Area Overview
What makes Adugodi special
Adugodi sits on Hosur Road between Koramangala and the Richmond Town side, and its best-known feature is the Bosch campus — a large corporate and R&D presence that has been here for decades.
It is one of the older settlements on this side of the city, denser and less planned than Koramangala, with a mix of long-established housing and newer apartment blocks.
The position is the value: Koramangala is about five minutes, MG Road fifteen, and the Yellow Line metro serves the Hosur Road corridor here.
