Yelahanka, Bangalore

Yelahanka is one of Bangalore's oldest and most storied localities, with roots that trace back to the city's founder. What most people don't know about Yelahanka is that it was the origin of Bengaluru, and Kempe Gowda, the man who founded Bengaluru, established Yelahanka as the city's first capital. Today the area is split into two well-defined halves, Yelahanka Old Town and Yelahanka New Town, each offering a distinct mix of legacy neighbourhoods and modern gated communities.

Over the last decade, Yelahanka has shifted from a quiet satellite town into a full-fledged residential and commercial hub. Yelahanka, once a quaint town on the outskirts of Bangalore, has evolved into one of the city's fastest-growing suburbs, strategically positioned along National Highway 44, providing excellent connectivity to Kempegowda International Airport, Hebbal, and the central business districts of the city. This has drawn a steady pipeline of premium developers, including SOBHA, to the corridor.

On pricing, Yelahanka continues to offer relative affordability compared to core Bangalore while delivering strong appreciation. Flat prices in Yelahanka, Bangalore are in the range of Rs 8,250-14,050 per square feet, with average property rates per square feet for flats at around Rs 10,450 per sq ft. Flat rates in Yelahanka, Bangalore changed by 20.1% in the last 1 year, 57.1% in the last 3 years, and 88.3% in the last 5 years.

Infrastructure upgrades are further boosting the locality's appeal. The metro corridor, slated for operation in June 2026, is backed by a ₹15,611 crore budget, and once operational, travel time from Hebbal to the Airport will drop to 20-30 minutes. Combined with wide arterial roads and a well-established social infrastructure, Yelahanka is increasingly seen as a self-sufficient, future-ready residential destination in North Bangalore.
