Economic Development Council lists Magarpatta City among the 'Top 10 success stories of the State'. Today, the
name Magarpatta City stands for quality in construction, innovation in design and impeccable planning. It is the only
fully functional and privately managed township in the country and is regarded as a remarkable reality; a reality born
through immaculate vision and brilliant execution.
Magarpatta City is a satellite township of Pune, India. It was built over 430 acres in the erstwhile village of
Hadapsar, on the outskirts of Pune. Magarpatta was conceived to have residential as well as corporate, mostly
IT/ITES, community. Some of the IT/ITES corporates based in Magarpatta are Accenture, Amdocs, Avaya, TATA Elxsi,
BNY Mellon, iNautix Technologies, Principal Financial Group, Capita, CompuCom, MarketsandMarkets, EDS, Mphasis,
iGATE and Sybase, system +, Destination center, HCL Technologies Limited. It also has offices of top consulting firms
like ZS Associates & Dar Al-Handasah and outsourcing services firms like EXL & Yash Technologies including John
Deere. An Engineering center of Red Hat is also based here.
The Masterplanning and Architectural development of Magarpatta City was undertaken by Associated Space
Designers Pvt. Ltd, Pune, under the stewardship of Ar. Prakash Deshmukh. Situated on the eastern side of Pune,
Magarpatta is close to the Kharadi IT Park, EON IT Park, Kalyani Nagar, Koregaon Park, Fatimanagar and the Hadapsar
Industrial Estate.
History : Magarpatta was originally multiple plots of land owned by a farmer community called "Magar", "Tupe" and
various other localities. The land they tilled has been under the Pune municipal jurisdiction since 1960, though it was still
an agricultural zone. But in 1982, the Pune Municipal Corporation marked it as a 'future urbanisable zone' in its draft
development plan, which meant that the government could easily acquire the land under the Urban Land Ceiling Act. The
Magar clan and their immediate neighbours, comprising 123 families decided that they would develop the land
themselves. They pooled 400 acres (162 ha) before requesting architect Hafeez Contractor to draft a private township
plan, which was submitted to the departments of the state administration for approval. They mooted the idea of a
company rather than a cooperative so that each family got shares equal to the size of their landholding. The company
was registered as the Magarpatta Township Development and Construction Company Limited; Satish Magar is its
managing director.
