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.

  • I want to buy BDA 30*40 site at kempegowda layout, 24 lakh is it worth to buy
    preasently I am working in private sector, even though if allottad also I don't have that much money to adjust,
    I have to go to loan

    can you suggest if I got Site is it house will construction immediately?

    • Good question, Can anybody reply please. Is it worth buying under loan. only 2000 sites available under 30x40 dimension @ 2000rs/sqft and Today demand might be there, because its last layout. It will be well planned because its being formed now. But future will there be growth? People are buying @ 1000 to 1200 Rs/Sq ft near Airport Devanahalli side. Alos 1000 Acr Aerospace Hub SEZ is notified there. There is nothing notified on this side. No IT hub, nothing. Also December End is deadline. How many months will take to allot site (if not when they will return money), Initial Deposit money (Interest free for BDA).

  • I am applying for bda site in nadaprabhu kempgowda layout for 15*24 mts .This is my third attempt . I want to know in this attempt whether I will get allotment letter.If not alloted when bda will return my initial deposits.

  • Its 8th Attempt for site in BDA, pretty sure site might be allotted under General, 30x40. However I do not have 24lakh, I might have to go for loan for at least 20 lakh. 1) Do you think it is worth buying there at 2000rs/sq-ft? I will have to wait for 8 to 10 yrs if i have to construct house or 2) will the property value grow to good amount by then at 10yrs given the location of layout. I might end paying 50 lakh at 20 yr tenure. so Please let me know is it worth investing here? Last layout from BDA, location seems to be with good supply of water and connecting road like NICE, mysore road and proposed metro station. However there are no IT Parks announced at Blore West, but industries might come up at Bidadi.

    • Dear Ray..Yes, definitely the prices is on a higher side. Also, West Bangalore yes yet to witness commercial activity. If you want to settle down in blr then it may be a better decision to buy a BDA property.

  • Hi sir this is Abhirami .M this is my time applying for bda site I am a sc category so what all the documents I have submit along with application form to bank

  • Hi, I am working for a private company. In the BDA application, we need to get signature from the Employer..........Do I need to get the HR signature for the Employment Certificate, which is mentioned in the BDA application?
