Hosur Main Road location and arrival planning
Address: Wilson Garden Electric Crematorium, Kengal Hanumanthaiah Circle, Hosur Main Road, Wilson Garden, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560027.
From Jayanagar or South End Circle
Approach through Lalbagh or Wilson Garden according to live traffic. Allow time for the final Hosur Main Road turn and vehicle entry.
From Shantinagar or Richmond Town
K.H. Road and Double Road traffic can change quickly. Fix the hearse departure after the slot or burial reporting time is known.
From Koramangala or Adugodi
Use the Hosur Road approach and keep a buffer around Dairy Circle, Adugodi and the Wilson Garden junctions.
From a hospital or apartment
Share the release gate, tower, floor, lift access and loading point before dispatch. These details determine the real pickup duration.
Exact pin
Send the map pin directly to the hearse driver and attending relatives.
Reporting contact
Keep one family member responsible for all original papers and acknowledgements.
Method confirmation
Do not move the body until the electric slot or burial-ground arrangement is clear.
Ritual readiness
Confirm the pandit, materials and sequence before the reporting time.
Choose the method before arranging transport
Select a method below to see the confirmation needed before departure.
Electric cremation
The official portal controls the available chamber date and time. The portal states working hours of 8:00 AM–5:00 PM, a minimum one-hour slot and reporting 15–20 minutes before the booked time.
The acknowledgement, MCCD, release papers and identity documents should remain with the applicant who reports at the facility.
Burial
The electric-slot acknowledgement does not reserve a grave. Burial requires separate confirmation of ground availability, the grave position, preparation time and the person responsible at the burial site.
The family should decide whether the body will be wrapped or placed in a coffin according to its custom and the current ground instruction.
Electric slot booking and burial confirmation
Complete the correct confirmation for the selected method before fixing the vehicle departure.
Electric cremation: official portal
Select the relevant zone, choose Wilson Garden from the cremation-place list, select an available date and time, complete the applicant details and save the final acknowledgement.
Open Official Booking PortalA confirmed electric slot cannot be used as proof of burial-ground allocation. Each method needs its own acknowledgement or on-ground confirmation.
Documents for electric cremation or burial
The medical and release papers depend on where and how the death occurred, not on the chosen final-rites method.
Form 4 and hospital release
Carry the Medical Certificate of Cause of Death in Form 4, hospital release or death-summary papers, deceased-person ID and applicant ID.
Form 4A and identity papers
For an eligible non-institutional death, carry the doctor-issued MCCD in Form 4A with the deceased-person and applicant identity papers.
Police and postmortem papers
Carry the police release or no-objection document, postmortem report and the hospital or mortuary handover papers required for that case.
Form 4 or Form 4A is the medical cause-of-death record. It is separate from the civil death certificate issued after registration.
