Bengaluru Sees 80 per cent Surge In Sarjapur, Thanisandra Prices

19 Aug 2025 CW Team

Bengaluru’s Sarjapur Road and Thanisandra Main Road have recorded nearly 80 per cent growth in average housing prices over the past three and a half years, according to data from real estate consultancy Anarock.

On Sarjapur Road, average housing prices rose 79 per cent to Rs 10,800 per sq ft in April–June 2025, up from Rs 6,050 per sq ft at the end of 2021. Thanisandra Main Road, in North Bengaluru, witnessed an 81 per cent increase to Rs 9,700 per sq ft from Rs 5,345 per sq ft during the same period.

Anarock attributed Sarjapur Road’s growth to its established role in the city’s eastern IT corridor and the upcoming Red Line Namma Metro connecting Hebbal to Sarjapur. Thanisandra’s rise, it said, stems from its proximity to Manyata Tech Park and improved road connectivity, attracting mid- to upper-income IT professionals. Rental values in both locations also jumped 81 per cent.

Across 14 micro-markets in seven major cities — Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, NCR, Mumbai Metropolitan Region, Kolkata, and Chennai — capital values rose between 24 and 139 per cent, while rentals climbed 32 to 81 per cent from end-2021 to Q2 2025.

Industry leaders highlighted the limited supply and strategic infrastructure as key drivers of the surge. Karishmah Siingh of Sattva Group said the ORR–Airport metro and Sarjapur–Hebbal corridor have created a strong value proposition. Sterling Developers’ Anjana Sastri stressed the role of connectivity in North Bengaluru’s rapid growth, while Angad Bedi of BCD Group noted the development of Grade A offices alongside residential and retail spaces.

Bhavesh Kothari of Property First Realty added that Sarjapur has become a hub for startups and unicorns, while Thanisandra attracts multinational corporations, making both corridors highly appealing for retail investors.
