Banaswadi station lacks public transport facility. Of course, you can take Rickshaw/Taxi to any station.

Silk Board to Banaswadi:
1) Board Hebbal bound buses and alight anywhere between Ramamurthy Nagar Signal and Hennur cross and catch a rickshaw to Banaswadi.
2)

Bus from Silk Board to Shivajinagar.... 2nd bus from Shivajinagar to ITC..... Rickshaw to Banaswadi

Best option would be to board the train at Hosur. Take an KSRTC/TNSTC bus bound to Hosur. Get down at Hosur bus stand and take an auto to station.

Agreed. Best option is to change the BP and board at Hosur. Saves so much time as Rajeev has to start from Silkboard atleast 2-2.5hrs before scheduled departure at BAND. It will be a nightmare crossing Bellandur, Marathahali, Old Madras road at that time. If you cannot change BP, better catch 500 series volvo to Hebbal and follow point 1 in post above.

Vinay, since he has already booked the tkt from YPR, boarding from HSRA would be a risky proposition.That apart auto drivers fleece passengers at HSRA especially for rides to and from the railway station. Best option like you have mentioned is to take a combo of bus and taxi.
Silk board-CDSR bus and CSDR-BAND rickshaw.

Best would be to book an OLA from CSDR which will cost Rs. 100

May be a late reply.
Direct bus also available. MBS 8 or 412. But frequency is less. (Can get down at Jai Bharath Nagar. Walkable distance to station, less than a KM,)
