Looking for a PG here?

Tell us your budget and move-in date. We come back with a shortlist, availability and the real monthly cost including deposit and meals.

How do you choose between a PG and a rented flat?

A PG makes sense when you want to move in this week, do not want to furnish anything, and would rather not sign an eleven-month lease. The flat wins on cost and privacy once three or four people split it and once you can absorb a ten-month deposit and the furnishing bill. The PG wins on flexibility, on not having to find flatmates, and on not dealing with a landlord.

The downside of the PG model that operators do not advertise: you have very little legal protection. Most PG arrangements are not registered rent agreements, so the tenancy protections that apply to a leave and licence agreement often do not apply to you. Your deposit, your notice period and your eviction terms rest on whatever you signed, which in this segment is frequently a single page.

Common questions about PGs in Kolkata

How many PGs are there in Kolkata?

PropIQ lists 966 paying guest and coliving properties in Kolkata, spread across 159 localities and covering 14,046 beds in total. Supply is concentrated: the five densest localities are Salt Lake City (168), New Town (76), Bhowanipore (42), Jadavpur (42), Dum Dum (41).

Where are the women-only PGs in Kolkata?

The localities with the most women-only properties are Salt Lake City (56), Jadavpur (28), Bhowanipore (23), Ballygunge (21), Tollygunge (17). In total 393 of the 966 properties we list in Kolkata take women only.

Which PGs in Kolkata provide food?

523 of the 966 properties we list in Kolkata serve meals — roughly 54%. The localities with the most are Salt Lake City (149), New Town (58), Bhowanipore (28), Dum Dum (23), Tollygunge (19). Where meals are included, check whether the plan covers all three, whether it runs on Sundays, and whether non-vegetarian food is served or even allowed on the premises.

What room types do PGs in Kolkata offer?

Across the 966 properties here, 731 offer a 2-sharing room, 487 offer 3-sharing and 348 offer a private room. Most offer several, so the choice usually exists inside one building rather than between buildings.

Why does PropIQ not show PG rents for Kolkata?

Because the pricing in our source survey is several years old. A stale rent is worse than no rent: it anchors you to a number nobody will honour and makes the whole page look authoritative when it is not. We would rather publish what has held up — who each property takes, meals, room types and facilities — and tell you to get the current rate from the property itself.

What deposit should I expect to pay at a PG?

One to two months of rent is the usual convention in this segment, against ten or eleven months in a rented flat. That is market practice rather than a figure from our data. Get the refund terms in writing before you pay, including notice period and what counts as damage — a deposit withheld at exit for ordinary wear is the single most common complaint in this segment, and a dated inventory with photographs on move-in day settles almost all of it.

What should I check before paying anything?

Water supply and its source, whether the building has power backup, how many people actually share the bathroom you will use, the gate-closing time, whether guests are allowed, and who is responsible if the geyser fails. Visit once in the evening when residents are back — a PG at 11am tells you very little about what it is like at 9pm.

Why there are no rents on these pages. The pricing in our source survey is several years old. Publishing it would give you a number to anchor on that no operator would honour today, which is worse than publishing nothing, so we have left it out entirely rather than dress up stale figures as current. What is here — who each property takes, meals, room types, facilities and house rules — changes far more slowly and is still worth having. For current rates, ask the property or send us the shortlist request above.

How this directory is compiled. Property records come from PropIQ field surveys and operator submissions, deduplicated by property. We publish the property count behind every figure so you can judge how much weight it carries. Availability and house rules change — confirm with the property before you visit. We do not publish owner or manager contact details.
