Nashik has better potential for property price appreciation than any other tier-2 or tier-3 city in Maharashtra, owing to its growth and expanding economic opportunities, says Hardik Puranik, a local property broker. This feeling is echoed by most of the real estate analysts, who vouch that Nashik will be the next growth corridor of Maharashtra. There are many factors that work in Nashik’s favour.

“With a price range of Rs 2,700-3,800 per sq ft, Nashik holds tremendous potential for sizeable appreciation. Even the best properties in Nashik, are below Rs 5,000 per sq ft,” Puranik explains.
Nashik is the third-largest district in Maharashtra, covering 15,530 sq kms in the Khandesh region. More importantly, it is already a predominantly urban region and has moved away from being just a pilgrimage destination. Nashik is also attracting property seekers from neighbouring cities like Pune and Mumbai, owing to the growth of its physical and social infrastructure and its pleasant climate.

Manju Yagnik, vice-chairperson of the Nahar Group, feels that the growth in tier-2 cities like Nashik, can be attributed to the increasing disposable incomes of the people and companies looking for new markets for growth. This growth has also been helped by reasonable real estate prices and a conducive business environment created by the state and local governments. “The credit for rapid urbanisation in Nashik goes to skill-based manufacturing industries, like automotive, consumer and capital goods, engineering, textiles, pharmaceutical sectors like bio-technology and IT/ITeS,” says Yagnik.
Nashik is among the 10 cities from Maharashtra, selected for development as smart cities.
