What budget do I need for a 1BHK, 2BHK or 3BHK in Bangalore?

Costs & deposits · answered from real data shared by Bangalore renters

Short answer: Typical (median) rents in Bangalore are about ₹16,000 for a 1BHK, ₹32,000 for a 2BHK and ₹55,000 for a 3BHK. Flat-hunters on bengaluru.rent often budget below that — the median 2BHK seeker budget is ₹24,990 — which is why searches take longer than expected.

2 BHK₹32,000₹24,9903,478
3 BHK₹55,000₹40,0001,947

Rent = what tenants actually pay. Seeker budget = what active flat-hunters on bengaluru.rent say they can spend (2BHK/3BHK budgets are often per-person for shared flats).

Rents vary a lot by area — a 2BHK in Koramangala or Indiranagar costs far more than one in Electronic City. Use rent in Bangalore by area and BHK or the monthly Bengaluru Rent Index to set a realistic budget for your area, and consider a flatmate to split a bigger flat.
