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.

      • Kiran,

        From where you got this data. Can you tell how many applications are received, size wize and catagary wise?

        Regards

      • Thx kiran. But this backword class 2B which has 10%reservation is newly formed category in this layout.

  • Hi Srikanth,

    when will we be getting the allotment list, as its April now.

    As per BDA they will provide the allotment list before 31st March 2016.

    Thank you,
    Prashanth

    • Friends - when the application was issued and it was indicated as last date of submission by 31st Dec 2016 and thereby allotment within 3 months - it means 31st Mar 2016. Subsequently submission extended till 17th Jan 2016, considering this we need to wait till 17th April 2016 as 3 months time. If not you can guess ???? !!!

  • Hello Sreekanth,

    When are we expected to get allotment results for KG Layout?

    It was supposed t be on march 31st 2016 right?

    Regards,
    Khadar

  • Hi Srikanth,

    when will we be getting the allotment list, as we are in the end of this month.

    As per BDA they will provide the allotment list before 31st March 2016.

    Thank you,
    Prashanth

    • This is the common question in all the minds. Why still no update?

      If anybody gets any information, please update here....

      Thanks,
      Shobha

      • Dear Shobha & friends..Kindly go through the comments/update posted by Ray, looks like the allotment can happen by end of April or in May only.

  • Hello friends, if anyone knows the details of compensated sites to farmers who gave their land for this layout .. when can we get compensated sites or any details.. please tell.. or email to gagandp85@gmail.com & help me to get details of procedures or developments ...

    • Friends now we are in March 2016 end and as per the original commitment of BDA, land allotment details will be released in this month. Looking at the silence of the agencies it looks like this month details expected unlikely.
      In case if any the member has an insight please share

      • The absence of any information from BDA or their site may make us to believe that they will take their sweet time before they announce the list of allottees and refund the money to the unsuccessful applicants. This time they have collected huge sum of money from the applicants and any undue interest earned by them should be objected to and we should demand refund with penal interest of say 18% per annum in the event they delay beyond 31st March 2016. Hope all agree to this. It is our hard earned money and no one is untitled to earn unduly at our expense. In the current age of fast moving world and computerisation, why should it take this long to finalise the list of allottees.
        SKMittra

          • Yes BDA cannot play with public money I dont think why bda is taken 2 and half months to announce the list since the applicants has mentioned by BDA is only 18000 and outside agency is engaged for the job if the said allotted is not finalised by 31st Govt./Bda should take the responsibility and pay interest or penalise the concerned authorities and fix responsibilities.
