Bharathnagar is a well planned residential layout in the city of Bangalore, India. Located off the arterial Magadi Road and approximately 13 km (8.1 mi) from the Bangalore Central Railway station, this layout was primarily created for the employees of the public sector giant Bharat Electronics Limited. Bharathnagar is divided into Phase 1 & 2. Phase 2 is the larger of the two and has the capacity to accommodate 4000 independent homes, whereas Phase 1 can accommodate 2,000 homes.
