( WHAT THE MONEY RENTS · 30 SEP 2026 · UPDATED 30 SEP 2026 · 1 MIN )

₹1 lakh in Bengaluru: what you can rent, area by area.

At ₹1,00,000 a month, owners were asking that on 30 September 2026 for Whitefield (a 3 BHK in 3 societies), Bellandur (a 3 BHK in 7 societies), Mahadevapura (a 3 BHK in 6 societies) and Sarjapur Road (a 4 BHK in 2 societies).

( SCROLL ↓ )

Each area is read from the public listings of the societies with a page here; a society counts when its asking rent for the size sits within 15% of ₹1,00,000.

The same money buys a different size in each area: a 4 BHK in Sarjapur Road and a 3 BHK in Whitefield, Bellandur and Mahadevapura. That is the trade a renter makes with geography before any home is seen: the larger home is usually the longer commute.

The typical ask for that size in each area, the middle of the societies' own medians rounded to the nearest ₹500: Whitefield ₹75,000 for a 3 BHK, Bellandur ₹81,500 for a 3 BHK, Mahadevapura ₹87,500 for a 3 BHK and Sarjapur Road ₹95,000 for a 4 BHK. Deposits asked near this budget ran to 3.7 months, 3.9 months, 4 months and 5 months of rent at the median, an owner's opening position rather than what was agreed.

Sthãna lists 6 homes within this budget today, on sthana.co.in/homes. Send the budget, the size and the office, and the reply names what exists and the one compromise.

Read on 30 September 2026 from the public listings on Square Yards and NoBroker, one society at a time. Asking rents move; this page is regenerated after each monthly read.

Every figure on this page is an owner's asking rent read from a public listing on the date given, named by society; none is a rent that was agreed. A society is named only with a listing behind it, and a page exists only where the read could answer the budget.

Send this page to whoever you are moving with; a home is usually chosen by two people at eleven at night. The next step is one message to the desk with the budget, the size and the office.

The read knows the asking rent. The desk knows the home.
