Proximity to Metro corridor pushes up real estate demand and prices in Pune city areas
1 2 Pune: With the connectivity of Metro services improving in several parts of the city, real estate prices along the corridor have seen a significant boost. Micro-markets such as Hinjewadi, Wakad, Baner, Balewadi, Tathawade, and Aundh — which are aligned with the under-construction Hinjewadi-Shivajinagar Metro line — have seen a surge in premium home sales, with units priced from Rs1-2 crore growing by over 300% since 2021, according to the Confederation of Real Estate Developers' Associations of India (Credai) Pune. Similarly, it adds that proposed Metro-connected zones in Pimpri Chinchwad, including Punawale, Ravet, Moshi, and Pimple Saudagar, have recorded strong growth in affordable and mid-segment housing.

Premium areas such as Baner, Aundh, Kalyani Nagar, and Bavdhan have witnessed sharper increases of up to 35-40%, while emerging micro-markets like Moshi, Wagholi, and Ravet have seen steady appreciation in the range of 20-25%," Manish Jain, president of Credai Pune, told TOI. Metro proximity has become a strong value driver. Properties located within approximately 500m of Metro stations have recorded annual price appreciation ranging from 10-25%, said Aakash Agarwal, managing director of Krisala Developers. "Cumulatively, this translates to a substantial compound increase between 25% and 80% over the last three years, depending on the specific location and stage of Metro development in that area," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 새로 나온 "실비보험" 최적가 가입추천!

Metro expansion has further maximised the real estate value of this region. We are exploring further projects around the route. " Ritesh Mehta, senior director and head of west, north and east residential services and developer initiatives at JLL, echoed that several key locations along Metro routes have witnessed a spike in end-user and investor interest, especially where connectivity has improved or is expected to soon. Data from JLL shows that average prices per square foot in Kharadi have risen from Rs6,000-7,000 per sq ft to Rs8,000-9,500 per sq ft; in Shivajinagar, prices per sq ft have shot up from Rs11,000-12,000 per sq ft to Rs13,500-15,000 per sq ft. Buyers also see this development as an investment opportunity, with property prices expected to appreciate in value by 20-25% over the next three to five years. Areas with good proximity to Metro routes, including Hinjewadi, Kharadi, Pimpri Chinchwad and Shivajinagar, have seen a strong increase in buyer interest, said market observers. "I was looking to invest actively in real estate two or three years ago, and someone suggested that I should purchase property close to the upcoming Metro corridor in Pimpri Chinchwad. In just one year, prices of my property appreciated by 15-20%," Mumbai resident Dushyant Singh told TOI. Kedar Shirke, a resident of Undri, purchased a property in Kharadi in 2023 and rented it out. "Rentals have already started zooming, and I am getting much higher rents this year than I did two years ago," he said. According to data from online real estate platform NoBroker, properties in areas such as Bhosari, Dapodi, Bopodi, Vanaz, Kalyaninagar, and Ramwadi have seen a spike in demand. "Property prices have risen by 28-35% since 2021-22. Rents have spiked by 30% in the same period," said Saurabh Garg, co-founder and chief business officer of NoBroker. As new Metro lines come up, places such as Hinjewadi are slated to see higher interest. Hinjewadi is also the cheapest market on the Metro line right now, Rohit Gera, MD of Gera Developments, told TOI. "We have acquired land next to the proposed Balewadi Metro station and are in the process of designing a mixed-use project of a million square feet, with mid-size apartments, retail, and co-living spaces. We will cater to the rising demand from people working in the IT, automobile, and hospitality industries, with a large chunk of sales to young professionals in the 25-35 age group," said Kapil Gandhi, MD, Sigma One Universal.

Automated parking system gets mixed response in Pune
Pune: Space limitations in major cities are driving a gradual shift towards elevated and high-rise car parking solutions. Modern technology now offers several advanced options beyond the traditional elevated parking commonly found in residential complexes. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Project requirements dictate the choice of design, with options including the chess set pattern, aisle pattern, and rotary pattern, among others. While most people still prefer conventional ground-level parking, the severe space constraints in cities like Mumbai necessitate high-rise car parks that can extend up to 70 meters in height. In contrast, homebuyers in the Pune area show mixed preferences when it comes to these more intricate car parking designs. "Consumers are quickly getting used to modern parking systems, which now even come with AI. These systems can tell you exactly how many parking spots are open, cutting down on the time you spend driving around looking for one. Developers, too, are finding it impossible to meet parking requirements with just traditional stilt and basement parking, so they have to go with mechanized systems," Manish Jain, president of Credai Pune Metro, said. A developer based in Pimpri Chinchwad said, "While complicated parking designs are still rare, they are starting to appear in redevelopment projects where the plot sizes are very small. However, in areas like Pimpri Chinchwad, we have even seen some buyers cancel their bookings if a project features elevated parking." Milind Padole, founder of Pune-based Affordable Robotics and Automation Pvt Ltd (ARAPL), said Mumbai, Chennai, and Bengaluru are major markets. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "High-rise parking systems are one of the verticals of the company that is involved in providing robotics and automation solutions to car manufacturers and e-commerce companies. It has a 30% share in the automated parking space in Mumbai," he said. "There is no space in cities like Mumbai. Everything is redevelopment. In the case of high-rise parking, we can fit around 60 to 70 cars in the space of three cars. The automated parking consumes around one unit of electricity when used once. In localities like Walkeshwar in Mumbai, where there is no space at all, but the buyers are ready, we can install chess-type parking, which can cost up to Rs 11 lakh per spot," he said. The ARAPL has installed some automated parking for public projects in a couple of smart cities like Visakhapatnam and Kerala. However, it is treading lightly in this business as adaptation is happening at a slow pace, either because of preference or lack of funds. "The technology exists, but there is some resistance from the end-customers. At some point, civic administration and developers need to decide if roads are to be used for parking or driving. If roads are meant for driving, then cars should not be parked on the roads," Padole said.
