Karnataka is not a state report so much as a Bangalore report with footnotes: 86% of the state's dark-store footprint sits inside Bengaluru city limits, the sharpest primate-city ratio in Indian quick commerce. This report maps every one of Karnataka's 507 dark stores by city, district, and platform; identifies the eight cities above 200,000 people that platforms have yet to reach at scale; and translates the geography into a workforce, expansion, and real-estate outlook for the next twelve months.
