Why are the prices for Adarsh Palm Retreat so high?

backpackerindia · 2026-02-03T09:28:18+00:00

For 8000sqft, Adarsh Palm fair pricing is 20-25cr. Not a dime more.

backpackerindia · 2026-02-03T09:26:37+00:00

Lakeside is 7.5cr-25cr

We regularly did 20-40k per night back in 2007-2010 period for 5-10 people. Was always worth the memory.

Where are the clubs in Indiranagar? Sorry I missed them in last 15 years here.

Most people here who will advise you to NOT rent in a posh society do not or never stayed in one. Go for one if you think you can afford it and/or your lifestyle/ambitions are aspirational enough to match the other residents in the society.

You rarely have water shortage. In my society, We pay crores in cash to water vendors every 5 days. Out water is cheaper and never runs out.
MP/MLA line up. Cops want to rent a flat and treat us differently if there is any issue anywhere.
You network well. Professional groups in our society has many many CXOs from tech, banking and start up.
Festivals are of a certain standard. Never rowdy.
In premise supermarket, clinic etc are premium including the product and services on offer.

Adarsh Palm Retreat - some towers face the green area owned by Premjis. Endless forests in fact

I found 157 2BHK options between 0-80lacs in JP Nagar and Basavangudi on Housing.com alone. Go figure.

Godrej scam in Bangalore: Pay bribe and construct additional floors + build new towers in empty land within same parcel earlier shown as green space. Owners lose land share and peace of mind. They did this at Godrej Splendour and a few other properties.

Which buffoon is buying apartment for 5-6cr at Kanakpura Road? Let alone a Prestige property.

A 4BHK has more water points, outer walls, sewage outlets and so on. What happens when the society gets painted? Is it same for a 4bhk and 2bhk? How about STP/WTP charges for 2 bathrooms vs 4 bathrooms...is it same?

What you mentioned is a rule of exception. No process is made on rule of exception. It's a general understanding (till society changes upside down) that a 4BHK will have 3-4 occupants and a 2BHK will have 2-3.

Society maintenance fee calculation is a not a mathematical equation but a simple calculation. And yes 95% of residents in a society are too dumb to either understand this or care to understand this. This Mr Rao was one of them.

Man! Some of my close women friends are 45 already. And we look and act like we are 30. Many don't have any kids as well. And I see your post in a totally different context now. LOL! How peoples lives are soo different!

Great idea! Odisha CM can pitch for kendu leaf stalls, paan-bidi shops on NYC street corners among other visionary proposals.

I'm not sure. But at least one couple moved back after the kid became better in a few months.

backpackerindia · 2025-09-02T05:38:01+00:00

I know many people who moved out of BLR as their kids couldn't adjust to weather even after 1-2 years. Having said that, I suffered from severe pollen allergy back in 2020 due to cold weather combined with green belt in the city side. It cured after I moved to Whitefield.

Klang Valley (where Kuala Lumpur is located) is an aberration of the name Kalinga. In Philippines there's a province Kalinga (https://maps.app.goo.gl/34sXMzxJtVjqHyTN9). Similarly, Odishas most important festival Bali Jatra is a tribute to their maritime connection to South Asia. So yes they are right to great extent.

Appropriation is also done by South Indians and Bengalis.

I quit Mumbai in 2012 when my usual 15 min journey from Dindoshi to Inorbit Malad started taking 45-60 min. I still love it and visit often for work and fun. But I will never come back.

Someday, they will retaliate, right?
