Cheering the news, shares of Smartworks Coworking Spaces rose as much as 1.77% to ₹384.80 on the BSE, while its market capitalisation climbed to ₹4,368.25 crore. Earlier in the session, the stock had declined as much as 2.7% to an intraday low of ₹367.65, before recovering 4.66% from the day’s low.

Neetish Sarda, Founder and Managing Director, said the expansion reflects growing demand from enterprises for scalable, multi-city workspace solutions.

“As enterprises expand across regions, they increasingly value consistency in experience, speed of execution, and the ability to scale seamlessly within a single ecosystem. This continued expansion across four cities reflects the strength of the platform we have built and the long-term relationships we continue to deepen with global clients,” he said.

1,000+ seat clients account for 35% of revenue

The deal underscores a broader trend of large enterprises opting for campus-style, multi-city workspace partnerships. Smartworks said large-format deployments, clients with over 1,000 seats, contribute around 35% of its revenue, driven by enterprise and global capability centre (GCC) demand.
