Awfis Space Solutions Ltd has reported its highest-ever annual performance, driven by robust demand for flexible workspaces and strong enterprise leasing momentum. The company posted consolidated operating revenue of ₹1,493 crore in FY26, marking a 24% year-on-year growth, with the coworking and allied services segment expanding sharply by 35%.

Strong Financial Performance Across Metrics

Awfis’ profitability metrics also saw significant improvement during the year. Operating EBITDA rose 37% year-on-year to ₹550 crore, with margins expanding to 36.8%, reflecting better scale efficiencies, a higher share of mature centres, and improved operating leverage.

Net profit (PAT) stood at ₹71 crore in FY26, registering a 66% year-on-year growth. The company also achieved a Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) of over 60%, positioning it among the most capital-efficient players in the listed flexible workspace segment.

On a quarterly basis, Q4 FY26 continued the growth trajectory. Revenue stood at ₹410 crore, up 21% year-on-year, while EBITDA rose 31% to ₹152 crore. Net profit more than doubled to ₹23 crore, reflecting a 107% year-on-year increase.

Balance Sheet Strength and Capital Efficiency

The company maintained a strong balance sheet, with a net cash position and a negative net debt-to-equity ratio of -0.20x. Its interest coverage ratio stood at 11x, indicating healthy financial stability.

Awfis also reported a revenue-to-gross fixed assets ratio of 1.5x, one of the best in the industry, underscoring efficient asset utilization.

Rapid Network Expansion Across India

Operationally, Awfis expanded its footprint significantly during FY26. The company now operates 266 centres with a total capacity of approximately 1.84 lakh seats across 18 cities.

During the year, it added nearly 30,000 seats across 41 new centres, all within Grade A and A+ commercial spaces located in high-demand micro-markets. This expansion strategy has helped the company strengthen its presence in key urban clusters and build strong network effects.

Enterprise and GCC Demand Driving Growth

A major driver of Awfis’ growth has been its increasing focus on enterprise clients. Large enterprises and multinational corporations (MNCs) now account for 64% of its client base.

The company has also seen strong traction from Global Capability Centres (GCCs), with over 100 such clients contributing approximately 23% of rental revenue. Notably, large-format deals continue to dominate, with clients occupying over 500 seats accounting for 37% of the portfolio.

Interestingly, even within smaller seat categories, enterprise demand remains strong, with nearly half of sub-100 seat clients being large corporations.

High Occupancy and Stable Revenue Visibility

Awfis reported a mature occupancy level of 84%, with an overall blended occupancy of 76%. The company’s average client tenure stands at 37 months, with a lock-in period of 26 months, ensuring stable and predictable cash flows.

Additionally, 48% of its clients operate across multiple centres, highlighting strong client retention and stickiness.

Premiumization Strategy Gains Momentum

The company is also accelerating its premiumization strategy. It currently operates 35 premium ‘Elite’ and ‘Gold’ centres and has introduced upgraded formats such as Gold 2.0 and Awfis 6.0.

Over 60% of its new supply has been secured through partnerships with institutional landlords, further strengthening its asset quality. Awfis has also achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first coworking brand in India to receive three simultaneous WELL certifications, reinforcing its focus on health-centric and sustainable workspaces.

Outlook

With rising demand for flexible workspaces, increasing enterprise adoption, and the expansion of GCCs in India, Awfis appears well-positioned to sustain its growth momentum. Its strong financial performance, scalable business model, and focus on premium assets are likely to support continued expansion in the evolving office real estate landscape.
