Kalinga Nagar is a planned residential sector in southwestern Bhubaneswar, developed under Bhubaneswar Development Authority housing schemes near Khandagiri and Jagamara. Its BDA sub-sectors such as Kharavela Complex and Daya Enclave were laid out with parks, sewage treatment and round-the-clock water and power supply, and the area has since drawn apartment projects from builders including Tata Realty and Trident.

It remains a quieter, still-developing pocket where residents depend mainly on private vehicles, since metro access and frequent buses into the city core are limited.
