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.

  • For the first time I recd this reply from BDA.:

    The Allotment list for Kempegowda layout sites is ready. However, due to some official procedures, the announcement has been delayed. After the due official procedures are compiled with, the list will be announced. Hopefully the announcement will be made very soon.

    • I am feeling fishy about the process that has taken place , 1stly home minster said on June 15th later Sham bhat wants to release the list on the same day when he is moving out of the department & the new commissioner wants to review the allotment letter once again so that he can accommodate his well wishers and his circle of trusted peoples , I am getting a sense that this time also We will not be allocated, can they but what all reviews and changes made by the new commissioner compared with the allotment letter made be the previous commissioner in the public domain , answer would be "NO".

      • The list is said to be approved by committee of 6 but it has only 3 now, so they are appointing full committee in board meeting on 29th. List will be approved in its meeting afterwards, so minimum one week for approval, all depends.

      • Even for me same message on 25-06-16, looks like its reply copy pasted for all enquire.

        Dear Sir,

        The Allotment list for Kempegowda layout sites is ready. However, due to some official procedures, the announcement has been delayed. After the due official procedures are compiled with, the list will be announced. Hopefully the announcement will be made very soon.

  • I AM NAGARAJ, AGED 53 YEARS 5TH ATTEMPT IS IT POSSIBLE TO GETTING SITE AT KG LAYOUT SRIKANTH SIR

  • What's the chance of my father in law getting 30*40 site,. His is the 2nd attempt under obc category 2B.
    Regards,
    aimtiaza

  • Spoke to land acquisition officer..he says new commitee needs to be constituted...allotment might take 1 more month

    • New committee bieng constituted on 29th. If they accept list already prepared and ready, list can be out in first week July or another couple of months also.

  • What's the probability of getting site of 40*60, This is my first attempt with 76 years old ex-servicemen quota ?

  • Todays indian express. List was ready by 15th june but committee has only 3 members instead of 6. It will be reconstituted in board meeting on 29th. Thereafter list will be put up to committee in 2-3 days. So, we have to wait again as new committee may approve or not the list slready prepared, and number of meetings they hold etc., to approve. Earliest is 1st week July. If they review, uncertain when.

  • ACTUALLY SIR THIS IS MY 6TH ATTEMPT WE HAD APPLIED IN BDA ..PERVIOUSLY MY FATHER HAD APPLIED FOR 5 TIMES IN BDA FOR SITE ALLOTMENT BUT BAD LUCK HE DID’NT GET ANY ALLOTMENT IN BDA,, ONE YEAR BACK MY FATHER HAS EXPIRED NOW WE HAD APPLIED IN SENIORITY BASSES AND WE BELONG TO RESERVATION CATEGORY,,,DO WE GET ALLOTMENT AT LEAST THIS YEAR....

    • Yes, you have a very high chance of getting, keep in mind all the rules will apply to you, i mean you nor any of yours dependents should not have any land/plot on there names, its all online now Its easy to track

  • My observation on the applicants on EWS –category for KG layout is that BDA has received nearly 13,500 application for EWS-20X30 which is highest among all other category , as we all know that eligibility for EWS is that income should not be more than 1 Lakh PA ,let’s say approximately 8,000/- RS per month , my common sense is suggesting that 90-95 % of EWS applications are PROXY. This is fully PROXY ,PROXY. Honestly speaking ( 99%) the group of people who are earning less than 8000/- Per month does not care of applying BDA sites because they are busy fighting for their daily livelihood & remaining 1% even if they aspire they cannot afford 5.5 Lakhs just for a site ( in today’s inflation how much they can save out of 8000/- rs , even if they save 4000/- rs it will take years together to accommodate that much money ) , in today’s world mason is earning 600-800 Rs per day.

    When I see people who are able to turn on computer , open web browser , search google for bda kempe gowda site and write in blog asking questions , I am sure that they can earn more than 15,000/- Rs easily and THEY are applying sites in EWS category which is really unbelievable and complete hoax , reality is true people who fall under EWS will never even dare to try to apply , because of real estate fast money people are using PROXY methods to buy sites in BDA , I do also know it’s an open secret , but BDA has to make sure it does strict verification for EWS category.

    • If i am correct, there is 20*30 site for other than EWS. Because many prople this time who earlier opted for 30*40 have now changed to 20*30 wherein thier earlier seniority is counted.

    • Just now saw in BTV NEWS,,, ALLOTMENT list will be out on 30th of June 2016. As new commissioner visited KG LAYOUT WITH BDA OFFICIALS.

      • I agree with Kumar. Same time, BDA also should have revised the earning based on todays inflation.

  • Dear PAVAN & Friends,
    I have recently relocated from Blr to my native place in Andhra.
    If I was in Bengaluru, would have surely arranged for a Group meeting. Suggest you guys form as a group, assemble at one common place and fight for your rights. Let Justice favor the COMMON MAN and not just the wealthy!

    • Hi Sreekanth,

      Its a great thought from you, if possible please initiate a meeting that will definitely help all the members in this site.

    • New BDA commissioner Dr.Khatri visited kempegowda layout today. He is very happy with the work done in layout.
      He told that allotment list will be announced 30th June.
