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 my father has applied for the site and not sure where to check for the allotted list can anyone help me on this a link or site name can do plz assist.

    Thanks
    Dinesh

  • Hi All,

    I am definitely sure that atleast 5 to 10 % of people will deny the allotment due to financial reason/ any other reason
    does anybody aware how BDA will re-allot the denied sites to the next eligible applicant?

    1. When this will done?
    2. Does BDA will announce the re-alloted list on there web site?

    we need to follow up on the denied sites also, since there are chances where this sites can be allotted to influenced people.

    • Mr.sham, I have the same doubt. I think we can send a mail to BDA and if there is no reply we may have to put an RTI appln.

  • Hi,

    BDA has demanded more number of attempts for other categories compared to general category how is it?

    EWS : GC- 4 attempt, other categories it is 5,4,6,5,4 attempts

    similarly same can be observed in other dimension of sites, if anybody have idea please feel free to share it.

  • Hi At last BDA allotted site to me in KG layout after 7th attempt showing in the list as 5th attempt .Is there any one guide me whether it is worth getting registered and it is an absolute sale deed or conditional sale deed

  • Dear need any help in getting loan from bank please contact 9980007772 / 9741952377
    `

  • After browsing the cut off list it looks like BDA has given relaxation to age limit in all the categories(when compared to cut off list) provided number of attempts are satisfied soley.

    relaxation of age limit is too high if you observe the list carefully.

    Also i am very much surprised by looking at the below allotees under EWS category (serial number ranges from 609 to 612).

    they have been allotted for age 20, 24, 26, 27 i am not sure whether its a genuine case in which they inherit seniority from there late parents.

    can anybody share there thoughts on relaxation of age limit when compared to corresponding cut off list.

    • relaxation of age limit is too high if you observe the list carefully Ex: EWS list under General Public.

      according to cutoff list date of birth should be on or before 18/02/1941 but they have alloted even upto 1989.

  • Hi,

    After a painful waiting of 6 months, my mother who is a senior citizen and resident of Bangalore for the past 61 years (since birth) has not been allotted site.

    Request you to please refund the deposit money asap as we are paying interest for it. Kindly guide us on the process for getting the money back.

    Thanks and Regards,
    Damodar

    • BDA used to send the refund amount by speed post to the address mentioned in the application by themselves to the unsuccessful applicants. However this time hope that they will refund it electronically since they have collected the bank details.

      • hi all

        As per rule, reservations are sc, st, OBC, and general, no other reservations still if they do reserve like state govt and central govt again they have to follow reservations, here no categorization in state and central govt quotas may be its violation of reservation rules here it needs legal consult

        Please share your opinion can we file objection on this

        • Pl see application notification, there is reservation for central and state employees, Ex-servicemen, handicaped etc. But at end of allotment list am unable to understand which category it is and was it there originally, all have got 30*40 site for first attempt. Can anybody explain who are they.

          • hi shenoy sir

            your opinion is right ya there is reservation for Ex-service man and PH in constituency

            but no reservation like state and central if they want to provide again they have to follow reservation structure among created with in list only GM has got, its my opinion

            raju

  • Congratulations for all the allotted applicants.!

    As basic amenities like Tar roads, sewage, water, electricity are not ready yet, we should insist BDA for the payment of remaining amount in 6 installments spread over the one year starting from 1st October 2016. (Hoping that all basic amenities will be ready in 1 year time). Otherwise, we will be paying huge interests for the loan towards the payment of remaining amount.

    Can anybody can throw light on whether all the 5000 sites are in one block or spread over different pockets and where is the exact location of these? How will be the development of the layout including connectivity to Mysore road, PRR, Metro, Nice road etc? IF any body has access to DPR of KG Layout, request you to share for the benefit of everybody.

    We hope BDA will do a very good job in developing the Kempegowda layout as a model layout as it is their last layout.

    With best regards
    Prakash

    • Yes we must request for 1yr period for making full payment,as site values are huge for the comfort of senior citizens.
      Regards,
      aimtiaza

      • Yes, All the Allottees should try to make representation to BDA / HIgh Court for this as they are not charging nominal rates but commercial rates for the sites. Moreover they are coming out with layouts at their whims and fancies. Previous layout was about 11 years back. So it should not be a problem for them to give one year time to the allottees. Suggest allottees to form a group and give representation through Advocate to both BDA and High Court.

  • My friend applied under ST category for 50 * 80 and this is his third attempt. Though he satisfies the cut off conditions, he is not allotted. Any idea what could be the reason and the next steps that could be taken?

  • Many congratulations to those who got the site & thanks to all the key people who shared necessary information in a timely manner.
