- This highlights natural light becoming a premium rental feature.

High rent prices in Bengaluru continue to astonish residents, with even modest homes subject to surprising costs. A recent incident highlighted this trend when a woman was informed that a flat's rent was set at Rs 80,000 due to its exposure to sunlight. This news, shared on social media, quickly garnered attention and ignited discussions about the city's increasingly expensive rental landscape.
The woman expressed disbelief that natural light, a basic aspect of a home, was being considered an "extra" and factored into a significantly higher rent. This situation points to a broader shift where conventional housing amenities are now being viewed as premium offerings in Bengaluru's competitive rental market, pushing prices to unprecedented levels for even simple features.
