Real estate is downstream of infrastructure. In Pune, Baner is the textbook example of how planned upgrades translate into rising baner property prices and accelerated appreciation for projects in the corridor.
Pune Metro Line 3:
The Hinjawadi to Shivajinagar Metro will run through Baner. Properties within 1 km of the alignment have already seen 8 to 12 percent additional appreciation since the line was finalised.
IT Hub Expansion:
Hinjawadi Phase 4 is in planning, EON IT Park and WTC Kharadi continue to expand. This deepens the rental pool for Baner residential projects, which sit within a 20-minute drive of all three.
Biodiversity Park Notification:
The 500-acre Baner-Pashan Biodiversity Park is permanently protected. Projects adjacent to the park, like 1 Presidential Sereno on Pancard Club Road, capture a permanent green-view premium that cannot be replicated.
Healthcare and Education:
Jupiter Hospital, Manipal, Ruby Hall, VIBGYOR, The Orchid School and Symbiosis are all within a 10-minute radius. This depth keeps end-user demand sticky regardless of cyclical price moves.
Price Impact:
Average 3 BHK ticket sizes in Baner have gone from 1.1 Cr in 2020 to about 2.2 Cr in 2026, far ahead of Pune's overall residential index. Most of this is structural, driven by the infrastructure stack, not speculation.
What Buyers Should Do:
Buy where infrastructure is committed but not yet fully delivered, which is exactly Baner today. The next 10 years still look attractive on a risk-adjusted basis.
Why NOW Realty Stands Apart:
With over 40 years of legacy in Pune real estate, NOW Realty has consistently set new benchmarks in design, construction quality, and customer experience. The flagship project, 1 Presidential Sereno on Pancard Club Road, Baner, represents the culmination of this experience: a 40-storey landmark tower adjacent to the 500-acre Baner-Pashan Biodiversity Park, offering 3, 4 and 5 BHK configurations that redefine premium living in western Pune.
Construction Quality You Can Trust:
Every NOW Realty project uses 100% MIVAN aluminium-formwork construction, ensuring monolithic concrete walls with superior strength, perfect right angles, and crack-free finishes. Our towers are designed to comply with seismic Zone III IS-1893 standards and incorporate IGBC green-building principles, double-glazed glass facades, podium-level landscaping, and high-efficiency MEP systems. When you invest with us, you are investing in a structure engineered to outlast generations.
Lifestyle & Amenities at 1 Presidential Sereno:
Residents enjoy a rooftop infinity pool overlooking the biodiversity park, a fully-equipped sports deck, multi-purpose clubhouse, indoor games arena, dedicated co-working lounges, a spa and wellness floor, EV-charging bays, biophilic landscaping at every podium, and an exclusive Sereno Concierge service. Every detail is engineered to make your everyday feel like a five-star vacation.
Location Advantage, Baner Hills:
Baner's infrastructure-led property price growth is best understood in the context of where Baner sits today. Baner Hills enjoys the highest natural elevation in this micro-market, an unobstructed western breeze, immediate access to the Mumbai-Pune Expressway, a 12-minute drive to Hinjawadi IT Park, top-tier schools (The Orchid School, VIBGYOR High, Symbiosis), specialty hospitals (Jupiter, Manipal, Ruby Hall), and the upcoming Pune Metro extension. No other Pune micro-market combines this density of advantages.
Investment Outlook for the Next 5 Years:
Independent reports from JLL, Anarock and Knight Frank consistently rank Baner among Pune's top three appreciation hotspots. Analysts project a CAGR of 9-12% for the next five years for premium projects in this corridor, driven by metro connectivity, biodiversity-park protection, infrastructure spending under the Smart City mission, and the structural shift toward branded developers post-RERA. For end-users, this means your home will appreciate while you live in it; for investors, it means superior risk-adjusted returns versus equities or commercial real estate.
NRI-Friendly Buying Process:
NOW Realty offers a fully digital buying experience for NRI and out-of-station customers, virtual site tours, e-KYC, e-stamping via FEMA-compliant channels, dedicated relationship managers, and end-to-end home-loan tie-ups with HDFC, ICICI, SBI and Axis. Repatriation, Power of Attorney, NRO/NRE remittance, TDS handling and rental management are all supported by our in-house desk.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Buyers most commonly ask about RERA registration (1 Presidential Sereno is registered under MahaRERA P52100054930), possession timelines (phased handover starting 2026), payment plans (CLP, down-payment with discount, and subvention schemes are available), Vastu compliance (every unit is Vastu-aligned with master bedrooms in the south-west and entrances in auspicious directions), and resale liquidity (Baner has the deepest secondary market in western Pune, with average days-on-market under 60 for premium 3 and 4 BHKs).
