Hyderabad - 2,700 6,000 [Rs /sft] Came into prominence in the last decade as an alternative to Bangalore. Tends to lag Bangalore by 3-6 months. Prices are likely to remain weak, if not stable and start inching up by 2H10.

Kolkata 2500-5000 [ Rs /sft] Came into prominence in the last 3-5 years as an emerging IT/ITeS hub in East India. Currently under pressure due to some state-specific issues. Prices are likely to remain under pressure and may stabilize by mid-2010.
