History

Pimple Saudagar was earlier an underdeveloped area. From the late 1990s, the area grew to catch up with the vast industrialization and expansion of the Pune city.[1] The introduction of IT Park near Hinjewadi in 2003 sparked a tremendous real estate growth in the region favored by IT professionals.[2] and it has become a golden crown of Pimpri-Chinchwad having high life standard.

Geography and Climate

Pimple Saudagar is located on relatively flat land. The Pavana River cutting through the northern areas of the locality is the major source of water, however, water shortage is being experienced in recent years due to the expanding population and water usage.[3] The suburbs bordering Pimple Saudagar are Hinjawadi to the west, Aundh to the south and Sangvi to the east. The climate of Pimple Saudagar is almost identical to that of Pune as a whole.
