Dateline: PUNE — The Pune Municipal Corporation proposed a revised parking policy on September 22, 2026, that could increase on-street parking for cars to ₹40 per hour in central areas.
The Details
Parking a vehicle in central Pune is about to become significantly more expensive. On September 22, 2026, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) proposed a heavily revised parking policy that consolidates the city’s current three zones into just two.
Under the new framework, Zone A will encompass the densely populated central districts. The PMC has proposed hiking on-street parking charges in Zone A to ₹40 per hour for four-wheelers and ₹20 per hour for two-wheelers.
Furthermore, the policy introduces progressive fees for longer durations, meaning a car parked on the street for 10 hours could rack up a massive ₹500 charge. The proposal must clear the PMC Standing Committee and General Body before taking full effect across the city’s busiest corridors.
Why It Matters for Pune Camp
The promoter of BharatOne Spaces brings a rich experience of 30 years in various fields of business, noting that aggressive street-parking fees rapidly alter consumer behavior. If the PMC implements a ₹40 hourly charge, casual shoppers and diners will actively avoid visiting central retail districts that rely entirely on curbside parking.
For corporate tenants and premium retailers in Pune Camp and the Cantonment, this civic policy makes dedicated parking infrastructure absolutely mandatory. Moving your business to a professionally managed property like Deccan Tower, Pulgate Chowk, Camp, Pune, shields your clients and employees from these exorbitant municipal street fees. Offering guaranteed, off-street parking will become a primary competitive advantage for businesses operating in central Pune.
