Thanisandra was earlier a village but is now a fully urban locality governed by BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) under the Bangalore Urban District. It falls under BBMP Ward No. 23 and includes older revenue areas such as Thanisandra Village, Rachenahalli, Hennur Bande, and RK Hegde Nagar. The area has grown from small residential layouts into a cluster of high-rise apartments, gated communities, schools, hospitals, and IT offices.
Thanisandra is located in the northern part of Bangalore, close to Airport Road, Bellary Road (NH 44), and the Outer Ring Road. Nagawara Junction, Devanahalli, Yelahanka, Jakkur, HBR Layout, Hebbal, and Hennur are the prominent localities situated close to Thanisandra. It is 15 km from MG Road.
Thanisandra Main Road in North Bangalore has emerged as a popular residential corridor, especially among IT professionals working in Manyata Tech Park. Thanisandra is located just 1.5 to 4 km from Manyata Tech Park, depending on the exact location within the neighbourhood.
Manyata Embassy Business Park is a software technology park situated in Nagawara (near Hebbal) on the Outer Ring Road, spread over 300 acres with a building area of 9.8 million sq ft. Tenant companies include Cognizant, IBM, Rolls-Royce, Philips, Nokia Networks, NXP Semiconductors, Fidelity Investments, Target Corporation, Nvidia, and AXA, among others. Thanisandra Main Road is one of the important roads directly connecting the area to the park.
Bhartiya City in Thanisandra is a popular mixed-use township known for Nikoo Homes, retail spaces, offices, hotels, and entertainment zones. It boosts demand for residential projects around Thanisandra due to lifestyle facilities and job opportunities within walkable distance.
KV Jairam Road, Kempapura Main Road, Thanisandra Main Road, and the Outer Ring Road all provide access to the locality. Thanisandra Main Road has been widened to 100 feet and converted into a commercial hub. It is well served by the Thanisandra Main Road and the Outer Ring Road, with Kempegowda International Airport reachable in approximately 35 minutes and the CBD in about 45 minutes.
An upcoming Metro extension under Phase 2B has a station planned near Nagawara, which will further enhance connectivity, reducing commute times and boosting the area's accessibility. This extension will connect Thanisandra with other parts of Bangalore, especially the central business districts and IT hubs. RT Nagar Bus Depot, Hebbal railway station, Nagawara metro station, and Arabic College metro station further enhance its overall transit options.
The locality's social fabric has matured alongside its residential growth.
According to Anarock, Thanisandra Main Road registered a 67 per cent growth in housing prices over three years, moving from Rs 5,345 per sq ft to Rs 8,900 per sq ft by end-2024. Average monthly rentals on Thanisandra Main Road rose 62 per cent over the same period, reaching Rs 33,200 per month.
Over a longer horizon, flat rates in Thanisandra have appreciated 60.6% in the last three years, 85.4% in the last five years, and 137.5% in the last ten years. Current flat prices in the locality range from Rs 10,500 to Rs 14,400 per sq ft. A higher share of under-construction projects in Thanisandra — around 20.7%, compared to Hebbal's 9.7% — highlights its active development phase.
This growth rate surpasses that of nearby localities like Yelahanka and offers relatively more affordability compared to Hebbal, where prices remain higher.
Godrej Properties has been active in Bangalore for over a decade, steadily expanding its portfolio across prime neighbourhoods. In North Bangalore specifically, its early entries — Godrej Woodsman Estate (Hebbal) and Godrej Platinum (Hebbal) — established the brand's footprint in this corridor. The Bangalore portfolio now spans Devanahalli Airport Road, Whitefield–Budigere Cross, Sarjapur Road, Indiranagar-HAL, Yeshwanthpur, and Thanisandra, where Godrej Woods is the active project.
At the company level, Godrej Properties posted a record booking value of Rs 34,171 crore in FY2026, a 16% year-on-year increase — the highest ever full-year booking value recorded by any listed real estate developer in India. Bangalore alone contributed Rs 8,802 crore in bookings in that fiscal year.
Every Godrej project since 2021 targets IGBC or LEED green-building certification. Prominent residential launches such as Godrej Thanisandra (Godrej Woods) and Prestige Avon further highlight the locality's growing importance in Bengaluru's real estate landscape.
Thanisandra is an area in active transition — that brings both opportunity and the practical realities of ongoing construction. The area is a developing urban zone with modern amenities and good connectivity, but often crowded with traffic. Properties closer to the main roads command higher prices, and those near proposed metro stations see a pricing premium. Buyers comparing sub-localities within Thanisandra should factor in road width, distance from Manyata, and construction-phase delivery timelines when assessing value.
