Pune, 11 July 2025: As Pune’s Metro network steadily expands across the city, its impact on the local real estate market has been nothing short of dramatic. The under-construction Hinjewadi–Shivajinagar Metro line, in particular, is playing a pivotal role in transforming nearby localities into real estate hotspots. Enhanced connectivity and improved infrastructure have led to a surge in demand, reshaping buyer preferences and driving up property prices significantly.
According to Credai Pune, since 2021, premium home sales in key areas like Hinjewadi, Wakad, Baner, Balewadi, Tathawade, and Aundh have witnessed an extraordinary growth of over 300%.
These sales are concentrated in the ₹1–2 crore segment, signaling a marked shift toward infrastructure-led investments. The preference for homes near Metro corridors underscores buyers' increasing focus on convenience, better connectivity, and long-term value appreciation.
Simultaneously, the real estate momentum is also visible in emerging pockets across Pimpri Chinchwad. Areas such as Punawale, Ravet, Moshi, and Pimple Saudagar are seeing rising demand for affordable and mid-range housing. This growth is being fuel by expectations of future Metro connectivity and competitive pricing, making them attractive destinations for both end-users and investors.
Overall, property prices in Pune have appreciated by an estimated 25–30% per square foot, largely driven by the ongoing infrastructure boom, preference for larger homes, and sustained buyer interest. Prime neighborhoods like Baner, Aundh, Bavdhan, and Kalyani Nagar have experienced even sharper spikes, with rates increasing by 35–40%. Meanwhile, areas like Wagholi, Moshi, and Ravet are showing steady growth in the range of 20–25%.
Experts from Credai highlight that proximity to a Metro station is now a key determinant in property valuation. Homes located within 500 metres of a Metro station are seeing annual price appreciation of 10–25%, underlining their appeal among both homebuyers and developers. Rental values are also surging in tech-centric areas such as Hinjewadi, Kharadi, and across Pimpri Chinchwad, where rents have increased by up to 30%, further cementing the region’s investment potential.
With multiple Metro lines under construction and further expansion on the horizon, Pune’s Metro-linked real estate market is set to witness sustained growth. This evolving connectivity is solidifying Pune’s position as one of the most promising and investment-worthy urban centres in the country.
