Bandar Kinrara is a township in Puchong, Selangor, Malaysia. The Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve is situated to its south. Island & Peninsular Berhad commenced the township development under Perumahan Kinrara Berhad in 1991. The only link road to the development then was via Jalan Puchong before entering Kinrara Army Camp road. BK1 was constructed for low-cost terrace houses before BK2 double storey terraces begun construction. The construction of Puchong-Sungai Besi Highway (Federal route ) helped Bandar Kinrara to expand the development phase on both side of the highway. An underpass linked both sides of the development.
