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.

  • Hi Vidya, Raj, Ramesh and others, Yesterday when I enquired from Speed Post Man, he told that there is possibility of sending back the Cover to BDA office, due to some reasons. So today I went to BDA office ( 3rd Floor, Second Room) and enquired about the returned post cover. The Desk Clerk checked up the returned posts covers (there were about 20 to 25 covers which have been returned by the Speed Post Man on silly/many reasons). Alas, my allotment letter cover was there. ( Address was perfectly typed and sent. Even then the Speed Post Man has done the mistake and he had not done the delivery properly to my home address). The Desk Clerk gave me the Allotment letter (Cover) there itself, after duly seeing my identity card (any identity card to prove that the letter belongs to me). So, it is better, you go to BDA Office ( 3rd Floor, Second Room), and ask the Desk Clerk to check for the returned posts from the Speed Post Man. Hope you may get it there, if it is returned to BDA by Speed Post Man. All the best Vidya, Raj, Ramesh and others. And it is also confirmed that people having a revenue site or a house in revenue site in Bengaluru, is not an issue. All of you take the allotment letter and complete the formalities step by step.

    • I checked with the local PO and main Po and they had not received it. They said they did not send back . Then I went to BDA to check if the add was wrong and get the tracking no. There, as informed by AMS, above PRO, third floor second room, I met the officials who checked if anything had come back. It was not there. Then I met one Ms.Shwetha in the same room who said that it might be in the bundle sent for despatch today. Indeed it was there. But they did not handover and said it will be sent by speed post today. We have to submit at this place only. They gave me the papers to get it documented. Thank you AMS for the info. It was of great help.

      As informed by media, all letters have not been posted. They are still doing it.

      Mr. Vasishta, can we get the documentation done infront of BDA and submit on the same day? How long will they take? Pls reply.

      • Vidya, Raj and others, submission of affidavit duly signed by self and Notary, Rs.20/- Stamp Paper and all other formalities as of now (We can call it FIRST STAGE) can be easily done with the assistance of Xerox shop opp to BDA office. Nothing to worry. Within two days you can make it ready and submit it to BDA (Third Floor, Second Room). And another 60 days time is there for submission of DD ( Full amount). There is nothing about 1% TDS to IT Dept. for 30 X 40 size sites. I dont know about bigger size sites.

        • Dear Sir,

          You have mentioned that - submission of affidavit duly signed by self and Notary, but in the affidavit format they have mentioned signatory as Magistrate. Is notary signature meets the purpose??kindly clarify

        • Till what time the Xerox shop will open and any contact no. to contact the Xerox shop person. Please guide.

    • Thank you so much sir. I will check with the local PO today and if it is not come, will do as you say. Thank you very much for giving info in detail.

  • Hello All,
    We surrendered the 50X80 thinking that it may not worth the price and given all the real estate market condition, we are paying premium. We have requested to refund the initial deposit, should see how the BDA will respond

    • Hi
      Please tell me the procedure to surrender the 50X80 site
      I stay far from Bangalore
      Can we do it by post

      • Prepare an affidavit about the request and submit to BDA and get it endorsed. The actual rule is we will forfeit all the initial deposit, but we have made a request to refund. If they return with a small penalty, we will take it, if not I am planning to fight in court.

  • I haven't received the refund amount yet. BDA has done error in entering the IFSC code details. I went to BDA & made necessary corrections 2 weeks back. Still I haven't received the money yet.

    Shit BDA for their mistakes we have to go around them.

    • I haven't received refund either even after 3 visits and several calls. I am planning to file a case in district consumer court.

    • Hi Vidya, Raj, Ramesh and others, Yesterday when I enquired from Speed Post Man, he told that there is possibility of sending back the Cover to BDA office, due to some reasons.

    • I had also checked with the local post office. They asked for the tracking no.of the speed post which will help find where it is. We cannot get these details from BDA easily. If it does not come this week, we will have to go to BDA office and enquire. Hope all of us receive it by this weekend.

  • BDA executes lease cum sale agreement for ten years which bars registration of absolute sale deed till lease period.

  • I heard from people near BDA office talking that 40x60 and 50x80 allottees have to pay 7% TDS over & above registration amount i.e., Plot Amount exceeding 50lacs attracts tds. Any idea by anyone on this? Since I'm going for 40x60 plot, total amount (i.e, Plot Amount, TDS & Regn. Amount) would now exceed over 60lacs i hope.

    • It is ann IT rule. You will have to cut 1% TDS. FILE 26QB. This is not over and above. IT and CAG will track all such high value transaction, as they would appear kin traces too. Restrain from making any false claims in affidavit. You can find earliet cag reports on bda online. You can google and find one. All malpractices in false affidavit are caught.

        • Yes; 1% TDS. You have to pay this to IT department and get a challan before 7th of immediate month of payment. Without this, you can not fill 26QB, which is needed for registration f property. This is how different central organizations can start tracing the transactions and effectiveness of government schemes. There is more possibility of NKGL getting floated as smart city, allowing central agencies to track transactions closely (as there is central funding involved)

  • Dear All
