You may also encounter <em>namaste<\/em>, with the palms brought together in front of the chest, particularly in more traditional or formal settings. If someone greets you this way, returning the gesture is perfectly appropriate.<\/p>\n<h6>Meetings<\/h6>\n<p>It is quite normal for the first few minutes of a meeting to be spent talking about something other than the business at hand. A coffee, a question about how someone&#8217;s day is going or a little conversation about Bengaluru can be part of building the relationship rather than time being wasted before the &#8220;real&#8221; meeting begins.<\/p>\n<h6>Dress Code<\/h6>\n<p>There isn&#8217;t one Bengaluru business uniform. A technology start-up may be perfectly happy with jeans and a shirt, while a meeting with a bank, law firm or senior corporate team calls for something considerably smarter. For a first meeting, smart business-casual is usually a safe middle ground.<\/p>\n<h6>Relationships<\/h6>\n<p>Getting to know people is an important part of doing business in Bengaluru. Don&#8217;t be surprised if a meeting starts with a coffee and a bit of conversation before anyone gets down to business. Asking about someone&#8217;s day or chatting about the city is often just part of getting to know each other.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.8&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<style><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->\/* =========================================================<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->   TRAVEL TIP<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->========================================================= *\/<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.travel-tip {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  margin: 20px 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  padding: 16px 18px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  background: #fff8e8;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  border-left: 5px solid #f4b400;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  border-radius: 12px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  box-shadow: 0 4px 12px rgba(0, 0, 0, .05);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.travel-tip h5 {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  margin: 0 0 8px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-size: 1.4rem;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-weight: 700;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  color: #5B8CB1;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.travel-tip p {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  margin: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-size: 1.1rem;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  line-height: 1.5;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  color: #444;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/style>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<div class=\"travel-tip\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<h5>\ud83d\udca1 Top Travel Tip<\/h5>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    A &#8220;yes&#8221; isn&#8217;t always a yes.

Coffee is also a big part of local life. Tap water isn&#8217;t generally recommended for visitors, so stick to bottled or filtered water. If you&#8217;re set on eating street food, opt for busy stalls with a steady stream of customers.<\/p>\n<h6>Out &amp; About<\/h6>\n<p>If you&#8217;re heading out with colleagues, remember that Bengaluru can be quite conservative in some settings despite its modern image. Dress a little more modestly when visiting religious or traditional places, and follow local signs about footwear and photography.<\/p>\n<h6>Getting Around<\/h6>\n<p>Bengaluru traffic can be one of the biggest surprises for first-time visitors. Roads are busy, traffic can be unpredictable, and journeys that look short on a map can take a long time, particularly during the morning and evening rush hours.<\/p>\n<h6>Weather<\/h6>\n<p>Bengaluru is known for having a relatively mild climate compared with many other Indian cities. Days are generally warm rather than intensely hot, although temperatures rise during the hotter months. The city has distinct rainy periods, and heavy showers can arrive quite suddenly. A small umbrella is worth carrying, particularly during the monsoon months.<\/p>\n<h6>Emergency Services<\/h6>\n<p>India&#8217;s main emergency number is <strong>112<\/strong>, which connects to emergency services including police, fire and medical assistance. 100 is also used for police emergencies and 108 for ambulance services in many parts of India<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code

The <strong>Purple Line<\/strong> is particularly useful for business travellers, linking the central business district with areas including <strong>Indiranagar and Whitefield<\/strong>. The <strong>Green Line<\/strong> runs through central Bengaluru and connects areas to the north and south of the city. Metro trains are generally clean, air-conditioned and easy to use, although the network does not yet reach every major business district. For journeys that are covered by the Metro, it can be a much more predictable option than travelling by road during busy periods.<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/details>\n<p>[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_code _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.8&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<style><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->\/* =========================================================<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->   GETTING AROUND SECTION<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->========================================================= *\/<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-family: \"Century Gothic\", CenturyGothic, AppleGothic, \"Trebuchet MS\", Arial, sans-serif;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  border: 1px solid #ddd;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  border-radius: 4px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  margin: 20px 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  overflow: hidden;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section summary {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  display: flex;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  align-items: center;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  gap: 10px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  padding: 15px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  cursor: pointer;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  list-style: none;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  background: #ececec;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section summary::-webkit-details-marker {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  display: none;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section summary h4 {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  margin: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  flex: 1;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-size: 1.4rem;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-weight: 700;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  line-height: 1.3;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section summary::after {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  content: \"+\";<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-size: 24px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  font-weight: 400;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  line-height: 1;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section[open] summary::after {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  content: \"\u2212\";<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section p {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  margin: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  padding: 15px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  border-top: 1px solid #ddd;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  background: #f7f7f7;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  line-height: 1.6;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section p:last-child {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  border-bottom-left-radius: 4px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  border-bottom-right-radius: 4px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section a {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  color: inherit;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  text-decoration: underline;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->.getting-around-section a:hover {<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  text-decoration: none;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/style>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<details class=\"getting-around-section\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<summary><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-taxi\" style=\"color: #5B8CB1;\"><\/i><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    <\/p>\n<h4>Auto-rickshaws<\/h4>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/summary>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    Bengaluru&#8217;s <strong>auto-rickshaws<\/strong> are a handy option for shorter journeys, particularly when your destination is awkward to reach by Metro.
