The Union Cabinet’s recent nod to Phase-2 of the Pune Metro, comprising Corridor 2A (Vanaz to Chandani Chowk) and Corridor 2B (Ramwadi to Wagholi) marks the next phase in this journey. With an investment of ₹3,630 crore, these 12.75 kilometers of elevated tracks will stitch together fast-growing neighborhoods such as Bavdhan, Kothrud, and Wagholi into Pune’s urban fabric. More than just infrastructure, this is a move that directly impacts the way the city will live, work, and grow over the next decade.
Wagholi, for instance, was once viewed as an outer suburb, and is now rising fast on the radar of aspirational buyers, thanks to improved connectivity to Kharadi and the city’s eastern IT belt. Similarly, Bavdhan and Kothrud are set to benefit not just in terms of residential demand but also from the development of new commercial zones, creating vibrant, self-sustained corridors of activity.
Metro-linked areas also witness a parallel boost in the rental market. As professionals working in Hinjewadi or Magarpatta get access to seamless travel, demand for rental housing surges. This builds long-term investment potential and positions such corridors as high-yield assets in an increasingly discerning real estate market.
Ultimately, Pune’s real estate growth is being driven by a buyer who seeks more than just a home. They’re investing in lifestyle, access, and community. They want affordability without sacrificing convenience. They want premium experiences within reachable distances. The Metro’s expansion supports that vision, making this move not just a win for infrastructure, but a defining moment for Pune’s next wave of urban transformation.
Pune is no longer just a city of potential; it’s a city in motion. And with this expansion, it’s moving in the right direction.
