What the Coverage Is About

Published on 25 January 2026 — a week before Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's Budget speech — Zee News' live blog brought together industry voices on pre-Budget expectations. Aditya Yamsanwar contributed a perspective that stands apart from most GCC commentary: rather than leading with demands, the quote starts with evidence — what the 2025 Budget's GCC framework has already achieved — before turning to what must follow.

The 2025 Union Budget's announcement of a national framework to promote GCC growth in emerging locations marked a clear strategic shift beyond metros, accelerating state-wise participation and reinforcing India's move from cost arbitrage to capability-led leadership. This policy alignment — around infrastructure readiness, talent mobility and ease of operations — has already translated into strong GCC expansion, making these centres the single largest driver of Grade-A office absorption across key cities.

Aditya B. Yamsanwar — Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in Zee News

From Cost Arbitrage to Capability-Led Leadership

The framing in this quote is analytically distinct from Aditya's Budget 2026 commentary in other publications. Where Livemint, Businessworld, and NDTV Profit focus on what Budget 2026 must do next, the Zee News quote makes the retrospective case first: the 2025 Budget's national GCC framework worked. State-wise participation accelerated. Cost-arbitrage positioning gave way to capability-led narratives. And Grade-A office absorption followed — because when global enterprises commit to a location for capability-led work rather than cost arbitrage, the quality bar for the workspace itself rises.

What 2025 Budget delivered

National framework for GCC growth in emerging locations
State-wise participation accelerated beyond Tier-1 clusters
India's shift from cost arbitrage to capability-led positioning
GCC centres becoming the single largest driver of Grade-A office absorption

What 2026 must consolidate

Infrastructure readiness in emerging GCC corridors
Talent mobility at non-metro scale
Ease of operations — planning, approvals, connectivity
Sustained Grade-A supply to match GCC demand

For TOA, this is not a theoretical observation. The firm's work across GCC campuses, industrial and commercial corridors, and high-performance corporate interiors is directly indexed to the quality demands that capability-led GCCs bring to their built environment. The shift from cost-centre to innovation hub is also a shift in what the building itself needs to do.

What the Episode Covers

The Property Show is Magic Bricks' flagship investment education series, designed to help Indian investors navigate the real estate market. This episode takes on one of the most discussed questions in Indian property investment: when does it make more sense to own real estate directly, and when does a REIT — with its liquidity, diversification, and passive income structure — offer the better risk-adjusted return?

Aditya Yamsanwar brings the architectural and built environment perspective to that conversation — speaking to the quality differentiation between asset classes, what Grade-A commercial real estate actually delivers in terms of long-term value retention, and how the design and specification of a building determines its yield sustainability over time. These are not abstract distinctions: the gap between a well-designed, ESG-compliant Grade-A office and generic commercial stock plays out directly in occupancy rates, rental escalation, and asset value over a 10-year hold period.

Real Estate vs REIT — The Built Environment View

India's REIT market has matured significantly since the first listing in 2019. Embassy Office Parks, Mindspace, and Brookfield have collectively demonstrated that institutional-grade commercial real estate — well-located, well-designed, professionally managed — can deliver consistent distributions and reasonable capital appreciation. The question for investors is whether the premium commanded by REITs for that quality and liquidity is justified, or whether direct ownership of the right asset in the right corridor can outperform.

For an architecture firm like TOA, the answer is embedded in the brief itself. The GCC campuses and high-performance workplaces TOA designs are precisely the category of asset that underpins REIT-grade commercial real estate — buildings where design quality, sustainability specification, and long-term workability are not optional extras but the conditions of occupier retention and rental income stability.

What the Coverage Is About

Published on 30 January 2026 — two days before Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's Budget speech — NDTV Profit's live blog brought together industry voices on what the budget needed to deliver. Aditya Yamsanwar spoke from the commercial real estate and urban development perspective, setting out both where Indian cities currently stand and what the next round of investment must prioritise.

Urban infrastructure investments and SEZ reforms have made Indian cities more predictable and investment-ready.

Aditya B. Yamsanwar — Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in NDTV Profit

On what Budget 2026 needs to do next, Yamsanwar called for deeper capital allocation toward transit-led corridors and integrated city planning — the two levers that translate investment-readiness at the macro level into genuine occupier-grade real estate supply at the district level.

Enabling Tier-2 markets to evolve into GCC and innovation hubs will define the next phase of commercial real estate growth. Execution at scale will be key to durable value creation.

Aditya B. Yamsanwar · NDTV Profit · 30 January 2026

Predictability, Transit, and the Commercial Real Estate Opportunity

The framing in the NDTV Profit feature is meaningfully distinct from earlier GCC-focused commentary: the emphasis here is on commercial real estate value creation as the outcome — not just GCC policy as the mechanism. Transit-led corridors and integrated city planning are not only enablers of GCC establishment; they are the conditions under which Grade-A commercial real estate stock holds and appreciates over time. Predictability — in infrastructure delivery, in planning approvals, in connectivity timelines — is the variable that institutional investors and global occupiers price into location decisions.

For TOA, this is the operating context across much of its commercial portfolio. The work spans GCC campuses designed for long-term occupancy, industrial and commercial parks in emerging corridors, and corporate interiors where the design brief is explicitly about performance, retention, and adaptability over a decade-plus horizon.

Original Article Budget FY27: GCCs Seek Concessional Tax Regime, Clarity On Secondments & Talent Sops — Businessworld →

What the Coverage Is About

The Businessworld article — published ahead of Union Budget 2026-27 — brings together GCC industry leaders, tax advisors, and policy experts to map out what India's Global Capability Centre ecosystem needs from the budget: a national policy framework, concessional tax regimes, clarity on secondment arrangements, and targeted infrastructure investment to take GCC growth beyond the established Tier-1 cities.

Article context — who else is quoted

The piece features Deloitte, Nasscom, ANSR, Incuspaze and Bhartiya Converge alongside TOA — with contributions covering tax incentives, transfer pricing reforms, GST clarity, and talent mobility. Aditya Yamsanwar provides the real estate and urban development lens, closing the article's section on long-term GCC investment signals.

To make non-metro talent truly GCC-ready, Budget 2026 must pivot from intent to execution by enabling urban-scale development — planned business districts, ESG-compliant Grade-A offices, mobility, housing and ecosystem anchors that create employment density.

Aditya B. Yamsanwar — Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in Businessworld

The framing Yamsanwar offers is precise and distinct from the tax and regulatory arguments made by others in the piece: the bottleneck for GCC dispersal beyond metros is not policy intent — it is the absence of the physical urban infrastructure that global enterprises require. ESG-compliant Grade-A office stock, planned business districts, housing density, and mobility connectivity are design and planning deliverables. Budget FY27's role is to fund and unblock them.

The Built Environment Dimension of India's GCC Story

India's GCC count has crossed 1,800, employing over two million professionals — more than half of all such centres worldwide. The next phase of that expansion depends on whether emerging cities can offer not just talent, but the quality of work environment that global enterprises expect. That is where architecture and workplace design enter the equation directly.

The shift from cost-centre to innovation hub — the transition the entire GCC industry is seeking to accelerate — requires a built environment that reflects that ambition. Bioclimatic Grade-A offices, well-connected business districts, and spaces designed for collaboration and long-term talent retention are not finishing touches. They are foundational to whether a city can compete for the next wave of GCC investment. TOA's work across GCC campuses, innovation headquarters, and high-performance corporate interiors is built around exactly this understanding.

What the Interview Covers

The interview spans five interconnected questions — from the macro picture of India's development trajectory to the specific innovations TOA is pursuing at the project level. Parish speaks across the full arc: the statistical case for real estate's centrality to Viksit Bharat, the design innovations reshaping modern offices, TOA's own investment in AI-driven architectural processes, and the challenges India must navigate to ensure that growth is both inclusive and sustainable.

As Team One Architects celebrates its 26th year, our focus is on merging design creativity with technological innovation and customer focus.

Parish Kapse — Co-Founder & Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in Construction Times

On Innovation, AI, and What Sets TOA Apart

On TOA's major contributions to innovative developments in real estate projects:

On the innovation front, we are actively investing in research to integrate AI into our architectural processes. From layout planning and 3D visualisations to cross-sections and elevation design, we are exploring how AI can improve speed, precision, and efficiency, without compromising design integrity.

Parish Kapse · Construction Times

On client relationships and repeat business as a marker of trust:

What truly sets us apart is that our diverse clientele has been univocal in applauding our innovative solutions. We are extremely proud to associate with almost half of our clientele on multiple projects, a testament to their trust in the value we bring to the table.

Parish Kapse · Construction Times

On sustainability and the long view on India's built environment:

Sustainability is the essence of all that we do at Team One Architects. Buildings are not merely spaces, they are engines for sustainable cities, whose construction contributes to leasing, economic growth and India's green development aspirations. We focus on smart technologies, low-carbon materials and climate-resilient designs that make places efficient, adaptable and ready for the future.

Parish Kapse · Construction Times

Real Estate's Role in Viksit Bharat 2047

The interview is set against a clear statistical backdrop: India's real estate sector is projected to reach $4.8 trillion by 2047, contributing 18% to a $26 trillion GDP — up from around 7% today. Parish frames this not just as an economic projection but as a design and planning challenge. The buildings that anchor that growth — Grade-A offices, sustainable commercial spaces, modern infrastructure — need to be conceived differently than the generation before them.

The conversation connects naturally to TOA's own practice across sectors — from industrial parks and GCC campuses to innovation headquarters — where the brief consistently asks for spaces that are not just functional today but adaptable across a 20-year horizon.

What the Coverage Is About

Livemint's Budget 2026 Expectations live blog — published ahead of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's 1 February speech — brought together industry voices on what India needed from its annual financial statement. Aditya Yamsanwar contributed a focused, built-environment perspective on the GCC ecosystem: that the gap between India's ambitions for its Global Capability Centres and the actual urban infrastructure needed to support them was the critical variable Budget 2026 needed to address.

In order to make non-metro talent truly GCC-ready, Budget 2026 must pivot from intent to execution.

Aditya B. Yamsanwar — Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in Livemint

Yamsanwar's contribution set out two specific levers for that execution, drawn directly from the built environment:

Two priorities as quoted in Livemint

Enable urban-scale development — planned business districts, ESG-compliant Grade-A offices, mobility, housing and ecosystem anchors that create employment density.
Integrate GCC objectives with Smart Cities investments in transit, utilities and digital infrastructure to convert today's momentum into structurally sustained, infrastructure-backed growth.

From GCC Aspiration to GCC Infrastructure

India's GCC story is well established at the level of narrative — the country hosts over 1,700 GCCs, employs more than 1.9 million professionals across them, and is the preferred destination for global enterprises building capability centres outside their home markets. What is less settled is whether the physical infrastructure of India's cities — particularly beyond Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Pune — can absorb the next wave of that expansion.

The distinction Yamsanwar draws is precise: talent availability in non-metro cities is no longer the constraint. What holds back GCC dispersal is the absence of the surrounding urban fabric — the Grade-A office stock, the transit connectivity, the housing supply, and the service-sector density that make a location genuinely workable for a global enterprise. These are design and planning problems as much as they are policy problems, and they are the problems TOA works on directly — from GCC campus design to industrial corridor planning to high-performance corporate interiors built to ESG compliance standards.

Team One Architects Director Aditya B.

Original Article Budget 2026: The GCC capital of the world needs more brains to bank its $100-billion dream — ET →

What the Coverage Is About

The Economic Times piece examines a defining challenge for India's GCC sector: as Global Capability Centres move up the value chain — from back-office support into AI-led, high-value functions — the skills gap is widening at precisely the moment when the industry is targeting $100 billion in annual revenue. The article draws on perspectives from GCC leaders, skilling specialists, and built environment experts to map what Budget 2026 needs to do to sustain this trajectory.

Aditya Yamsanwar's contribution focused on the infrastructural dimension of the GCC growth story — the physical environments, district frameworks, and policy mechanisms that determine whether India can scale its GCC capacity beyond the established metro hubs of Bengaluru and Hyderabad into Tier-II and Tier-III markets.

Budget 2026 ought to transcend general policy objectives and establish precise, implementation-focused incentives that effectively reduce costs, mitigate risks and accelerate the scaling process for GCCs.

Aditya B. Yamsanwar — Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in The Economic Times

Yamsanwar also outlined the specific directions that would make GCC expansion viable beyond the metros — calling for budget support for GCC-led campus development and entry-level talent pipelines, and for the creation of R&D and innovation-focused districts with specialised workspaces. Crucially, he stressed the need for a centrally aligned GCC framework with a strong on-ground execution mechanism — recognising that policy intent without delivery infrastructure has historically been the bottleneck.

The Built Environment's Role in India's GCC Ambition

India currently hosts 17% of the world's Global Capability Centres — a position built over two decades on the country's cost advantage in engineering and technology talent. The next phase of growth depends on something more complex: the ability to build the physical and institutional infrastructure that allows GCCs to operate at the quality level that global enterprises now require from their India operations.

Specialised workspaces — designed for high-density knowledge work, collaborative R&D, and the specific wellness and productivity demands of AI-era professional teams — are increasingly part of the GCC site-selection conversation. Firms considering Tier-II city expansion need to see that the built environment can match what is available in Bengaluru or Pune, not just in cost terms, but in design quality and operational performance. This is territory TOA has been working across, from GCC office campuses to innovation-led headquarters and integrated industrial districts.

What the Coverage Is About

CNBC-TV18's pre-budget feature brought together industry voices on the built environment, urban planning, and infrastructure priorities ahead of Union Budget 2026–27. Aditya Yamsanwar spoke to the structural shift underway in Indian cities — where SEZ reforms and infrastructure investment have moved urban centres into a new phase of absorption capacity, with non-traditional business districts beginning to compete meaningfully with established Grade-A corridors.

Recent urban infrastructure allocations and the transition of SEZs into more flexible, services-led ecosystems have pushed Indian cities into a more infrastructure-ready phase, supporting Grade-A office absorption and enabling non-traditional business districts to gain traction.

On the budget specifically, Yamsanwar noted that the opportunity lies in compounding what is already working — deepening capital investment in city-scale planning, prioritising transit-led business corridors, and enabling integrated development frameworks that allow Tier-2 markets to evolve into GCC-style innovation hubs.

SEZs, Grade-A Absorption, and the New Business District

India's Special Economic Zone framework, long associated with export-led manufacturing, has undergone a quiet but significant transformation. The shift toward services-led tenancy — driven by IT, GCC, and knowledge-economy occupiers — has repositioned many SEZ districts as de facto urban business hubs, with the infrastructure backbone to support Grade-A occupancy at scale.

For architects and workplace designers, this creates a genuinely different kind of brief. The projects emerging from these districts — GCC campuses, innovation headquarters, and high-performance corporate interiors — demand a level of strategic thinking about place, connectivity, and long-term workability that goes well beyond the building envelope itself.

What the Coverage Is About

In the immediate aftermath of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's Union Budget 2026 speech, Forbes India invited industry leaders across sectors to share their reactions and analysis. TOA Director Parish S. Kapse contributed his perspective on how the budget's infrastructure allocations stand to reshape India's urban landscape — particularly for emerging Tier-II and Tier-III cities.

Budget 2026 reinforces India's infrastructure-led urban growth story — with targeted capital investment in cities beyond the metros, we are seeing the foundation for the next generation of smart, sustainable built environments.

Parish S. Kapse — Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in Forbes India

India's Infrastructure-Led Urban Shift

Union Budget 2026 marked a decisive turn in how India is choosing to invest in its cities. With significant allocations directed toward urban infrastructure, transit corridors, and smart city frameworks, the budget signalled a long-term commitment to building beyond the established metros — bringing Tier-II and Tier-III cities into the mainstream of India's economic growth story.

For the architecture and built environment sector, this shift carries real consequence. The quality of infrastructure investment determines not just how cities look, but how they function — how efficiently people move, how sustainably buildings perform, and how effectively spaces support the organisations within them. These are questions TOA has been working through with clients across India for over two decades, from industrial parks to GCC campuses to headquarters in emerging districts.

What the Interview Covers

Drawing on over two decades in the architecture ecosystem, Varsha speaks candidly about a profession in transition. The conversation moves across several interconnected themes — from how her architectural training informs her approach to business development, to the structural shift in how architects, developers, and consultants now collaborate, to what clients are actually asking for in 2026.

During my interactions with clients these days, the conversation is rarely about offering services, but more about understanding and gauging their business goals and transforming them to spatial and architectural solutions.

Varsha Changedia — Associate Director, Team One Architects · As quoted in Realty+

On the evolution of the architect's role, Varsha describes a profession that has moved from linear, siloed project delivery to integrated, pre-planning-led collaboration — where engineering efficiency, sustainability, regulatory compliance, and commercial viability are considered together from the earliest stages, rather than sequentially.

On Sustainability, Technology, and What Clients Now Expect

On how sustainability has shifted from differentiator to deciding factor:

Sustainability is essentially becoming a deciding factor rather than a differentiator in many projects. There has been a tectonic shift on how clientele nowadays is overlooking symbolic green features and focusing on functional and tangible inclusions such as energy efficiency, regulatory compliance, and long-term operational savings.

Varsha Changedia · Realty+

On digital tools reshaping how firms win and deliver projects:

Digital modelling tools such as BIM allow teams to simulate designs, identify conflicts timely, and visualise outcomes for clients, which optimises decision-making and accelerates approvals. Together, these technologies enable architecture firms to operate with greater transparency, collaboration, and predictability.

Varsha Changedia · Realty+

On the capabilities young architects need to build beyond design:

The professionals who succeed in the business side are those who merge creative thinking with strategic, operations, and build effective stakeholder relationships. Financial literacy, negotiation, and data-driven thinking are as important as design fluency.

Varsha Changedia · Realty+

The Decade Ahead — Urbanisation, AI, and Viksit Bharat 2047

Varsha's forward view identifies three structural shifts — rapid urbanisation, digital transformation, and bioclimatic development — as the forces that will define India's architecture and real estate landscape over the next decade. India's urban population and organised real estate supply are expected to grow exponentially, driving demand for smarter, denser, multi-use developments across cities.

Framing it against the Viksit Bharat 2047 vision, she notes that the built environment has a direct role to play — infrastructure and buildings that are resilient, low-carbon, and digitally connected. For firms like TOA, this means sustained investment in sustainable design capabilities, technology integration, and the multidisciplinary collaboration that complex urban projects demand — from industrial corridors to GCC campuses.
