Field notes
Central-Maharashtra orange-capital with a growing IT and logistics base (MIHAN SEZ). Same e-Tourist visa story as Mumbai. Civil Lines and Ramdaspeth are the dense walkable pockets. Coworking is thin compared to Pune or Bangalore (a handful of spots). The structural filter is the summer — May regularly hits 45°C, and the city visibly slows. Winters (December–February) are the comfort window. Cheap rents, reliable fibre.
