    The Charminar in Hyderabad. The city is witnessing a strong surge in leasing activity.

    Salesforce has leased around 7 lakh sq ft of space in Hyderabad for a period of six years, registration documents accessed by PropStack showed. The floors, spread across an area of 6,82,768 sq ft, come with 911 parking slots, the documents showed.

    Salesforce, an American technology company that specialises in customer relationship management, leased the floors for a monthly rent of Rs 71 per sq ft. The total amount works out to around Rs 4.8 crore a month.

    The company leased the space at Divyasree Orion, Block 3, Serilingampally in Hyderabad, Telangana and registered the lease on October 11, 2021.

    The transaction date was December 15, 2020, and the expected lock-in expiry is until December 2023, the documents showed.

    There was no response from the company.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How does a vaccine work?

    A vaccine works by mimicking a natural infection. A vaccine not only induces immune response to protect people from any future COVID-19 infection, but also helps quickly build herd immunity to put an end to the pandemic. Herd immunity occurs when a sufficient percentage of a population becomes immune to a disease, making the spread of disease from person to person unlikely. The good news is that SARS-CoV-2 virus has been fairly stable, which increases the viability of a vaccine.

    How many types of vaccines are there?

    There are broadly four types of vaccine — one, a vaccine based on the whole virus (this could be either inactivated, or an attenuated [weakened] virus vaccine); two, a non-replicating viral vector vaccine that uses a benign virus as vector that carries the antigen of SARS-CoV; three, nucleic-acid vaccines that have genetic material like DNA and RNA of antigens like spike protein given to a person, helping human cells decode genetic material and produce the vaccine; and four, protein subunit vaccine wherein the recombinant proteins of SARS-COV-2 along with an adjuvant (booster) is given as a vaccine.

    What does it take to develop a vaccine of this kind?

    Vaccine development is a long, complex process. Unlike drugs that are given to people with a diseased, vaccines are given to healthy people and also vulnerable sections such as children, pregnant women and the elderly. So rigorous tests are compulsory. History says that the fastest time it took to develop a vaccine is five years, but it usually takes double or sometimes triple that time.

    Experts say after a devastating wave in the second quarter of 2021, leasing activity improved meaningfully in Q3 2021 for the first time since the onset of the pandemic. The strong surge in leasing activity can be attributed to the translation of pent-up demand from previous quarters as corporates are planning for a gradual re-entry due to a significant decline in Covid-19 cases.
