OR startups and new
businesses, setting up
workplace can be a real
challenge. With shrink-
ing space and increasing rentals of
conventional offices, developers
are looking for creating smart of-
fice spaces in forms of business
centres that offer a flexible and vi-
able workplace solution.
“The concept of business cen-
tres are fast catching up in the cit-

ies as people are looking for smart
office spaces. These offices provide
a desirable address at an afforda-
ble cost,” Vineet Taing, President
Vatika Business Centre said.
Vatika Business Centre (VBC),
is a unit of New Delhi-based Va-
tika Group. The VBC centres offer
fully-furnished ready to move in
offices. It offer co-working spaces,
private suites, meeting rooms and
seminar rooms, fully furnished

with executive chairs and tables,
projectors, flip boards, reliable wi-
fi connectivity and regular power
supply. The hub also offers cus-
tomized services like mail and dis-
patch services, secretarial staff, of-
fice reception and building
maintenance facilities, backed by
a cafeteria, smoking zone and
other common utilities.
“The current time is very excit-
ing. Many people are keen to start
something of their own and the
government programme like ‘Skill
India’, ‘Make in India’ are making
it more conducive for the people to
set up their own businesses. That
is the reason so many startups and
smaller businesses are coming up,”
Taing added.
And the model works perfectly
well with the small businesses.
The model helps businesses save
on costs of setting office and in-
crease or decrease the area of their
