## Why prices should grow about 10.1% a year
- + 6.0%: Start with 6.0% a year: the normal long-run growth of Bengaluru home prices.
- + 1.3%: Add 1.3%: prices here rose 14.5% a year recently (2023-06 to 2026-06). Some of that pace continues, but it fades each year.
- − 0.5%: Subtract 0.5%: at ₹10,650 per sq ft, fewer families can afford to buy here, which slows further rises.
- + 2.7%: Add 2.7%: 14 million sq ft of new offices nearby means more people wanting homes here.
- + 0.0%: Supply and demand are balanced here (18 months of unsold stock).
- + 0.2%: Add 0.2% for new roads, metro and water lines, weighted by how likely they are to actually finish: Blue Line KR Puram–Hebbal–Airport (construction, 2027); Satellite Town Ring Road (construction, 2028).
- + 0.5%: Add 0.5% for this project itself: unfinished homes are worth more once they are complete.
- = 10.1%: Result: about 10.1% a year, so a home worth ₹1.03 Cr today would be worth about ₹1.67 Cr in 5 years. We are 56% confident in the evidence behind this.

## Exit plans compared
