For startups and small businesses, renting out a commercial property in HSR Layout, and doing up the interiors will cost a fortune. And especially, if you want to have a lean operating structure, renting out unfurnished spaces will not suit your business objectives. Coupled with the lost man-hours spent on furnishing the place and the fact that these are sunk costs (you cannot take the office interiors with you when you move out), it really puts a dent on your margins.
