By GeoSquare News Desk · Published 2026-11-03

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate Pune Metro Line 3, connecting Hinjawadi and Shivajinagar, on November 3. The event also marks the launch of metro projects worth Rs 21,800 crore, signalling a major infrastructure push for the city.

Real Estate Impact

The 23-km elevated corridor is expected to significantly improve connectivity between the IT hub of Hinjawadi and the central business district of Shivajinagar. Property experts anticipate a surge in demand for residential and commercial spaces along the corridor, especially in areas like Wakad, Balewadi, and Baner.

Historically, metro lines have led to a 10-20% appreciation in property prices within a 1-km radius. With Line 3 now operational, investors are eyeing mid-segment and premium projects near the 24 stations. Rental yields are also likely to rise as professionals seek easy access to tech parks.

New Metro Projects

The Rs 21,800 crore investment includes extensions and new corridors that will further expand Pune's metro network. These projects are expected to create a ripple effect on real estate development in upcoming suburbs, making them attractive for long-term investment.

For homebuyers, the improved transit infrastructure reduces commute times, making peripheral areas more viable. Developers are already launching new projects with metro connectivity as a key selling point, offering competitive pricing and modern amenities.
