Bengaluru's UB City mall, known as India's first luxury mall, has caused a stir on social media by charging a whopping Rs 1,000 per hour for "premium parking" for four-wheelers. Regular parking rates for four-wheelers are Rs 100 for the first four hours and Rs 200 for each subsequent hour.
The premium parking charges remain constant per hour, prompting social media users to express shock and disbelief. Some speculate that the high charges are aimed at discouraging parking, particularly for non-luxury vehicles. Others argue that such costs are inconsequential for owners of high-end cars.
