Electronic City Housing Guide for IT Professionals
Home to Infosys, Wipro, TCS and hundreds of other firms, Electronic City is South Bangalore’s IT powerhouse. For tech professionals, it offers something the city centre can’t: genuinely affordable rents within minutes of the office.
Why renters choose Electronic City
- Walk or shuttle to work: live minutes from Phase 1 & 2 campuses.
- Lower rents: your money goes noticeably further than in central Bangalore.
- Elevated expressway & upcoming metro: connectivity keeps improving.
- Modern gated apartments: plenty of amenity-rich new builds.

Phase 1 vs Phase 2
Phase 1 is the older, more established side with markets and amenities. Phase 2 and the Neeladri Road belt have many newer gated communities. Pick the side closest to your campus to minimise the commute.
Who it suits
IT employees who want maximum value and a short commute. If you’d rather be central and don’t mind paying more, compare HSR Layout or Koramangala.
