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.

  • FYI ALL!!!

    No Lottery System on these 5000 sites, BDA Notification says the allotment will be based on the Attempts and Seniority. 6 Months were taken to do so, now lottery is impossible and will not happen. TOI - Times of India is one shitty news paper/may be the editor who approved this news. I will sue BDA if they make this Lottery system and will call this as Act of Fraud.

    • Yes, lottery will be an act of treachery. But it has to be confirmed by BDA, they simply cant do it.

    • Hi Ray..
      Also previously it was told 32000 applicants now it is 17000 .how to make sure that people are against this lottery system and get proper justice as innocent people will lose hope of getting site based on attempts.

      Thanks

      • I think minister was given incorrect information by his advisors. So he just blurted out something.

    • Hi ,

      i think Allotment will be based on attempts but site number will be decided by lottery!!!.

  • How can lottery come into play? The rules specify that allotment is based on seniority of both age and/or number of attempts.

    Or has the minister been ill-informed by his advisors about allotment process.

  • Bengaluru Development Minister KJ George said,

    "We have received around 17,000 applications seeking sites in the Layout. BDA will be selecting the allottees through lottery and those applicants failing to make it to the list will be getting their deposits back by July end. There are 5,000 sites on offer in the Kempegowda Layout in the current phase,"

    HI SREEKANTH REDDY,

    IS THERE ANY TRANSPARENCY FOR LOTTERY SYSTEM OR ELSE ONLY BDA WILL DECIDE THE ALLOTTEES AS PER THEIR WISH IN THE NAME OF LOTTERY!!

    REGARDS,
    PRASHANTH

    • Laxity of BDA is evident here. If allotment process takes 6/8 months, One needs to ponder at what pace developmental work will be done in the layout.

  • I had called to BDA office(Phone No. 080 23445005) today, we need to wait till June end to get the allotment list.

  • Hi..
    How many applicants had applied for previous allotment ?

    What is the chance of getting 50x80 site for 3rd attempt for general category?

    Thanks

    • Hi All, As i have told you before, it is end of June is when the list will announced. The amendment of Rule on Interest i don't think it will happen, BDA is purpose fully holding on to our money only reason is INTEREST. To scrutinize 32000 application do you think it would take this long? If BDA had the list of previous attempts, they would already have a list for which this current attempt will have to added, and a Simple Excel sheet would give the seniority list (Provisional List) Then they can take up the Second level of checks on the eligible List. They simple want to delay and extend so that at the end of 6th month, BDA can earn 50 Crore Interest for the Deposits made.

      50×80

      Last person to get site in Arkavathy Layout.

      Gen – 5 attempt completed, born 26 Sep 1966
      SC – 3 attempt, 2 Dec 1972
      ST – 2 attempt, 27 May 1933
      Ex-Ser – 2 attempt, 11 Aug 1958
      State – 3, 31 Jan 1959,
      Central – 3 , BDA 17 jan 1952
      Handicap – 2 attempt, 10 jun 1934.

        • I had been to bda before apply for a 30*40 site in NY mother's name. Just wanted to confirm on the number of attempts.They have all the previous attempts data stored on a SQL database. That guy was struggling to write a query to chk.i helped him to write the query and the attempt details were exactly matching. My mother had applied twice in the year 1988. So, in all cases they have the data. This delay is purely to take bride n allot sites to their favourite and swallow interest on the deposit amouts. George is one of the most corrupt guy. We are only making him richer nw.

  • Dear Mr. Srikanth
    Is there no news at all about BDAs allotmemt of sites in Kempegpwda layout? Has anybody got any news? I had sent two mails to BDA but no reply.

  • Is there an FB page where we could connect & post.. its easy to track and keep in tough

  • I am surprised at seeing such rates for just sites now even from BDA...!!! ??? They should be ashamed that their last developments Viswesvaraya L/o, last stages of BSKs, Kengeri ST, Arkavati, Anajanapura did not develop even after 15 years.
