Runwal Realty, the brand under which Runwal Developers Ltd. builds, traces its origins to 1978, when Subhash Runwal set up the group in Mumbai. Runwal Realty, the brand of Runwal Developers Ltd., has been developing residential, commercial and retail real estate across Mumbai, Mumbai Metropolitan Region and Pune since 1978, and has delivered 35 completed projects spanning 11.22 million square feet. The company is today led by Promoter and Managing Director Sandeep Runwal, carrying forward a business his father founded with a single Mumbai land parcel decades earlier. In Pune, that footprint extends westward to Pirangut in Mulshi taluka, where the group's Song of Life County occupies a quieter, lower-density corner of its portfolio compared to its Mumbai towers and Thane townships.
Song of Life County sits in Uravade, within the Pirangut belt of Mulshi taluka. The project carries a price range of roughly ₹2.43 Cr to ₹2.86 Cr, with possession having started from November 2012, making it a completed, ready-to-move villa community rather than an under-construction launch. The development comprises 6 units spread across 3 BHK configurations, with built-up sizes ranging from 2,311 sq ft to 2,716 sq ft, designed as exclusive villas. These villas are positioned near Bharati Vidyapeeth College of Engineering and Symbiosis International deemed university, placing the community within reach of established educational institutions that also draw faculty and staff housing demand to the belt. The low unit count and villa format set this project apart from the high-rise apartment stock that dominates much of Pirangut's newer supply, reflecting a low-density, land-intensive format that is harder to replicate as the locality densifies.
Pirangut's relevance to a villa buyer rests on its position relative to Pune's IT economy rather than its own commercial base. The locality offers easy access to the Mumbai-Bangalore Highway and is well linked to localities like Hinjewadi, Kothrud, Deccan, Shivaji Nagar and Baner. An internal arterial road links Pirangut directly to Hinjewadi Phase 3, shortening the commute for residents working in Pune's largest IT park without requiring a home inside the congested IT corridor itself. National Highway 48 connects the area to the Old Mumbai Highway as well, giving Song of Life County residents a direct road link back toward Mumbai, relevant for a developer whose primary base and largest projects remain in the MMR.
Two projects are reshaping how accessible Pirangut will be over the next several years. The Pune Ring Road project, spanning 170 km, is intended to address heavy traffic in the city, with land acquisition for the western phase targeted for completion around December 2026. Separately, Pune Metro Line 3 was under construction as of March 2025, with the metro expected to cut down commute times toward Pune city centre and other parts of the metro network considerably compared to the current 30-45 minute road journey to Hinjewadi. For a completed, low-rise villa product like Song of Life County, these are meaningful demand tailwinds rather than construction-period disruptions, since the community itself is not tied to any of these works.
Apartment pricing in Pirangut gives a sense of where a villa product like Song of Life County sits relative to the wider locality. Apartments in Pirangut are currently priced at an average of around ₹5,100 per square foot, with year-on-year price growth of about 12.1%. Fringe pockets of west Pune, including Pirangut, are seen by analysts as carrying room for further appreciation: fringe areas like Pirangut and Marunji, where prices are ₹4,000 to ₹6,000 per square foot, carry the most remaining upside but also the most execution risk tied to the pace of ring-road and metro delivery. Villa plots and low-density formats in such belts have typically moved at a premium to standard apartment rates given their land content, which is part of what differentiates a project like Song of Life County from the apartment towers that make up most new Pirangut supply.
Song of Life County is a small, completed chapter in a much larger Pune ambition for the group. The residential portfolio today spans ultra-luxury sky mansions at Malabar Hill, sea-view residences in Worli and Parel, township living in Thane, and a 26-acre mixed-use development in Chinchwad, Pune. Runwal The Central Park in Pimpri-Chinchwad, spread across 26 acres, weaves residential towers, a large-format mall and open landscapes into a single integrated township conceived as PCMC's tallest development with 14 towers. That project carries its own RERA registration under RERA No. P52100025260, positioned in a rapidly growing western Pune suburb with strong infrastructure and connectivity. Read together, Song of Life County and Central Park bracket the two ends of Runwal's Pune strategy: a compact, low-rise villa cluster in Pirangut on one side, and a large vertical township in Chinchwad on the other, both anchored to arterial roads feeding the Mumbai-Pune corridor.
A buyer evaluating Runwal Realty in Pirangut is essentially evaluating a completed, low-density villa product from a developer whose scale and reputation were built in Mumbai and Thane over nearly five decades, and whose current Pune energy is concentrated in Chinchwad's larger township format. Song of Life County's six 3 BHK villas represent an established, delivered asset in a locality that continues to benefit from Hinjewadi's IT demand, NH48 connectivity, and infrastructure works such as the Pune Ring Road and Metro Line 3 that are still being completed around it.
