Amazon India to Relocate Bengaluru Headquarters to Cut Costs
The move from the World Trade Centre to Devanahalli aims to reduce rental expenses significantly.
- Amazon India will begin relocating its Bengaluru headquarters in April 2025, with completion expected by April 2026.
- The new office near Kempegowda International Airport will reduce Amazon's rental costs to less than a third of the current rate.
- Over 5,000 employees face longer commutes and potential relocations as the new site is 20 km from the current location.
- The current headquarters at the World Trade Centre occupies 18 floors and is part of a complex with extensive amenities.
- This move follows a trend of companies like Zepto and Boeing seeking cost-effective office spaces in Bengaluru's outskirts.
