What counts as a villa?
A villa is an independent home, usually 2,500 to 5,000 sq ft or larger, with premium finishes and often in a gated community. The construction cost is the built-up area times a per-sq-ft rate, which for villas usually sits in the premium to luxury range.

At premium quality (₹2,700 to 3,300 per sq ft):
| Built-up area | Premium cost range |
|---|---|
| 2,500 sq ft | ₹68 to 83 L |
| 3,000 sq ft | ₹81 to 99 L |
| 3,500 sq ft | ₹95 L to 1.16 Cr |
| 4,000 sq ft | ₹1.08 to 1.32 Cr |
| 5,000 sq ft | ₹1.35 to 1.65 Cr |

Villa budgets are unusually sensitive to ground conditions, because the foundation is a bigger share of the total. Compare the low-lying pockets of Hebbal with the rocky belt along Kanakapura Road, or see all areas.
