Area Overview
What makes Bhosari special
Bhosari sits on the eastern side of the PCMC belt, wrapped around one of Maharashtra’s oldest and largest industrial estates. The MIDC here has been the employment engine of Pimpri-Chinchwad since the 1960s.
The old village core, the Landewadi and Gavhane Vasti sides, and the newer society development along the Nashik and Alandi roads make up the residential belt.
It is the closest PCMC town to Pune Airport, which matters more than it sounds — sixteen kilometres against twenty-five from Wakad. The Dehu–Alandi road links it north toward Moshi and Chakan.

Why choose Bhosari?
Bhosari is the value option on the airport side of the belt. It has the MIDC estate as a local employment base, Pune Airport about forty minutes away, Kendriya Vidyalaya within 2 km, and prices well below Pimpri or Chinchwad with yields around 4.5–5%. The trade-offs are industrial air quality, no railway station, no metro planned, and a forty-five-minute drive to Hinjewadi.
