# K Shivarama Karanth Layout registration closes with 14,639 sign-ups 2026-10-31T23:56:32+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Bengaluru: The registration and fee payment process for new sites in Dr K Shivarama Karanth Layout by the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) closed on Saturday, 31 October 2026. New registrations on the BDA website have been disabled, but applicants who registered and paid within the deadline can still complete their final submission. A total of 14,639 registrations were recorded, with 9,532 initial deposits paid and 9,150 completed applications. The BDA will need two days to consolidate the data after the final submission process ends. The exact number of valid applications will be known only after that period. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The gap between initial deposits (9,532) and completed applications (9,150) suggests that nearly 400 applicants paid the fee but did not finish the process. Those who did submit will now wait for the BDA to consolidate the data over two days before the final count of eligible applicants is released. The layout’s popularity is evident from the 14,639 registrations, though the actual contest for sites will depend on how many complete applications survive scrutiny. ## Coverage - deccanherald.com Led with the closure date and raw figures, no commentary or spin This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
