## Why prices should grow about 8.7% a year
- + 6.0%: Start with 6.0% a year: the normal long-run growth of Bengaluru home prices.
- + 0.7%: Add 0.7%: prices here rose 10.6% a year recently (2023-06 to 2026-06). Some of that pace continues, but it fades each year.
- + 0.0%: Prices are still affordable enough that this does not slow growth.
- + 1.6%: Add 1.6%: 9 million sq ft of new offices nearby means more people wanting homes here.
- + 0.3%: Add 0.3%: few unsold homes in the area (15 months of stock), so sellers have the upper hand.
- + 0.1%: Add 0.1% for new roads, metro and water lines, weighted by how likely they are to actually finish: Purple Line Whitefield extension (2023) (operational, 2023); Peripheral Ring Road (planned, 2030); Cauvery Stage V water (construction, 2027).
- + 0.0%: No extra project-level adjustment.
- = 8.7%: Result: about 8.7% a year, so a home worth ₹1.20 Cr today would be worth about ₹1.83 Cr in 5 years. We are 56% confident in the evidence behind this.

## Returns over 8 years

## Exit plans compared
- No interiors, rent unfurnished (8 years): IRR 8.3%, net-wealth CAGR 6.2%, cash in ₹90.9 L, net rent ₹17.3 L, net sale ₹1.54 Cr. Best IRR.
