Corridor guide · North-west Bengaluru

Tumkur Road, Bengaluru:
a buyer’s guide to the
Bagalakunte–Nagasandra corridor.

North-west Bengaluru’s Tumkur Road belt, from Yeshwanthpur through Jalahalli, Bagalakunte and Nagasandra to Madavara, is the city’s oldest industrial heartland turned residential. The Green Line metro now runs the length of it to the Bengaluru International Exhibition Centre, NH-48 leads out to Tumakuru and the Satellite Town Ring Road, and the homes are larger for the money than in the east. This page gives the facts a buyer needs, with a source for each.

Facts reviewed on . Every figure carries a numbered source; distances and travel times are unit-specific and should be tested from the project gate.

Before you buy here

Six things to check
on this corridor.

The questions a careful buyer asks any builder on this road, including us.

  1. Match the RERA number on the certificate with rera.karnataka.gov.in, including the registered name and the phase the certificate covers.
  2. Confirm the khata and the sanctioning authority; Bagalakunte sits inside city limits, and the paper should say which office approved the plan.
  3. Industrial neighbours are part of this corridor: ask what stands on each boundary today and what the zoning allows tomorrow.
  4. NH-48 carries heavy vehicles; test the approach road from the highway at morning and evening peak.
  5. Walk the metro last mile from the gate to the nearest Green Line station at the hour you would use it.
  6. Insist on two dates in writing: the RERA completion date and the builder’s own target. A builder who states both is telling you how it manages time.

What comes next
Before you decide

Questions buyers ask
about this corridor.

Short answers, each tied to a source or to the project page.

Where does the Green Line end on Tumkur Road?

At Madavara (BIEC), after Chikkabidarakallu and Manjunathanagar, on a 3.14 km extension from Nagasandra that opened on 7 November 2024.

Which metro station is nearest to Bagalakunte?

Nagasandra, Dasarahalli and Jalahalli serve the belt; the right one depends on the project gate. Walk it at the hour you would travel.

What is the Satellite Town Ring Road and does it help here?

An 80 km section from Dobbaspet on Tumkur Road to Hoskote has been open since March 2024, linking NH-48 with Ballari Road and the airport side without entering the city. The link to Hosur is expected by late 2026.

Is Tumkur Road an industrial area or a residential one?

Both. Peenya is one of Bengaluru’s oldest industrial estates, and the residential layouts of Bagalakunte, Jalahalli and Nagasandra grew around it. Ask what stands on each boundary of the project you are considering.

Which 5 Elements homes are on Tumkur Road?

Nature’s Lap at Bagalakunte is ongoing, with ready and near-ready homes; Nature’s Nest is planned adjacent to it; further projects on this corridor appear once registered.

Is there a metro station at Nelamangala?

Not yet. The Green Line ends at Madavara (BIEC); Nelamangala lies further out on NH-48. Any home sold as “near Nelamangala metro” is describing a plan, not a station.

Is Tumkur Road north Bengaluru or west Bengaluru?

North-west. The belt runs from Yeshwanthpur and Rajajinagar through Peenya, Jalahalli and Bagalakunte to Nagasandra and Madavara, along NH-48, and is often listed under north Bengaluru areas.

What should I verify before booking on this corridor?

The RERA certificate and phase, the khata and sanctioning authority, the industrial neighbours and zoning, the highway approach, the metro last mile, and both dates in writing.
