Gandhinagar is Gujarat’s planned capital, and its office demand splits cleanly in two — the government, institutional and PSU offices that fill the numbered sectors, and the fast-rising GIFT City, the country’s flagship fintech, IT and BFSI SEZ on the river. The two worlds want very different spaces. Briefs range from 1,500 sqft departmental and consulting offices in the sectors to 30,000-plus sqft grade-A corporate floors inside GIFT City’s towers.
The friction in Gandhinagar is the gap between the planned sectors and the SEZ. The sectors carry orderly but ageing government and commercial stock with their own departmental approval chains; GIFT City runs world-class towers with strict SEZ fit-out norms, vendor inductions, lift-booking and security clearances. A contractor who is not already cleared loses days at the gate. We pre-clear inductions, prepare drawings in the format the towers accept and survey sector buildings for access and load on the first visit.
The teams we build for here are fintech, IT and BFSI firms inside GIFT City, banks, exchanges and financial-services back-offices, government, PSU and institutional offices in the sectors, and the consulting and professional firms that serve both. GIFT City floors need real density planning, trading and operations zones, robust UPS and redundant cooling and meeting capacity at scale; sector offices need orderly, durable, authoritative layouts. We size services and design around how each operation actually runs.
A good deal of Gandhinagar work happens inside live SEZ towers or occupied government buildings, so we phase it zone by zone with dust isolation, off-hours civil windows and dedicated material routes that keep your teams moving through the build. Senior designer on the brief, in-house MEP coordination and a line-item BOQ that fits a corporate, banking or government procurement process cleanly.
On cost, Gandhinagar sits in the ₹2,500-5,000 per square foot band, with signature GIFT City BFSI floors above it and lean sector and back-office layouts below. A standard brief runs 10 to 18 weeks from sign-off to handover, depending on scale and SEZ clearances. We will not quote over the phone — a free site visit and a written, itemised BOQ within 7 working days gives you a number finance can sign off.
We cover all of Gandhinagar — GIFT City, the numbered sectors, Infocity, Kudasan, Sargasan and the Chandkheda approach. One senior designer from first sketch to final snag, in-house MEP, a clear BOQ, weekly reviews and twelve months of defect cover after handover. Planning a floor in GIFT City or a sector office?
