Kharadi Leads Pune’s Commercial Real Estate Boom with 8 Million Sq. Ft. of Leasing in 2024
Pune's commercial real estate (CRE) market has hit a major milestone in 2024, with Knight Frank reporting a 19% year-on-year surge in leasing volumes, reaching 8 million square feet. Leading this upward trend is Kharadi, a rapidly evolving business district that has solidified its reputation as the city’s most sought-after commercial hotspot.
Once considered an emerging suburb, Kharadi is now a magnet for global enterprises, driven by excellent connectivity, a robust residential ecosystem, and a flourishing tech and startup scene. From Fortune 500 firms to agile enterprises, companies are actively securing space in this booming market.
Kharadi: Pune’s Premier Commercial Hub
Kharadi’s ascent as a business nucleus is backed by strategic planning, urban development, and investment in infrastructure. Its seamless access to Pune Airport, major highways, and central city locations has made it a compelling destination for corporates and startups alike.
In 2024, top-tier organizations like Citicorp, BNY Mellon, Hines, Amazon, Deloitte, and others inked major leasing deals here. As per industry estimates, the area is expected to require over 20 million sq. ft. of office space in the near future to accommodate approximately 500,000 professionals.
