Once a quiet BDA layout in the 1970s, Indiranagar has morphed into Bengaluru’s most elite neighborhood. Known for its stylish homes, chic cafes, and dynamic nightlife, this area has become a hotspot for celebrities like Rahul Dravid and Deepika Padukone, who proudly claim their “Indiranagar ka Gunda/Gundi” titles.

The turning point came with the rise of 100 Feet Road, now recognized as the Asia-Pacific’s leading high street in retail. Luxury brands and high-end stores have established a dominant presence here, driving up commercial rents to an astonishing ₹40,000 per sq ft from just ₹2,000 in 2001.

Adjoining 100 Feet Road, Defence Colony has emerged as an upscale residential enclave with tree-lined avenues and elegant homes. Properties in this posh area command over ₹40,000 per sq ft, while nearby HAL Second Stage sees steady annual growth of 15%.

Rental demand mirrors these soaring prices. Compact studio apartments start at ₹20,000 per month, with fully furnished 1BHKs and 2BHKs ranging from ₹30,000 to ₹60,000. Despite the allure, rapid development has sparked zoning violations and unchecked commercialization, leaving environmentalists concerned.

Indiranagar’s unmatched connectivity and upscale amenities have made it a magnet for the affluent, solidifying its reputation as the crown jewel of Bengaluru’s real estate scene.
