 . I stay in the area behind Ecospace. Rentals are around 20-22K + maintenance for a 2 bedroom in a normal apartment complex. In the premium ones with a lot of amenities from bigger builders it will be higher. 1 bedrooms will be difficult to find. There may be the ones where the owner has locked one room with his/her belongings, but the rent will still be high. I saw a notice on a furnished 2 bedroom flat available in the complex I stay (a normal one). If interested, I can check details and PM you. If you can brave some broken pavements and are ready to walk, this is around 15-20 min walk from Ecospace. | |

) The only criteria should be commuting hassles should be the least. Thanks in advance.|

| Re: Relocating to Bangalore Heart welcome to namma Bengaluru  Most of your questions have large open ended answers. One thing I can confidently say, stay as close as to office as much as possible. 15 Km is a V E R Y l o n g distance to commute in Bangalore, especially during peak hours, considering, I've experienced ridden (not driven) in peak hours of Mumbai & Bangalore traffic. Just like there's a motorcycle club in every streets of Bangalore, there's also that many number of schools as well. Most of them are...less said better (in the entire nation, not just Bangalore) Vehicle, yes you can drive Punto & drive it legally for up to an year. If you love the car, start the transfer process, otherwise, try to welcome a new car member in the family (RTO's acche din is not visible even in the horizon) |

 I would suggest you to look for accommodation in apartments on Hennur road close to the Dodda Gubbi area like Salarpuria Gold Summit, Salarpuria Aspire etc. This will also be close to hospitals and CBSE schools like the Euro school (I think it's the zee group's school). This will also be about 10-15km max from Shell office campus and very relaxed traffic conditions at least now. Not too far from the airport as well. Hennur road on the other side connects easily and quickly to the city centre as well. Coincidentally I know someone who stays in that area, works at Shell and their children go to Euro school  Another option for your accommodation would be to look at Ozone Urbana which is a massive housing + commercial campus that also has a National Public school in their campus (CBSE). However, this place is still developing and nearer to the airport just off the highway and you may not have as many closer options for shopping, etc like Hennur road. On the car, you can use it in Karnataka for a year and after that pay life time tax here, which may not be worth it. Do consider selling off your car in Mumbai and buying a pre-worshipped or new car in Bangalore. *Look up the map and you will see that the place on Hennur road I'm suggesting is the alternative road towards airport and against the normal direction of office traffic in Bangalore and hence not like driving inside the city/towards areas housing the IT corporates.

Yelahanka is the right choice IMHO. The office route you need to take is the Hyderabad / airport highway with no pain points (except toll payment every day). I can surely tell so because my wife used to do this daily commute earlier. Plus, it is the closest developed area possible near your office. Yelahanka now has a mall and Central with movie theatres, good connectivity in terms of bus stops, railway station, proximity to airport etc - and it's still not as congested as the city (or even considered a part of the city by a good majority of Bangaloreans. PS: Considering FIAT resale value, I would suggest to bring the car rather than sell it. Road tax, if you opt to pay, should cost between 50-60k approx. Will calculate and share the amount later if you are not able to find the details (At present travelling). | |

Yelahanka is a logical choice but I don't think there are any good hospitals very close. The closest good hospital is Columbia Asia at Hebbal. So if hospital is a priority, you need to move closer to Hebbal, which is kind of where the city begins. You will get good accomodation and schools along with traffic Quote:
