A Deccan Herald report says a Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) notification dated 12 October sets rewards for information about alleged occupation of BDA properties and cases linked to forged documents. The highest reported tier is ₹4 lakh. Asianet Newsable also reports the schedule. BestProp.ai could not retrieve the underlying order, so the terms below are attributed to those reports.

What reward amounts do the reports list?
The reported tiers are ₹50,000 for a 20 × 30 ft site, ₹1 lakh for a 30 × 40 ft site, ₹2 lakh for a 40 × 60 ft site, and ₹4 lakh for a 50 × 80 ft site or a multi-storey building. Deccan Herald says payment follows reverification and informant identities are kept confidential; Asianet Newsable says officials check submitted information and supporting documents before deciding whether a tip qualifies. The original notice was not available for independent review.
What does the announcement tell a property buyer?
The reports do not specify a submission channel, deadline, or full eligibility test. They also do not identify a particular property. A reported tip-reward scheme is not evidence that a named site is encroached, nor does it establish that property’s title or current status.
For a separate BDA property process, see BestProp.ai’s coverage of the Authority’s October bulk-land auction. That article concerns auction lots, not the reported reward scheme.
What is the maximum reported BDA reward?
The highest reported tier is ₹4 lakh for a 50 × 80 ft site or a multi-storey building. The original order and complete qualifying conditions were not retrieved.

Asianet Newsable’s 16 October report was reviewed directly. BestProp.ai did not locate the BDA order in its official-site search.
