Mailasandra / Kengeri, Bengaluru — Rent & Buy Guide 2026
Kengeri Bus Terminal Metro Station is the largest multimodal transit hub on the Purple Line's western stretch. Opened on 30 August 2021, this elevated station sits directly above the Kengeri TTMC (Travel Terminal cum Metro Centre), creating a seamless metro-to-bus transfer that no other station in the western corridor offers. KSRTC buses to Mysuru depart from the TTMC below, BMTC feeder buses fan out across the western suburbs, and Kengeri Railway Station (suburban rail) is just 550 metres northwest — three transit modes within a 2-minute walk. R.V. College of Engineering (1.7 km) and Global Village Tech Park (1.5 km) anchor the area's student and IT workforce. Two projects — Casagrand Aquene and Habitat Iluminar — are both verified at just 0.8 km from the station, making them among the closest gated communities to any metro station in western Bangalore. Prices start from ₹25 lakh for a 1BHK (Casagrand Aquene, RERA-registered) and scale to ₹1.35 crore for premium 3BHKs. The Purple Line now runs end-to-end from here to Whitefield in 71 minutes with no interchange, making this a viable base for IT professionals across both eastern and western Bangalore's tech parks.

Who Lives Near Kengeri Bus Terminal Metro Station
Kengeri Bus Terminal's housing market is shaped by its triple-transit advantage and two institutional anchors. R.V. College of Engineering (established 1963, 1.7 km from the station) generates a constant stream of student renters — PG accommodations and shared 1BHK flats dominate the sub-₹12,000 rental segment. Global Village Tech Park and surrounding IT offices draw working professionals who value the metro's direct connection to Whitefield and Majestic. Before 2021, the area was bus-dependent — Mysore Road traffic meant 90+ minute commutes to the city centre. The metro collapsed that to 26 minutes, and property prices responded: Kengeri's residential real estate appreciated over 60% in five years. Today three buyer profiles dominate. Budget-conscious first-time buyers are drawn by 1BHK apartments from ₹25 lakh in RERA-registered projects like Casagrand Aquene. Young families with dual incomes prefer the 2BHK segment at ₹40–90 lakh in projects like Habitat Iluminar and Provident Equinox, which offer 30+ amenities at a fraction of the cost of Indiranagar or Koramangala equivalents. And value investors are accumulating in the ₹70 lakh–₹1 crore range, betting that the TTMC integration and end-to-end Purple Line operation will continue driving appreciation. The rental market is maturing as new projects deliver — 2BHK semi-furnished units now command ₹14,000–₹22,000, competitive with Banashankari but with direct metro access the older suburb can't match.
