Brokerage Recommendations

As per the brokerage, WeWork India stands out as the country’s largest flexible workspace operator, benefiting from a rapidly expanding segment growing far faster than traditional offices. Its premium positioning supports stronger pricing and healthier margins compared to peers. Jefferies expects robust growth ahead, projecting a 22% revenue CAGR and an even stronger 28% EBITDA CAGR between FY25 and FY28, reflecting rising demand and operational leverage.
Financial & Operational Highlights
The company posted robust 22% revenue growth, rising from Rs 468.70 crore to Rs 573.03 crore. However, net profit dropped 96% to Rs 7.39 crore, mainly due to a one-time deferred tax of Rs 235 crore. Excluding this impact, underlying performance appears steady, though reported earnings reflect a temporary but significant financial hit.
In Q2FY26 showed steady growth across segments. Workspace-as-a-Service remained the core driver with 23% YoY expansion, while Digital Products delivered a strong 25% YoY rise despite flat QoQ momentum. Value-Added Services grew the fastest QoQ, now contributing about 11% of revenue, highlighting improving monetization beyond core workspace offerings.
WeWork India continues to scale strongly, operating 70 centers across 8 cities with 7.7 msf and 1.15 lakh desks. Including fit-outs and LOIs, capacity rises to 1.45 lakh desks. Despite a 21% YoY capacity jump, occupancy remains healthy at 80.2%, reflecting sustained demand and efficient absorption.
Management expects revenue growth above 20% in FY26, supported by a strong H1 run-rate. EBITDA margins are likely to remain around 20–21%, similar to the past two years. The company plans to add 20,000–25,000 seats annually, aiming for strong H2 conversions. Net debt is expected to be near zero by March 2026, with lighter H2 capex focused on refurbishments and monetized through better realizations.
Recently, WeWork India’s IPO, priced at Rs 648, saw a modest listing at Rs 650, delivering a minimal 0.31% gain.

The quick, stable listing reflects balanced demand and steady investor sentiment toward the flexible workspace player.
