Evaluating business premises in Navi Mumbai

Match the premises to the operation before comparing prices. An office, warehouse and customer-facing shop have different requirements for access, utilities, loading and operating hours.

Inspect the space for your business

For storage or distribution, check vehicle access, loading arrangements, ceiling clearance and permitted use. For offices and retail, examine employee access, customer visibility and the cost of preparing the space.

Compare the full cost

Ask for a written breakdown of rent or sale price, deposit, maintenance, parking, fit-out costs, applicable taxes and brokerage. Compare properties on the same area basis and clarify which expenses are recurring.

Check documents and permitted use

Ask the seller or landlord for ownership and authority documents, sanctioned use and applicable building permissions. Have a qualified local professional review the documents and proposed agreement for your transaction.

Before making a decision

• Measure usable space and confirm the quoted area basis.
• Record utilities, parking and operating-hour restrictions.
• Inspect the premises and surrounding access in person.
• Confirm current availability and all commercial terms in writing.

This is a general planning checklist. Requirements depend on the property and intended business.
