Reading the part-year 2026 figures
In the first three quarters of 2026, asking rates stood at about ₹5,944 in Shela and about ₹7,011 in Gota. Compared with the city’s current rate of about ₹6,806 (2025 Q4 to 2026 Q3), Shela remains below it, while Gota’s part-year figure is slightly higher.
South Bopal’s part-year 2026 figure of about ₹8,328 is well above its rates in earlier years. The mix of apartments listed there changed, so the figure does not represent a one-year jump. The current rate of about ₹7,648 is a better guide to sellers’ asking prices today.
What is on offer in each suburb
