Bengaluru Land Prices Skyrocket: From Rs 625 to Crores in 30 Years

  • A viral social media post highlights the dramatic increase in Bengaluru land prices from 1994 to today, sparking widespread discussion.
  • Areas like Kodigehalli, Yelahanka, Devanahalli, Airport Road, and Hennur, once considered distant, are now prime real estate.
  • In 1994, land in north Bengaluru was speculative; today, rates range from Rs 4,500 to Rs 14,000 per sq ft.
  • Economic growth, IT parks, improved infrastructure (roads, Namma Metro), and social amenities fueled the price surge.
  • Homeownership in these areas now often requires a budget of Rs 1 crore or more, reflecting the city's redefined urban boundary.

Why It Matters: Bengaluru's real estate has transformed dramatically, with land prices soaring due to economic and infrastructure growth.
