What Savills India does

Savills India (legal entity: Savills Property Services (India) Private Limited, incorporated 2016, formerly FPD Property Services) is the Indian operating subsidiary of London-listed Savills plc (FTSE250), the UK-headquartered global real estate advisory firm founded in 1855. The India entity employs 700+ professionals across 9 offices in Mumbai, Delhi NCR (Gurgaon), Hyderabad, Bengaluru (two locations), Chennai, Pune, Ahmedabad, and Kolkata, providing a full-service real estate advisory platform covering commercial advisory and transactions, capital markets, project management, valuation and professional services, residential, industrial and logistics, data centres, coworking, retail, land services, mixed-use development, sustainability/ESG, student housing, retirement living, and affordable housing.

The firm's core technology is essentially non-proprietary — Savills India generates revenue through human-delivered advisory and transaction services rather than technology products. Revenue mechanics are quote-based, engagement-by-engagement professional services fees negotiated on transaction value, scope, and client requirements, with multi-year contracts for ongoing mandates. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales: dedicated city-level advisory teams supported by Savills' global network of 42,000+ professionals across 700+ offices in 70+ countries, enabling cross-border deal flow and access to international investor capital for Indian institutional and developer clients.

In April 2026, Savills acquired a majority stake in Hotelivate to create the Hotelivate-Savills sub-brand, extending into dedicated hospitality advisory across South Asia and APAC. Primary customer segments are institutional investors and developers, corporate occupiers (including Global Capability Centres and multinational technology firms), industrial and logistics operators, data centre hyperscalers and colocation providers, hospitality investors and operators (via Hotelivate-Savills), and high net worth individuals seeking premium residential. Savills India has been certified as a Great Place to Work for seven consecutive years and was ranked among India's 100 Great Mid-Size Workplaces in 2026 (55th), with ISO 45001:2018 certification maintained for four years.
