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.

  • Lot of people are talking about filing the case. But let us first find a way to get connected to each other. Have a discussion face to face. Then we can proceed further

  • Called BDA 080-23442271 and dedicated KG layout number 080-23440480,Front desk lady tells it will take another 20 more days,Funny thing...Dedicated department hos also no update it seems ,The person answered call says"gotila sir,update yenu illa sir,wait maddi sir bekadre higer officers na meet maddi mathadi" last week they used to tell this month now their answer is gotila......Authority is keeping us in dark,no clue whats going on,At least they have to give official statement why its delaying being responsible authority,They must keep us updated.....its not noble cause,we are buyers,they should keep us updated on all latest updates.......

  • I think this is the only way our money will be refunded...

    The BJP has threatened to lay siege to the Bangalore Development Authority office along with Kempegowda Layout applicants if the authorities don’t refund with interest the initial deposit submitted by the applicants not shortlisted.

    Although BDA had agreed to refund the amount within three months of the announcement of the final list of site allottees, it has not announced the final list even one year after the notification, said BJP spokesman Suresh Kumar. “So far, only a provisional list has been announced. Going by that, of the Rs. 717.21 crore collected as initial deposit, Rs. 549.69 crore has to be refunded.”

    He claimed that he had discussed the issue with City Development Minister K.J. George last year and that he has written to him again.

  • Hi
    What's the latest update about kg layout .any of you visited Bda office . Height of negligence just fed up .

  • BDA has time to update website each day on SteelBridge status/progress..... :)

    No time to think/release NKG layout allotment...allotment is not priority task for them....

    • If we see the simulated videos uploaded by BDA on Steel bridge,it also not addressing any junctions which are now bottle necks in bellery road stretch.Its only useful for those who will be traveling to airport and some who stays near hebbal,yelahanka and other residential layouts, Its temporary solution. Why don't they are implementing Metro from city to airport,It was planned earlier to steel bridge proposal,metro can only be permanent solution.

      • Metro is Good solution, it will cheap for travelers , decent & safe as well for airport wish they build metro .

  • If I am allotted a site, for some personal reasons if I am not able to get it registered,
    will BDA return my initial deposit ? or will they forefeit my money?
    PLEASE GIVE CORRECT answer. If they are not refunding the money, where is the rule in the notifiction that says that deposit is non returnable. Please clarify

    • Now only submit letter to BDA to cancel your allotment you get refund back other you dont get because unallottees itself are not able to get back refund from BDA, still struggling. how can you once allotted and if you do it now at least you can avoid benami allotment from BDA

    • Now only submit letter to BDA to cancel your allotment you get refund back other you dont get because unallottees itself are not able to get back refund from BDA, still struggling. how can you once allotted

    • Nothing to worry gentleman - you will get the refund, however your sites will be given to benami thru representative of citizens

  • To all applicants, who had not been allotted plots. As per the latest update from BDA, refund may be happening towards month end. Not sure if they will honor this timeline. Wonder why are they holding our money since any way plot is not allowed to us, this is pure day robbery.

    • True..
      All corrupt politicos and bureaucrats
      We made fool of ourselves by believing in such a corrupt organization and applying for sites.
      It's high time, we should do something.
      We should start a petition and send it to the governor.

  • Dear All,
    Latest news is BDA is going to publish the final list in next week Friday (21-Oct-2016). List without site number and block number.
    Next month end we shall receive the allotment letter with site number and block number.

    One more news is next month first week BDA is going to mark the site numbers with map in each sector.
    Last point is regarding refund: BDA shall start the refunding in the last week of this month.

    So In another two weeks of time or first week on next month both final list and refund should get over.

    Regards,
    Hiremath

    • Guru or Hiremath,

      What is the source of this information . From where did you get the above information.
      Every now & then we are getting or facing same sort of un appropriate information. We are in a state not to trust any sentence stated any where. Before they said in the first week of Oct, then second now 3rd week that too Friday. All these information's appears not reliable .

      • Agree with Raj..Please dont share any information that you are not sure of....It will only keep others waiting :P

      • Raj,

        This i found in another blog called as mybdasite and this information shared by Hiremath. I am not sure the information source.
