Commercial Shops for Sale in Pune – Street‑Facing Shops at Wagholi High Street

Pune’s demand for commercial shops is shifting from a few saturated high streets to new corridors shaped by IT parks, upcoming metro lines and the Ring Road. If you are actively searching for a commercial shop for sale in Pune, Wagholi High Street on Kesnand Road offers a curated high‑street option in East Pune with realistic ticket sizes, infra‑backed upside and a transparent developer behind it.

Market Snapshot of Commercial Shops for Sale in Pune 2026

Buyers today see thousands of “shops for sale in Pune” across Baner, Kharadi, Wakad, Viman Nagar, PCMC and newer eastern pockets, but most listings only show price, area and a few hype lines. Price bands range from roughly ₹20–60 lakh for small shops in peripheral belts to ₹3–5 crore for larger, pre‑leased assets on premium high streets like JM Road, Baner, Viman Nagar and Koregaon Park.

On the supply side, the west corridor (Baner–Balewadi–Wakad–Hinjewadi) is a mature IT‑driven zone with high entry prices and more intense high‑street competition. The east corridor (Kharadi–Viman Nagar–Wagholi) combines strong IT‑led demand with relatively lower entry prices and a strong infra pipeline (Ring Road, Nagar Road upgrades, metro extension), giving investors a better balance between capital cost and future appreciation potential.

Why Wagholi–Kesnand Is an Emerging High‑Street for Pune Businesses

Many business owners who compare Kharadi, Baner, Wakad and Pimpri‑Chinchwad now also look at Wagholi–Kesnand as a serious alternative. The reason is simple: the eastern Ring Road alignment (Theurphata–Kesnand–Wagholi–Charholi) and the 120 ft Kesnand Link Road connect this belt not just to Nagar Road, but also to the Solapur side and the future Purandar Airport corridor.

MSRDC’s approval for a six‑lane, multi‑level flyover upgrade on the Pune–Ahmednagar Highway between Yerwada and Kharadi, plus the planned Kesnand–Shirur elevated corridor, is turning Nagar Road–Wagholi into a faster arterial spine. At the same time, the Ramwadi–Wagholi Metro extension with 11 new stations and a parallel elevated road package aims to ease the worst bottleneck between Ramwadi and Wagholi over an estimated 42‑month execution period.

Wagholi High Street: A Curated High‑Street for Shops, Offices & Showrooms

Wagholi High Street by GS Group (GS Developers) is a 5.5‑acre open‑air commercial destination on Kesnand Road, planned as a true high‑street rather than a closed mall. Five low‑rise G+3 towers combine high‑visibility retail shops, boutique offices and larger showrooms to create a central business hub for the Kesnand–Wagholi belt.

Location & Connectivity: Why This Micro‑Location Works for Shops

Wagholi High Street sits on Kesnand Main Road with direct access to the 120 ft Link Road that bridges Nagar Road and the Solapur side. This gives businesses the ability to serve dense local residential catchments as well as regional through‑traffic that will increasingly be routed via the Ring Road and external bypass instead of inner‑city choke points.​​

Approximate distances underline its day‑to‑day convenience: about 3 km to Pune–Ahmednagar Highway (Nagar Road), ~4.5 km to EON IT Park (Kharadi), ~6 km to World Trade Center, around 0.10 km to the nearest hospital and ~0.34 km to a leading school (Vibgyor Rise). With Ring Road, metro and highway upgrades converging here, Wagholi High Street is positioned as a Ring‑Road‑ready, metro‑linked commercial hub rather than just another roadside complex.

Who Should Buy These Shops?

Wagholi High Street is designed for buyers who want more than a generic listing – they want a high‑street platform that can support visibility, walk‑ins and long‑term brand positioning in East Pune. The project’s mix of compact, mid and large formats caters to both first‑time commercial buyers and seasoned investors.​​

Ideal business use‑cases

  • Clinics, diagnostics & wellness: The immediate presence of hospitals, schools and residential societies supports clinics, diagnostics centres, dental practices and wellness studios that depend on repeat local visitors.​​

  • Salons, fashion, electronics & QSRs: Street‑facing visibility, planned anchors and lifestyle amenities favour salons, fashion and gadget stores, cafés and QSR brands that thrive on impulse and repeat footfall.​

  • Professional offices: Boutique offices suit CAs, advocates, consultants, small agencies and satellite offices that want an East Pune business address close to Kharadi’s IT ecosystem.​​

  • Education & services: Coaching centres, training studios and service‑oriented businesses can tap into the student and young‑professional population in Wagholi.

Investor profile and yield logic

Investors targeting around 6–7% gross rental yields, along with infra‑driven appreciation, often find this corridor an attractive balance between risk and reward. Compared to high‑ticket inner‑city or west Pune high streets, Wagholi’s more accessible capital values and growing demand can translate into a stronger yield‑to‑investment ratio.

Pricing, Returns & Exit Strategy for Shops in Pune

In the current market, small shops in outer belts can begin in the ₹20–60 lakh range while large, well‑located, pre‑leased shops on prime high streets can reach ₹3–5 crore and beyond. Wagholi High Street positions its pricing (around ₹40 lakh+ for offices, ₹65–80 lakh+ for shops and ₹1.5 crore+ for bigger showrooms) between these extremes, offering organised, infra‑linked commercial real estate at a mid‑segment ticket size.​

Within this zone, commercial shop yields are typically estimated in the ~6–7% bracket, which is often higher than residential yields in mature west Pune localities that average closer to 3–4%. As key projects like the Ring Road and metro extension move from plan to reality, early investors stand to benefit from a combination of rental income and capital appreciation.

Exit options and holding strategy

  • Lease‑and‑hold: Secure a stable tenant and hold through multi‑year infra completion to capture both rent and appreciation.​​

  • Gradual upgrade: Start with a boutique office or small shop and upgrade within the project as your business or portfolio grows.​

  • Strategic resale: Consider selling once infra and catchment stories are fully visible and yields have compressed, attracting yield‑focused buyers who prefer tenanted, stabilised assets.

GST on Commercial Shops in Pune: What Buyers Commonly Ask

Many buyers today specifically ask about GST on commercial shop rent and on the purchase of under‑construction units before they finalise a deal. In India, renting or leasing out a commercial property (shop, office, warehouse) is treated as a taxable service, and GST at 18% is typically applicable on the rent received, subject to registration thresholds and current law.​

For purchases, under‑construction commercial property is generally subject to GST on the agreement value, while completed, ready‑to‑move units with a completion certificate usually fall outside GST and attract only stamp duty and registration. As a working rule, buyers often plan for around 12% effective GST load (after land abatement) on under‑construction commercial units, depending on the specific category and scheme applicable at the time of purchase. Always confirm the exact rate and structure with your tax advisor at the time of booking.

Stamp Duty on Commercial Property in Pune

Buyers also pay close attention to “stamp duty for commercial property in Pune” because it materially changes the all‑in cost. In Pune’s urban areas, total stamp duty components typically work out to about 7% for male buyers and 6% for female buyers, plus a 1% registration fee capped at ₹30,000 for properties above ₹30 lakh.

Budgeting for statutory charges

  • Always add stamp duty, registration and GST (if applicable to an under‑construction commercial unit) to your base property price before deciding affordability.​​

  • Most lenders finance a percentage of the agreement value; statutory charges and interior costs are usually from your own contribution.

Commercial Property Loan Interest Rates in 2026

Prospective buyers increasingly check loan eligibility and EMI impact early in their decision‑making by searching around “commercial property interest rate” or “loan for commercial property.” As of early 2026, commercial purchase loans for shops and offices generally fall in a broad 8.7–11.8% per annum range across major banks and NBFCs, depending on CIBIL score, borrower profile and loan product.

How commercial purchase loans differ from home loans

  • Loan‑to‑Value (LTV): For commercial purchases, lenders typically fund 55–70% of the property value, which means you must plan for 30–45% down payment.​

  • Tenure: Tenure is usually capped at 15 years, with some NBFCs offering up to 20 years, resulting in higher EMIs versus long‑tenure home loans.​

  • Prepayment: Floating‑rate loans to individuals may have nil prepayment penalty, while fixed‑rate loans or loans to firms/companies can attract 2–4% pre‑closure charges on principal outstanding.

Loan for Commercial Property vs Loan Against Property

Another common decision is whether to take a dedicated commercial purchase loan for a new shop or to use an existing asset as security through a Loan Against Property. For a shop in a project like Wagholi High Street, most first‑time investors prefer a straightforward commercial purchase loan linked to the new property itself.

Purchase loan vs LAP – typical patterns

  • Commercial purchase loan: Used to buy a new shop/office; strong profiles can access rates toward the lower end of the commercial band.​

  • Loan Against Property (LAP): Raised against an existing residential or commercial property; rates are usually higher and documentation centres on that existing asset.​

  • Investors who already own property sometimes use LAP for business capital, while new investors buying their first commercial shop often find it simpler to structure a pure purchase loan on the shop itself.

Commercial Property Insurance & Risk Cover

Along with GST and loans, many buyers now ask how to protect their shop investment and rental cash flows with commercial property insurance. A suitable policy can cover structural damage, selected natural events and, in some products, loss of rent due to insured incidents, which is especially important for visible, street‑facing shops.

What to look for in an insurance policy

  • Coverage for structure, internal fit‑outs and façade/plate glass, which are crucial for high‑street retail.​

  • Optional covers such as loss‑of‑rent and public liability, particularly for customer‑facing brands.​

  • Policy terms that align with lender requirements if the shop is financed through a commercial loan.

Property Tax Pune, TDS on Rent & Ongoing Costs

Buyers also want clarity on ongoing charges like property tax, maintenance and tax treatment of rental income once the shop is leased. Commercial units in Pune typically attract higher property‑tax slabs than residential and also involve common‑area maintenance, utilities, insurance and professional fees.​

If the rent crosses the applicable threshold, tenants may have to deduct TDS on rent, which is then available as credit while you compute your taxable income. In organised developments like Wagholi High Street, common‑area maintenance supports security, cleanliness, lighting and landscape – all of which protect the long‑term value of your shop and the overall high‑street experience.
