Pune Flood & Climate Risk — Project Risk Map 2026
Pune's urban expansion toward Wagholi, Hadapsar, and Kharadi has placed new residential inventory near the Mula-Mutha river flood plain. This page maps flood risk across Brickplot's verified Pune project catalogue.

Frequently Asked Questions — Pune Flood Risk
Which localities in Pune have the highest flood risk?
Brickplot's current Pune dataset shows no projects inside a documented flood hotspot. Most are in low-risk or safe zones.
What counts as a flood hotspot?
A flood hotspot is a location a municipal authority has itself recorded as flood-prone — for Bangalore, BBMP’s vulnerable stormwater-drain and flood-prone-area records; elsewhere the equivalent city or state flood-hazard mapping. Brickplot measures each project’s coordinates against that hotspot set rather than judging by locality name. We deliberately do not call these “CWC Category-A” zones: CWC Category-A is a major-river flood-forecast class, and cities that flood from lake-catchment overflow and storm-drain failure — Bangalore chief among them — do not carry a CWC river category at all.
How does Brickplot factor flood risk into project scores?
Flood classification feeds directly into Axis 6 (Location, Infrastructure & Climate Risk, weight 14). A project inside a documented flood hotspot scores lower on that axis and cannot carry a Buy verdict, whatever its total — unless the builder has documented engineered mitigation (stormwater-drain upgrades, raised plinth, rainwater harvesting). The score cap that applied until 10 August 2026 was retired. The Buy suppression is applied mechanically with no editorial override.
What share of Pune projects sit inside a documented flood hotspot?
0% (0 of 92) scored Pune residential projects sit inside a documented flood hotspot in Brickplot's verified dataset. The majority of scored projects are in low-risk or safe zones.

Classification is geo-derived: each project’s coordinates are measured against the municipal flood-hotspot records cited above, then cross-checked against city flood-management plans and the project’s RERA filing.
