Recent reports indicate a 59% increase in ‘ghost shopping centers’ across India, with a locked-up value of ₹6700 crore. This alarming rise in underutilized retail space, particularly in the NCR region, highlights a significant shift in consumer behavior and the retail market landscape. The term ‘ghost shopping centers’ refers to malls with substantial vacancy rates, leading to a loss of potential revenue and investment opportunities. Knight Frank’s ‘Think India Think Retail 2024’ report provides an in-depth analysis of this trend, covering 340 shopping centers across 29 cities. While cities like Hyderabad show a decline in such vacant spaces, others like Kolkata have seen a dramatic increase. Despite these figures, the overall vacancy rate in major Indian cities has improved, excluding ghost centers. The potential for shopping centers in India to generate substantial revenue is still strong, with projections of $14 billion by FY 2024-25. This presents a unique opportunity for land monetization, asset consolidation, and strategic investment.

High street leasing dominated the Indian retail market in Q3 2024, capturing 68% of the 1.6 million square feet leased. Key cities like Hyderabad, Delhi-NCR, and Chennai drove 70% of these transactions. On the other hand, mall leasing accounted for only 32% due to a lack of new mall supply. Cities such as Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Pune, and Bengaluru led in mall transactions accounting for ~95% share amongst top 8 cities. Notably, international brands favoured mall spaces over high streets for their store openings, indicating higher preference for quality retail environments.

Good update from Phoenix. Consumption grew by 25% YOY driven by strong double-digit growth in their Mumbai and Lucknow malls. Additionally, the ramp-up in newly launched malls was very strong. The malls they launched in September and October of last year are now witnessing an occupancy rate of over 70%. In commercial, occupancy was also good during the quarter. In hospitality, both ARR and occupancy remained muted due to two reasons- the shifting of auspicious days from Q1 last year to Q2 this year and lower corporate travel due to elections. In the residential segment, gross sales have shown an improving trend due to faster conversions. Overall, the update is positive, and Phoenix remains an interesting player in the premiumization theme.

A concerning trend is emerging in India's retail sector: the rise of "ghost malls." Defined as shopping centers with vacancy rates exceeding 40%. Shifting consumer preferences, with a growing inclination towards online shopping and a desire for a more engaging experience offered by larger malls, are playing a significant role. Further exacerbating the issue is the presence of poorly planned malls with design flaws, inconvenient layouts, and a lack of anchor tenants – all of which make them unappealing to both retailers and customers. This lack of foresight in mall development has resulted in substantial financial losses, exceeding $524 million according to estimates. Cities like Delhi NCR, Pune, and Hyderabad are witnessing the most acute effects of this trend.
