Koramangala 5th Block is the commercial and social heart of Koramangala — home to Forum Mall, the Sony World junction and the densest cluster of startups, restaurants and pubs in Bangalore. It is the most expensive part of the layout, with flats around ₹16,000–22,000/sq ft.
Koramangala 5th Block (560095) is the layout’s commercial core around Forum Mall and the Sony World junction, and Bangalore’s densest startup and nightlife cluster. Flats trade around ₹16,000–22,000/sq ft — the highest in Koramangala.
5th Block is the address most people mean when they say Koramangala. Forum Mall, the Sony World junction and a relentless run of restaurants, pubs, coworking spaces and startup offices make it the busiest, most commercial part of the layout.
Its appeal is being at the centre of India’s startup scene: founders, investors and employees cluster here, and everything — food, offices, retail, nightlife — is within a few hundred metres. Residential stock sits above and behind the commercial frontage.
For buyers it is a trophy-and-investor address rather than a quiet home — expect the highest prices in Koramangala, constant activity and severe parking pressure, offset by unmatched liquidity and rental demand.
| Config | Monthly rent | Buy (ready-to-move) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 BHK | ₹26k–40k | ₹75 L–1.1 Cr |
| 2 BHK | ₹38k–60k | ₹1.35–2.2 Cr |
| 3 BHK | ₹58k–95k | ₹2.1–3.5 Cr |
5th Block flats trade around ₹16,000–22,000/sq ft, the highest band in Koramangala — you pay for Forum, the startup cluster and prime commercial frontage.
Rental demand is the strongest in the layout with minimal vacancy, holding yields near 3% despite the very high capital base.
