Updated 30 October 2026. A headline number and an area number come from different reports, so we show each with its source and period. For why the city-level reports disagree, read Bangalore Property Prices Q3 2026: 14.5% or 8%? Data Compared
How much did Bangalore property prices rise in Q3 2026?
Three reports, three answers. All three show a rise, and none shows a citywide fall.
- NoBroker: ₹11,293 per sq ft against ₹9,863 a year earlier, up 14.5%, the highest of six markets (Aurum PropTech, 26 October 2026). The same report had Bengaluru at 16% in Q2.
- Knight Frank: up 11% a year. It says this likely partly reflects dearer stock entering its inventory-weighted average (Gulf Today, 24 October 2026).
- ANAROCK: ₹9,600 per sq ft base selling price on super built-up area, up 2% in the quarter and 8% in the year (ANAROCK Q3 2026).
Which areas in Bangalore gained the most?
Knight Frank gives the widest area table we found. These are price changes over the 12 months to June 2026, so they do not cover the July to September quarter (Knight Frank H1 2026, as relayed by PropNewz, 9 October 2026):
- KR Puram: +20%
- Yelahanka: +18%
- Tumkur Road: +16%
- Marathahalli: +15%
- Whitefield: +14%
- Malleswaram: +13%
- Hebbal: +11%
- Electronic City and Hennur: +10%
- Bannerghatta Road: +7%
- Thanisandra and Kanakapura Road: +6%
- Sarjapur Road: +3%
- Langford Town and Lavelle Road: 0%
What happened in the July to September quarter by area?
Movement was much smaller. ANAROCK's quoted base rates for Q3 2026, with the change on the previous quarter, were:
- Sarjapur Road: ₹11,730, up 1%
- Whitefield: ₹11,030, up 2%
- Thanisandra Main Road: ₹10,550, up 2%
- Mysore Road: ₹8,180, up 2%
- Electronic City: ₹7,570, up 2%
Why do some areas show a big rise and others almost none?
A high percentage can come from a changing mix of homes, not just the same flat getting dearer. When a large premium project lists in a low-priced area, the average jumps. Knight Frank itself flags this effect for its citywide number. That is our reading of the area table too: treat a 20% figure as a signal to check the rates, not as proof that every flat there rose 20%.
Asking prices also tell a calmer story. Square Yards shows East Bangalore at ₹13,550 per sq ft, down 1.3% in a year, and North at ₹11,400, up 2.3%, for September 2026. Those are portal asking prices, new and resale together, so they are not comparable with the reports above.
What does this mean for a buyer?
- Use an area rate, not a citywide percentage. Our arithmetic: a 1,500 sq ft flat at ANAROCK's rates is about ₹1.76 crore on Sarjapur Road and about ₹1.14 crore in Electronic City, before GST and registration.
- A slower area can still be the better buy if unsold stock gives you room. ANAROCK counted about 80,200 unsold homes in the city, up 35% in a year, and East Bengaluru holds 48% of them. For the supply side, read North Bangalore Launches Up 121%: Q3 2026 Zone-by-Zone Data
- Ask whether a quoted price is base or all-in, and carpet or super built-up.
