Bengaluru Average Rent Per m² 2026

Bengaluru's 2026 market is defined by a tightening supply of premium inventory and a strategic shift toward peripheral mega-townships. While central infrastructure struggles to keep pace with rapid densification, the North and East corridors remain the primary magnets for global capital and high-net-worth individuals. We view the city as a 'Strong Buy' for capital appreciation, though tenants face a challenging landscape with average rents climbing to ₹520.56/m².
