● A new experience centre in Shivajinagar, Pune, marks Abby Lighting’s deliberate push beyond Mumbai and serves as a blueprint for a pan-India presence. The experience centre is a tech-forward space with wireless solutions integrated seamlessly across the environment.
Abby Lighting, one of India’s foremost architectural lighting manufacturers, has announced the opening of its second fully interactive experience centre in Shivajinagar, Pune. The launch marks the next step in the brand’s deliberate national expansion, following its flagship experience centre in Mumbai, and brings to Pune a depth of expertise in lighting and controls specification expertise previously limited in the Pune market.
The timing reflects a market in motion. India’s office real estate sector recorded its strongest year on record in 2025, with gross leasing activity reaching 83.3 million square feet nationally, Pune alone crossing 10 million square feet for the first time, according to JLL. Alongside this, India’s luxury hospitality segment is projected to grow at a demand CAGR of 10.6 percent through FY2028, outpacing supply growth nearly two to one, according to JM Financial and HVS Anarock. Premium experiences are no longer aspirational, they are a baseline expectation across corporate, residential, and leisure contexts. Lighting is among the most consequential elements shaping the quality of these spaces.
Abby Lightings project footprint spans multiple cities across India, supported by an active network of ongoing projects and distribution partnerships. The company already has a presence in Chennai, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, and several other cities through its partner network.
The brands Pune portfolio alone encompasses some of the city’s most significant commercial addresses like Deutsche Bank, CRISIL, Roche, British Petroleum, UBS, Infosys, Lupin, and Poonawalla Fincorp in Koregaon Park alongside hospitality commissions including Novotel Pune, Dukes Retreat in Khandala, and Asilo, and the institutional landmark of the Firodia Institute of Philosophy, Culture, and History. Large-scale work in progress includes AP4 Tech Park, a 4 million square feet development across 17 acres.
The Pune experience centre, designed in collaboration with Sparc Design, features over 100 live, wireless, fully controllable fixtures spanning architectural and decorative categories across office, residential, retail, and hospitality applications.
