^^ Thanks.

So it seems Marathalli suits my purpose as far as accy 4 and all iflex offices are concerned. All of them are nearby that area.

Any areas near Marathalli which I can look out for, since it seems Marathalli would be expensive.

And Tata Indicom over there in Bang is provided via Router rite, not via MetroEthernet like some parts of mum.
 
Well Great to knw ur coming to Bangalore..

1]Traffice - Sucks if u own a car [Past 11pm is very drivable before that fat chance u can get anywhere on time]

2] Bangalore is pretty safe..i myself have had rides at 1am -4am have not seen anything i havent seen before

3]I think u wud be better off at HSR layout so ur near work and play.
 
^^ Any idea of the rental rates at HSR layout?

and areas where rental is not so expensive near Brookefields, CV RAMAN and Whitefield

Marathalli seems to be the perfect spot and that is why it seems that it'll be the most expensive no?

How about Bomlur, Airport road and HSR layout?

And if some one can temme the approx km from marathalli to cv raman nagar, along with approx time taken on bike/auto will appreciate it, cause then I can do an approx using google earth for any other area to my office loaction(s)
 
Cv Raman nagar is approximately 4 km from marthahalli , should take some 5-10 mins to reach.The Rents in Marthahali ranges from 3k - 5k for 1-2 bhk flats. Its a Decent Place . HSR is decent too but the rent will be on d higher side.

Traffic in bangalore is not that big of a problem if you have a bike. But if you don't , you are screwed. The BTM buses during peak hours are horrible to say the least.

Night Life is pretty damn good. But again unlike delhi you won't find a bus after 10 pm which means you gotta have some vehicle with you. But seriously if you are in bangalore you have to see the night life, its great.

Food is a major problem here. There are definately some really good restaurants but for daily needs you are gonna have a tough time if you are a northie. Although start with south indian food , you are gonna love Idli dosa for a few weeks before you start absolutely hating it. If you have some andhra or bengali restaurants nearby to your house then you maybe in luck.

I really don't know about crime but i have not witnessed anything of such , sure there are some ugly fights and all but thats everywhere then infact i find bangalore to be a much safer place then Delhi. Just be sure to venture in a group for night outs.

Internet is not a problem if you live in a decent locality.For all your PC needs there is S.P road just like nehru place in delhi. And bangalore is decently big not as huge as delhi but still can take a while to explore the whole city.

Hope this helped. Best of Luck. :)
 
AFAIK HSR layout is not near whitefield. Stick to your plan of areas around Marathalli.

Most of the peeps I know (who work in & around whitefield) stay in Whitefield, Domlur, CV Raman nagar and in couple of km stretches over the ring road from marathalli (ive no clue of the name of the areas though).
 
I'm at CV Raman Nagar and my office at Eco Space too :)

takes me 20 mins one way trip. best part no signals in my way(free left all the way :D)

rent around here is like 4-5k for 1BHK and 6-8k for 2BHK. Marthahalli should be cheaper. If you're going for iFlex better stay at Marthahalli as crossing the signal is a big pain.
 
Are Airtel/Tata Indicom (not the Metro ethernet) available in Marathalli?

What Signal corossing? Does the signal crossing come b/w marathalli and an Iflex office?

How is the Domlur area?

I think,he was refering to the six lane crossing at marthalli junction.

Domlur area is quite posh .Lots of IT companies are there in this area.:)

I'm not so sure on this one. It used to be good..like 10 yrs ago.

Booze is half the price in Delhi and they stay open till 3am instead of the 12-1am shit here.

This is now sleepy town, the only thing good about it, is the weather.

You can party if you want, if you're prepared to drive out of the city limits.
 
heh yeah..still got shutdown to deal with dude, unless u want to hike out to the city limits.

..point being u should not have to do this..

from what i've heard booze prices in Delhi are half those here...

all combine to make this a small image of what it was in the past.

What are the prices there :P

Always thought it would be cheaper then here....

Anyway back to the point, I have pretty much decided that I'd be staying at/near Marathalli as this area seems to be the center point to all my offices and Accy 4

So, how is this area, I man what are the power failures like, water problems?

And Internet....any chance I can get BSNL there? ofcourse if not Airtel (no double speed there...sigh) or Tata Indicom router based connection are available at Marathalli right?
 
Airtel is available at Marthahalli , Its a decent place , not very posh but not dirty also.It has a decent market including all the major brands showrooms like rbk , lewis etc. Oh and if you are a movie buff innovative multiplex is just round the corner :D
