'''Jigani''' [[Hobli]] is located in [[Anekal]] taluk in South [[Bengaluru]], [[India]] and is situated at a distance of 28 km from Bangalore city railway station. Some of the features of the place Jigani are that it has a well-established Jigani industrial area and also very near to [[Electronics City]] in [[Bangalore]]. Several such Government initiatives to improve development to this area in Bangalore has led to growth of population in this area starting 2004. Recently due to an outburst in worker population this place has made Odia, Tamil, and Telugu as more frequently used languages. Companies like HCL, OTIS, APC, Toyota, BuziBrAIns, The Akshayapatra foundation etc. have brought more people to this remote location.

It is one of the industrial areas in [[Anekal]] taluk, with others being [[Attibele]], [[Bommasandra]], [[Chandapura]], [[Electronic City]] and [[Sarjapura]].
