It does not include the weighted average rentals of any tenant whose lease would have commenced earlier than the current year.

One way to do it is to bifurcate it into passing and market rentals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Take a look at the passing vs. market rent for Gurgaon from 2017 upto 2022, documents accessed through CRE Matrix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The average passing rent for Gurgaon in 2017 was Rs. 74.3 per Sq.ft in a month as opposed to the market rent that was Rs. 79.3 per Sq.ft on a monthly basis.
