Hinjawadi is best known as Pune's IT capital. The Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park stretches across three phases here, and tens of thousands of software professionals live in the towers of Hinjawadi, Wakad and Maan. Many of them have parents who moved in with them, or who visit for months at a time, and a growing number of those parents would rather have a home of their own nearby than share a flat. That is the main reason families look for senior living in Hinjawadi.
The draw is closeness: a parent lives a few minutes from their children and grandchildren, in a community built for older people, without being cut off. Elkin lists one verified senior living community here, Athashri Xion, and can help you compare it with care homes in Baner, Balewadi and Baner NX, which are a short drive along the highway.
Athashri Xion, at the gateway to Phase 1
Athashri Xion is a senior living project by Paranjape Schemes Construction under its Athashri brand. It stands at the entrance to Hinjawadi Phase 1, just off the Mumbai-Bengaluru bypass, with hotels, offices and malls around it.
Residents buy their homes, which are two-bedroom apartments of about 645 sq ft built for wheelchair access with anti-skid flooring. The community has a pool and gardens and allows pets. Its listing describes support layered to suit different needs:
- For active residents. An active senior community with emotional and social support, vegetarian dining so cooking is optional, and daily health monitoring.
- When health dips. Medical care, physiotherapy and an ambulance on site for emergencies.
- As an add-on. Help with personal hygiene and trained caregivers are available on request, so a resident can add assisted living support later without moving out.
Athashri Xion suits a healthy senior or couple who want independence near their children. If your parent already needs daily nursing, look at assisted living homes in Pune or the Pimpri-Chinchwad side at assisted living in Wakad.
Hinjawadi for older residents: the practical view
- Hospitals. Ruby Hall Clinic Hinjawadi serves the IT park area, and Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital in Thergaon and the hospitals of Baner are reachable along the highway. Check how the ambulance route works at office rush hour.
- Traffic. Hinjawadi's roads are busy at peak hours, which matters for hospital trips and visits. Pune Metro Line 3, linking Hinjawadi to Shivajinagar through Balewadi and Baner, is designed to ease that.
- Shopping and services. Malls, supermarkets, pharmacies and restaurants are close by, more than in most outer suburbs.
- Family on the doorstep. For parents of IT professionals, the biggest benefit is simple: their children can drop in at lunch or after work.
What senior living costs in Hinjawadi
Hinjawadi is priced like the established west Pune neighbourhoods for owned senior homes. As a rough guide, larger senior apartments in Hinjawadi, Baner, Pashan and Bavdhan cost about ₹60 lakh to ₹1.2 crore to buy, plus monthly maintenance and dining charges. Monthly-fee assisted living ranges from about ₹25,000 to ₹45,000 a month in Pimpri-Chinchwad and the outer suburbs to about ₹35,000 to ₹60,000 in Baner and Balewadi. Dementia and bedridden care costs about ₹40,000 to ₹80,000 a month. These are ranges, not quotes, so confirm the current price with the community.

Old age homes near Hinjawadi and other options
Searches for an old age home in Hinjawadi usually come from busy working children who need care nearby quickly. Hinjawadi itself is about owned independent living, so for residential care look one or two areas over:
- Senior living in Baner NX, on the highway in Mhalunge, for palliative and post-surgery care.
- Senior living in Balewadi, with a dementia care centre and more affordable Athashri flats.
- Senior living in Lavale, to the south, with a hotel-style residence near Symbiosis University Hospital.
- All senior living homes in Pune.
