Hi Ramesh, Thanks for your compliment. Surely, Pune does not equal to the level of Banaglore, Chennai or Hyderabad, but is considered next to it. Pune still offers a higher oppertunity for IT, BT and auto industries than many other cities in India, one can find it with the govt statistics and investment proposals in last one decade. Mumbai is still the leader and much ahead of Chennai, Hyderabad and even Bangalore when is comes to commerce other than IT and BT based industries. IT/ITES based industries in Hyderabad is eight fold smaller than that of Bangalore. So for comparison sake, when one levels Bangalore (IT export @ ~85000 crore) with Hyderbad (IT export @ ~10000 crore), Pune (IT export @ ~9000 crore)is defintely in edge with Hyderabad though someone may not like it as a city. In BT and Auto industries also the figure would be similar or may be a larger figure for Pune in auto industries.
