Should you apply for BDA site in Kempegowda (KG) Layout? – My Opinion

  • BDA reserves the right to allot sites. Kindly note that this is not a BDA e-Auction. The allotment is based on various factors like seniority, number of previous attempts (number of times an applicant has tried to obtain a BDA site), no of years domiciled in Karnataka etc., So, the basis of allotment is purely subjective. I do not think even lucky draw is conducted. So, looks like the allotment may or may not happen in a transparent way. This is my personal opinion.
  • As per my knowledge, the average market price in and around Kemepegowda Layout is between Rs 2,000 to Rs 2,500 per sq feet. The BDA sites have also been priced in the same way. It’s been a long time since BDA has come up with new Layout in Bengaluru. So, the demand for these BDA plots can be high. So, let’s monitor the demand for these BDA residential sites.
  • Check if there are any conditions applicable on ‘Re-sale’ of sites after the allotment is done. Generally, BDA does not allow immediate re-sale of its sites. So, check with BDA about this condition.
  • Getting a Home Loan sanctioned for a BDA site can be easy (subject to your eligibility).

Kindly keep the above points in mind before applying for a site in Kempegowda Layout.

  • Hi All,

    New BDA commissioner taken in-charge why so called NPKGL welfare association not planning to visit BDA and meet new chairman with requestions? They are not doing anything to safeguard members...they not doing any productive work....even in groups they formed same been asked but no one is responding,association is waste and the committee members are doing things which benefit them....collecting money,roaming behind politician to build their political career taking welfare name,fighting with misunderstanding,not listening members advice....NPKGL association president Balakrishna openly said he is old and he cant go every where,then why cant he step down and hand over responsibility to others??? Secretary Hiremath of association proposed court plan 2-3 months ago and he said official requestion will not work only court case can give justice to all but now he step back stating association will not associate on legal matter...then why he initially proposed this and provoked members....one of the worst associatin sofar seen...i dont know who elected them as committee members....

      • I think in few days association will be closed because no one interested to do work which will benefit all,President Balakrishna wants authority,everything in his hand without working and secretary Hiremath wants to make his career in political party so he is roaming behind Suresh Kumar without doing anything for members....

  • Hi All,

    The association formed by some of allottes in no more wellfare association and its moving in different direction. I been many meetings done by association and seen/observed its not moving towards to achieve welfare of allottes instead it becoming shelter to take political beneficiary for some.....

    They have plan A,B.....everything is half done. Now they are forcing individual to move to court to get some benefit.If this is the case why association is required....core-team who initiated formation is no longer with association like surya,who played key role for forming association,President(Balakrishna),VP(Karunakara Shetty) and secretary(Hiremath) is not trying to bring him back even so many requested to bring him back to association,They are behaving like association is their property. No chance will be given to members of association to raise question in meeting,they not allow to bring our issues,concern and points and they even dont care if we have new idea,They just ask us to do what they have planned that's it.

    Santhosh put effort to gather RERA and he met advocates on this. He also told some NGO's to be involved to force government to implement RERA but surprisingly no one is caring his efforts. Even observed there is no co-ordination between committee members...

    Association is no more useful for any of allottes as per my experience. One of the worst association seen so far,they collecting money money and they are not doing anything for the benefits of all allotts...........

    In my advice please dont join association because the people running association is not doing any productive work or which might help allottess,when core-members himself left association means something fishy....better to keep away from people like these. Anyways we are buying BDA property and they will provision amenities for sure,association cant do anything here, everything will be given to all blocks sectors...as per my experience till now with association its waste of time....

    • True....Evevn i felt the same...some of them are using association to build their political base....no use for common people like us...

  • BDA is disappointed by cancellation of Steel Bridge project !!!
    Cash Cow for BDA is no more.
    Now their only source of making money is NKG Layout.
    So we allottees should be BEWARE OF BDA.

  • HI,

    Is there a whatsapp group for site allotees?. Is it useful to be in whtsapp? If so, How can I be added in the group?

    Thank You

  • Has anybody found out (through RTI or any other sources) about how many people have surrendered their allotments to BDA? This helps the allottees to bargain better with the BDA. I recently read a news stating that BDA is in financial crunch. So there are all possibilities that they will yield to our demands.

  • Dear All,

    Today, BDA Board Meeting is scheduled at 11:30 AM., The Agenda is Arakavathy Allottees Issues and Nadaprabhu Kempegowda Layout Allottees concerns. As you all are aware, our "Nadaprabhu Kempegowda Layout Allottees Welfare Association" has given representation after Agitation in front of BDA on 24th Jan 2017. We have ask 5 Specific Points, for which BDA will have to Answer today after the Meeting. We have asked for Extension on Payment due date from 60 days deadline to addition 4 months. So Total 6 months interest free Payment. This will also be discussed.

    • Dear Ray

      Any idea on the outcome to today's BDA Board Meeting? Im sure everybody will be waiting to know the outcome on the points that the Association has raised. Kindly update us if there's something to.

          • Hi All,

            is there any official communication regarding extension to make the payment towards to BDA, if yes can you please share the link?

            I have now checked in the BDA website but no mention of that,

            Thanks

          • Hi Friends,

            Is there ant steps/process of BDA site registration for persons who is availing loans from bank.

            Can some one put the steps in detail about how do we go about the registration.

            Thanks
            Surya

          • Surya,

            You may be interested in step 3 onwards. My understanding of the steps involved are

            1. Pay (Site Value - Initial Deposit) in BDA Challan to Canara Bank counter in BDA Complex, if Site Value < 50 lakhs or Pay (Site Value - Initial Deposit - 1% of Site Value) in BDA Challan to Canara Bank counter in BDA Complex. Payment can be paid through DD or Bankers Cheque, payable to BDA Commissioner, Bangalore. I'm informed that we need to take 6 copies of the allotment letter when we go to make payment.

            2. Bank will stamp the challan receipt after payment.

            3. Go to DS-n with the pink slip (you have obtained while submitting affidavits) and the bank stamped challan and ask DS date and time for registration. Ask DS-n officer details of payment you need to make to the Sub-Registrar for registration.

            4. If Site Value is greater than 50 lakhs, you need to pay 1% of site value as TDS in Income Tax site. You will need to show the payment receipt at time of registration.

            5. Obtain DD for Registration as per information provided by Sub-Registrar.

            6. Go to Sub-Registrar for registering the Sale/Lease deed. Take DD and other documents as per information provided by DS-n officer.

            7. Once the deed is registered, you will need to provide this to the bank from where you received the loan as mortgage.

            Note - This is based on information collected. I have not yet paid or registered. You should validate with the DS-1/DS-2/DS-3/DS-4 officer in BDA office.

            Someone who has already registered may clarify if some step is missing or wrongly mentioned.

          • Any Site Purchased above 50 lakhs we need to pay TDS as far as i read online. But the allotment letter mentions the 100% site value to be paid to BDA.
            Is TDS paid from our own money after paying 100% site value to Seller. Is there a Seller PAN number to which we need to pay TDS?
            I am getting very different information when i speak to BDA officials.

  • Does anyone know where is BLOCK 2 SECTOR H. I am not able to find the site at this location, if someone has already found out can you send the coordinates or exact directions to get here. If there is a map for this location please share.
    Regards,
    Ramya

  • I have applied loan for the site in canara bank and is under process. They have asked me to take a DD of Rs. 1860/- and 3720/- . Pl let me know in whose name the DD has to be taken

    • Hi

      May be this amount is towards Processing charges... I guess... so, it is better to check with the Bank itself.
