How much weight each figure carries

Punawale's median rests on 14,560 registered agreements across 156 projects, and Wakad's on 13,124 across 120. The agreements behind them run from March 2017 to September 2202 in Punawale and February 2017 to September 2026 in Wakad, so neither figure is a snapshot of one quarter.

Both numbers are medians of what individual buyers registered, per square foot of RERA carpet area. They are not asking prices, and they are not a forecast: a median is a description of agreements already signed. Where the two areas differ in the mix of flats being sold, some of the gap between them is that mix rather than the ground. How these are worked out sets out the rules, including what is excluded and why.

Delivery risk

Punawale has 2 projects past a completion date the promoter filed, and Wakad has 6. A moved date is more common than a missed one: 115 in Punawale and 73 in Wakad have revised the date they first registered.
