Bengaluru Techie Finds Rs 15,000 Monthly AC Flat After Initial Doubts
A Bengaluru techie, Ritik Gulabrani, shared how he found an air-conditioned flat in Bellandur for Rs 15,000 per month with a Rs 30,000 deposit after months of searching. This came after the co-founder of rental platform Flent, Rishabh Agnihotri, had told him such budget flats were unavailable in the area. Gulabrani credited a Facebook group connecting tenants and landlords directly for helping him secure the flat, sparking discussion about rental options in Bengaluru.
