The second highest jump in rentals for main streets came in Delhi and the National Capital Region at 31 per cent, while Mumbai followed with a 25 per cent hike. Connaught Place in Delhi enjoyed demand from the likes of Samsung and Japanese retailer Uniqlo, who have opened flagship stores there.

Following the national, financial and IT capitals, Hyderabad, Chennai and Ahmedabad also clocked 20 per cent, 7.4 per cent and 4 per cent growth respectively.
