Marathahalli and Whitefield tops the list in terms of rentals. These two areas are preferred by IT people working in these localities. Staying near IT hubs reduces the commuting time as but also offers state-of-the-art infrastructure.
Indiranagar is no doubt a good locality for rentals because of the close proximity to Namma metro Phase I but the rentals in Indiranagar is little on the higher side. You can get a 1000 sqft apartment within a range of Rs 25,000 to Rs 27,000 per month.
I feel it is better to rent an apartment in Koramangala rather than HSR Layout because of the good connectivity with the city center, good social infrastructure and the status quo attached with it. The demand for renting house is increasing because of the presence of Namma Metro station at Jayanagar, which is about 6 km away.
HSR Layout is one of the preferred locality for rentals because of the connectivity and peaceful surrounding. Moreover HSR Layout falls closer to ORR and is less congested in compare to other localities in Bangalore.
The most preferred locality for renting a house in Bangalore are HSR Layout, Koramangala, Marathahalli, Whitefield and Indira Nagar. The rent of a 1000sqft apartment ranges from Rs 15,000 to Rs 20,000.
