Summary
Bengaluru is the fastest-rising big city in NHB’s official data. Its index was 21.5% higher in Apr–Jun 2026 than a year earlier, three times the 50-city figure. It had the fastest rise of the major cities NHB names in all 8 quarters we cover.
Our own tracker puts the city average at ₹12,800 per sq ft, up 84% in five years. Whitefield, the IT hub we track in detail, went from ₹6,800 to ₹11,500 per sq ft between 2021 and 2025. Builders are adding supply fast: 521 new projects were registered with K-RERA in 2025, the most in five years.
This report uses only data we hold: our tracker, our 14 priced Bengaluru project pages, NHB’s press releases and K-RERA lists. Nothing here is a forecast.

New supply: RERA project registrations in Bengaluru
Every new project must be registered with the state’s Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) before it is sold. The count of new registrations shows how much new supply is coming.
Across Bengaluru Urban district and Bengaluru Rural district, builders registered 521 new projects with K-RERA in 2025, against 288 in 2021 (+81%). The busiest year in this window was 2025, with 521.
Bengaluru Urban accounted for 78% of the new projects in 2025; Bengaluru Rural, around the airport and Devanahalli, for the rest.
Our Bengaluru Infrastructure Impact Report charts these registrations beside the city’s metro and road projects.
Buying in Bengaluru: how to use these numbers
Use this report to see price levels and direction, not to value one home.
- Compare like with like. Check whether a price per square foot is on carpet, built-up or super area before you compare.
- Check the RERA registration. Every project you consider should be registered, with a possession date on record.
- Look at the locality, not just the city. Whitefield, the Outer Ring Road and North Bengaluru near the airport all sell at different prices.
- Ask for the all-in price. Starting prices usually leave out parking, club charges, GST on under-construction homes, stamp duty and registration.
- Think about rent too. At a 3.8% gross yield, rent covers only part of a home loan EMI.
This report does not forecast prices or recommend buying or selling any property.

Methodology
Property Nivesh price tracker. Average asking price per square foot for each city and locality we track, a yearly history (the last five years shown), the change in that average over five years, and the gross rental yield (a year’s rent as a share of the price). Averages come from the projects and listings we follow; they are asking prices, not registered sale prices.
Project pages. Starting prices, price ranges, prices per square foot and flat configurations as listed on our project pages, which record what the developer published or what the reports cited on each page say. Flat sizes are counted only where a configuration is one size (2 BHK, not “2 & 3 BHK”); villas, plots, penthouses and duplexes are left out of the flat tables. A median is the middle value: half the listings start below it and half above.
NHB RESIDEX. The city figures the National Housing Bank prints in its national RESIDEX press releases (HPI @ Assessment Prices, built from the values banks and housing finance companies put on homes they lend against, in 50 cities), reproduced as printed with acknowledgement under NHB’s website copyright policy. We do not use NHB’s RESIDEX portal series, which needs NHB’s written permission. NHB RESIDEX is a registered trademark of National Housing Bank.
RERA. New real-estate projects registered with the state RERA authority, counted from its registered-project lists by registration date. Bengaluru Urban and Bengaluru Rural districts, complete calendar years.
Editions. Updated every quarter at this address; each edition is kept as a PDF. This edition uses the tracker as of October 2026 and NHB releases from Q3 2024 to Q2 2026.
How we collect, check and publish research data: Property Nivesh research methodology.
Data sources
- Property Nivesh — price tracker (city and locality averages, yearly history, rental yields) and project pages.
- National Housing Bank — NHB RESIDEX national press releases, quarters ended September 2024 to June 2026, published on the NHB website. NHB RESIDEX is a registered trademark of National Housing Bank.
- Karnataka Real Estate Regulatory Authority (K-RERA) — registered-project lists, Bengaluru Urban and Bengaluru Rural districts.
Limitations
- Asking prices, not registered sale prices. What buyers finally pay can be lower or higher.
- Our project pages cover the projects we follow in Bengaluru, many from large listed developers. They are not a random sample of every home for sale, so the price ranges lean towards newer and bigger projects.
- Developers quote prices on different area bases (carpet, built-up or super area). Compare prices per square foot only on the same basis.
- NHB prints only some cities’ figures each quarter. Where NHB did not print a figure, the tables show a dash; nothing is estimated.
- Rental yields are gross: they leave out maintenance, tax, vacancy and the cost of buying.
Editions and PDFs
This report is updated every quarter at this address. Each edition is kept as a PDF — findings, charts, data tables, methodology and sources for its period.
