Kasturi Epitome Wakad: Price, RERA Numbers & Possession Guide (2026)

Kasturi Epitome Wakad at a Glance

Before getting into RERA numbers and price tables, it helps to understand what Kasturi Epitome actually is and where it sits in Wakad’s fast-changing skyline.

Kasturi Epitome sits near Shankar Kalat Nagar and Munjoba Nagar, just off Kala Khadak Road in Wakad, Pune 411057. Bhumkar Chowk, a well-known landmark and traffic junction, is roughly 500 metres away, and the project falls within easy reach of the Mumbai-Bengaluru Highway and Hinjewadi Road. The location works well for anyone commuting to the IT parks in Hinjewadi, since the drive is typically 15-20 minutes in normal traffic. Kasturi Housing markets this as a luxury 4 BHK development, but “Kasturi Epitome” on paper is actually two separate RERA-registered projects sharing one brand name.

If you’re comparing this project against other options in the same micro-market, connecting with verified estate agents in Wakad can save you the trouble of calling five different brokers to get five different price quotes.

Infrastructure promises move prices in Wakad faster than almost anywhere else in Pune right now, so it’s worth understanding exactly what’s confirmed and what’s still “targeted.”

The Wakad Chowk Metro Station is part of Pune Metro’s Line 3 corridor and sits close enough to Kasturi Epitome to matter for both resale value and daily commute. However, the opening timeline for this station has shifted at least four times in public reporting — from an original March 2023 target to mid-2025 to mid-July 2026, and most recently to around March 2026. Given this history, the honest way to frame it is: the station is targeted for early-to-mid 2026, pending confirmation — not a done deal.

Pune Ring Road: The Other Big Driver

The Pune Ring Road expansion received central approval in June 2025, and it directly benefits areas connecting Hinjewadi, Wakad, and Baner by easing bypass traffic that currently clogs Bhumkar Chowk and Kala Khadak Road. For investors, both the metro and Ring Road should be treated as medium-term (3–5 year) value drivers rather than immediate benefits, given the repeated timeline slippage on infrastructure projects in this corridor historically.

Price Trend 2025

Price is usually the first thing buyers want to know, and it’s also where the data conflicts are the widest for this project — anywhere from ₹9,200 to ₹19,309 per sq ft depending on which portal and which phase you land on.

As of Q4 2025, the most current and reliable price band for Kasturi Epitome is ₹11,200 to ₹16,800 per sq ft. This reflects a sharp rise during the quarter, which most likely reflects fresh Phase II launch pricing overtaking older Phase I stock in the data set rather than a literal jump on the same unit. In absolute terms, total flat prices span from around ₹2.16 Cr on the lower end to over ₹5 Cr for the largest duplex units.

Why Did Prices Rise So Sharply?

Two developments explain most of the jump: growing confidence around the Wakad Chowk Metro Line 3 station opening, and the Pune Ring Road expansion approval in June 2025. Both projects directly improve Wakad’s connectivity to the rest of Pune and to Mumbai-bound traffic, and buyers in this price band tend to price in future connectivity well before it’s actually delivered.

Kasturi Epitome’s proximity to the Hinjewadi IT corridor makes it a genuine rental option for working professionals, though it’s positioned more toward mid-to-senior professionals and families than budget student PG demand.

Rental listings for Kasturi Epitome show a fairly wide range — from around ₹36,000 per month on the lower end to as much as ₹2,00,000 per month for large, fully furnished units. A furnished 2,600 sq ft 4 BHK unit with a pool view has reportedly been listed around ₹1.5 lakh a month, while smaller or unfurnished configurations sit much closer to the ₹36,000–₹85,000 range.

Possession Status

Possession is where buyer expectations and portal data diverge the most for this project, with an eight-year spread of dates showing up across different sources. Possession dates cited for Kasturi Epitome range from as early as 2017 to as late as December 2025 — an eight-year spread that almost certainly reflects Phase I (largely delivered, older stock) being confused with Phase II (still under construction in parts). Rather than quoting a single “correct” possession date, the safest approach is to check the MahaRERA portal by the specific RERA number attached to your flat, and to insist on written confirmation of Occupancy Certificate (OC) status before you make any payment beyond the token amount.

What To Ask Before You Book

Which RERA number (P52100000703 or P52100024071) applies to this specific flat? Has the Occupancy Certificate been issued for that tower/wing? If under construction, what is the current construction stage versus the promised timeline? Is the possession date in the agreement the same as what the sales team verbally quoted?

Vastu, Interiors and Move-In Planning

Vastu suitability in a project like this depends heavily on the specific unit’s facing direction, entrance placement, and floor level — not on the project as a whole. Duplex layouts in particular need careful assessment of staircase position and kitchen placement, since an internal staircase in the wrong zone is a common Vastu concern in penthouse-style units. For the larger 1,800–2,600 sq ft units, interior planning and moving logistics also need early attention, and movers handling a 2,600 sq ft duplex should be booked with adequate lead time given the volume of furniture and fittings typically involved in a luxury 4 BHK move.

Before signing anything, confirm in writing which of the two RERA numbers — P52100000703 or P52100024071 — governs your specific unit, and cross-check the developer name, project address, and promised possession date on the MahaRERA portal against your agreement. Also request the sanctioned building plan and Occupancy Certificate (if the unit is claimed ready) directly from the builder rather than relying on verbal assurances from the sales team.

Legal Checklist Before Booking

Confirm the correct RERA number for your exact unit/tower. Verify Occupancy Certificate status for ready units. Check the title deed and encumbrance certificate for the specific plot/phase. Confirm carpet area (not built-up or super built-up) matches the agreement. Get possession date penalty clauses reviewed by a property lawyer.

Home Loan and EMI Guidance

On a ₹3.5 Cr loan at an indicative 8.5% interest over 20 years, the EMI would work out to roughly ₹3.03 lakh per month. Most lenders will expect a down payment of at least 20-25% for a property in this price band, meaning buyers should be prepared with ₹70 lakh to ₹1.25 Cr in upfront funds depending on the exact unit price.

Kasturi Housing’s Track Record

The developer behind Kasturi Epitome has been active in Pune’s residential market for over two decades, though even their own project count varies depending on the source you check.

Kasturi Housing has reportedly been operating in Pune real estate for over 23 years, with other known projects including Kasturi The Balmoral Hillside in Baner and Kasturi Eon Homes in Hinjewadi. The number of completed projects cited across different sources ranges from 12 to 17 — a gap likely caused by different counting methods (delivered vs under-construction vs total launched). For buyers comparing builder credibility, this track record is reasonably solid for the Pune West corridor, though it’s still worth checking recent project reviews and RERA complaint history for any red flags.
