client-driven acquisitions.

    05

    Innovation and Sustainability Initiatives

    The company introduced AI routing for transport management and a cafeteria crowd meter module to enhance operational efficiency and employee experience. IndiQube is also expanding its solar energy capabilities, building on its existing 20-megawatt solar farm in Yadgir and 22 rooftop installations, with plans to scale the farm to 70 megawatts. These initiatives reinforce its ESG credentials and contribute to power bill savings, impacting margins positively.

    06

    Competitive Landscape and Moats

    IndiQube highlights its competitive advantages, including its large operator status, pan-India presence, and strong referenceability network, with 40% of clients occupying multiple centers. The company notes that 65% of its total occupancy comes from clients with over 300 seats, reflecting a focus on large enterprise clients, comprising 40% GCCs and 60% Indian enterprises. Management believes the market will gravitate towards a few large players due to network effects and service quality.

    07

    Capital Expenditure and Free Cash Flow Outlook

    Capex for H1 FY26 stood at INR179 crores, with an estimated full-year FY26 capex of INR350-360 crores, and a similar range expected for FY27. This capex includes advances for future projects and renovation. Management anticipates the company to be free cash flow positive or slightly positive in FY27, driven by improving operating cash flows and the gradual conversion of signed AUM into rent-yielding assets.
