WELCOME TO INDIRANAGAR
Introduction
Tree-lined avenues. Bustling sidewalks. Immaculate old houses. Jazzy pubs. Indiranagar has changed character over the years and how! From being a sleepy suburb in the 1970’s, the neighbourhood is now one of Bangalore’s most coveted places to live in. From jaw-dropping mansions to luxury homes to eco-friendly homes, serenity and urban bliss abound in every corner of Indiranagar.
Deriving its name from the former Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi, Indiranagar has successfully managed to achieve a balance between residential and commercial. Tucked away casually are the broad and quiet tree-lined lanes housing some of the most beautiful bungalows and apartments, both old and new, juxtaposed with the bustling and throbbing energy of the many extravagant retail outlets, restaurants, bars and nightclubs that make up the other half of Indiranagar.
Commute
Indiranagar is fairly well-connected to Bangalore’s Central Business District through the Namma Metro Purple Line. Public transport is efficient through a network of local buses. The Kempegowda International Airport is about 40 kilometres from Indiranagar. In addition, autorickshaws and local cab services such as Ola, Uber, and Meru provide complete assistance at competitive rates.
Lifestyle
Post and understated, Indiranagar is a cosmopolitan representation of Bangalore. Expect a higher cost of living here than in other neighbourhoods of Bangalore. Indiranagar’s dining and restaurant scene is filled by trendy cafes, raunchy pubs, and exclusive cuisines. From Vietnamese to traditional South Indian cuisine, you would be hard-pressed not to find a place for every budget. Locals swear by a convenient mix of commercial brand shops, boutiques, and supermarkets.
