Why Chakan MIDC is Pune’s Most Strategic Industrial Hub

In the evolving landscape of industrial real estate in India, Chakan MIDC stands out as a powerhouse — not just for Maharashtra, but for the entire country. Often called the “Detroit of India,” Chakan has rapidly become one of the most sought-after destinations for manufacturing and warehousing.

1.    Prime Location & Connectivity

Situated just 30 km from Pune, Chakan offers seamless access to major national corridors, including the Mumbai–Pune–Nashik industrial belt. With proximity to NH‑60, the Mumbai–Pune Expressway, JNPT Port, and the upcoming Pune International Airport, its logistics infrastructure is unmatched.

2. MIDC-Backed Infrastructure & Policy Support

As a fully developed industrial node under the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC), Chakan offers:

– Plug-and-play infrastructure
– Quick land clearances, power, water, and road connectivity
– Pro-business regulations and ease of doing business in Maharashtra

This makes it extremely attractive for both domestic and multinational enterprises seeking seamless project execution and long-term value.

3. Magnet for Global & Indian Brands

Chakan is home to a thriving ecosystem of industry leaders, including:

– Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Bajaj Auto, Flash Electronics, Bosch, Hyundai, and more
– A strong presence in automotive, auto components, engineering, and electronics
– A ready pool of skilled manpower and vendor ecosystem

This industrial synergy makes it easier for new businesses to integrate into existing supply chains and scale efficiently.

4. Leasing Trends & Market Momentum

Chakan’s dominance is backed by data:

– In FY 2023, Pune recorded 7.4 million sq. ft. of warehouse leasing — and Chakan–Talegaon contributed 83% of that demand.

– According to CBRE India, in H1 2024, India saw 13 million sq. ft. of leasing across key industrial markets — Chakan–Talegaon remained among the top 3 most active micro-markets alongside Bhiwandi and Oragadam.

These stats clearly show that Chakan is now preferred over other Indian locations due to its strategic advantages, integrated infrastructure, and scalable land availability.

5. Built-to-Suit & Warehousing: The Core Growth Drivers

As tenant expectations evolve, companies increasingly opt for Built-to-Suit (BTS) facilities over standard leases. Chakan offers a conducive environment for such development due to its open land banks, MIDC approvals, and infrastructure readiness.
