Bangalore South Assembly seat is one of the seats in Karnataka state assembly in India. It is part of the Bangalore Rural Lok Sabha seat. Notably, the Bangalore South Lok Sabha constituency does not contain the Bangalore South Assembly constituency.

Bangalore South Assembly seat was created when delimitation of seats was carried out in 2008. While there are four Lok Sabha seats with the name of the city 'Bangalore' in their title, Bangalore South is the only Assembly seat among dozens in the city boundary which has the word 'Bangalore' in its title.
