Marathalli, grhhh....its one of those typical sheepish areas on the outskirts of the city which one wants to avoid going (unless forced to go to work!). Marred by Traffic, potholed small main roads and ghati crowd, that's 70% of Marathalli. But it is totally glamorized on the periphery with top companies buying spaces all along the outer-ring road - because this road again connects the East and South parts of b'lore all along the periphery.

One noteworthy thing about Marathalli is that it has been rightly or wrongly associated with an area of 'Second's or Factory Outlet stores' being host to a  lot of shops (around 1000 sq feet) of Reebok, Nike, Lee etc.
But 80% of b'lore wouldn't love to visit Marathalli - only those tech coolies staying closer would. Biyani is an ace land picker, all the stores that I have are extremely well placed from a crowd attraction perspective - I wonder what he saw in Marathahalli!

om ji the whoel area is really expensive not coz staples  but coz it is a major IT hub and all top companies are there .Prices are already very high.too much traffic.In a few years the prices will touh the roof.If someone would have bought land there 10 years back at x  it is worth 90x .
