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 have allotted 60X 40 site and I submitted Affidavit. For what amount should I take DD including Sale deed etc.

    • Total site value - initial deposit + ( ಕೊಳಚೆ + ಗುತ್ತಿಗೆ amount)

      i suggest u do online transfer/ issue cheque. for DD exchange amount is huge.

        • After 15 days they will cal u for registration.after its not absolute sale deed rather lease cum sale deed.. they will give u matter what u have to get it typed on stamp paper.

          • How much I have to pay for ಕೊಳಚೆ + ಗುತ್ತಿಗೆ amount for 60X40 site
            5231255-654000+( ಕೊಳಚೆ + ಗುತ್ತಿಗೆ amount)

          • sorry for my last post..i think ಕೊಳಚೆ + ಗುತ್ತಿಗೆ amount can be paid later.. tumoro im visiting BDA i will confirm..

          • Dear Babu,

            i will make it simple..if u make DD confirmed that amount will be remittted by BDA however exchange rate are too high (not recomended)

            next best option is cheque provided u have a canara bank account..

            3rd option of online transfer i u have canara bank account u can do online transfer and ask ur branch to prove that u have sent amount to commissioner BDA (aac. no.) ur branch manager will authenticate it with a ref. No. Take this to C bank BDA branch n they will give u a challen telling that u have paid amount.

            if u have a non canara bank account u have to to NEFT. this transaction can be authenticated using UTR No. that gets generated.

            *** please make sure Acc. No. of commissioner BDA is correct before ur transfer.

            hope this helps..

          • u need not pay ಕೊಳಚೆ + ಗುತ್ತಿಗೆ amount .. confirmed.. i had been to BDA today

          • CONSIDERING dd CHARGES HIGH, RTGS IS ANOTHER OPTION. PL LET US KNOW WHETHER ANYONE HAS DONE RTGS. IF SO ACCOUNT NO. BDA AT CANARA BANK BDA OFFCE BRANCH AND IFSC CODE

            AFRAID IT SHOULD NOT LANDUP IN ANY OTHER ACCOUNT. ALSO IS THERE ANY LIMIT OF RTGS PER DAY. READ AS 10 LACS MAX A DAY.

            REQUST OTHERS WHO HAVE MADE RTGS TO REPLY . TKS
