Factors for Growth in the Past

Until a few decades ago, Khandagiri was known to be a more of a retreat due to the historic caves adjacent to the place. However, due to the development in infrastructure and inflow of people from other parts of the city, Khandagiri has evolved into a first home destination.

The greenery surrounding the locality is one of the biggest reasons why Khandagiri became one of the most sought after residential localities in Bhubaneswar. Khandagiri's growth was also driven on by good infrastructure, wide roads, and basic amenities like water and sewerage.

Residential & Commercial Markets

The majority of the residential properties for sale in Khandagiri are independent houses, followed by apartments. The price of apartments in Khandagiri  has risen considerably over the last 5 years. The price of apartments in Khandagiri has remained the same, more or less, since July 2012. The prices have stayed in the Rs 30,000-30,500 per sq. m. bracket. The same cannot be said about residential plots and independent houses in Khandagiri, the prices of which have fluctuated wildly over the last couple of years.

Commercial Market Trends

Khandagiri is witnessing a lot of activity on the commercial front as well. Several new commercial projects have been proposed to come up in the locality. The Khandagiri-Chandaka Main Road is an instance of an upcoming area for commercial activity.

Major Challenges

One of the major challenges the locality faces is traffic management. In Khandagiri Square, especially, the large number of shopping establishments means that vehicles are parked on the roads, congesting the roads and causing major traffic snarls. Another civic challenge is the absence of good drainage systems, due to which there are waterlogging problems.

Factors for Growth in the Future

Over the past decade, the real estate market in Khandagiri has shown buoyancy. With the rise in residential and commercial activity in this region, a lot of development in economic, social, and social infrastructure is expected to take place. The IT sector is also swiftly gaining ground, and is bound to provide job opportunities to people from different parts of the city.

There are also a few road-widening projects planned to decongest traffic. This will further help the locality’s infrastructure and, in turn, improve the real estate sector.
