India's tech capital: a 43.8-million-passenger airport whose international traffic grew 24% in a year, a metro that crossed a million daily riders the week the Yellow Line opened, and hotel rates rising faster than anywhere else in the country.
Bengaluru runs on the return-to-office cycle: the city-centre CBD prices at 76% occupancy and ₹12.5k rates, Whitefield and the airport corridor chase the IT workforce, and supply has grown 32% since 2019 without breaking the rate story.
The pipeline is dense and brand-new: Hilton lands twice in Whitefield (The Den under LXR and Slohh by Roach under Curio), IHG readies an InterContinental, and the airport belt adds Westin and Marriott flags.
The Bengaluru dossier is complete — tracker plus four urban reads: the airport node, the rail node, the passport table and the money flow.
