History

Tathawade was a small, underdeveloped village before being included in the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC), but had many small-scale industries. Earlier it was ruled by a sarpanch. Prior to its development, most of the inhabitants were farmers.

Economy

The soil was mostly black-soil, which resulted in good crop production for the farmers. Because of the development of nearby Hinjawadi IT Park, real estate demand escalated and this area developed accordingly.

Demographics

The region was populated mostly by people with the 'Pawar' surname who were local landlords. But now many new and modern societies have cosmopolitan crowd from all parts of the country.

Transport

This area has the Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS). The Kiwale-Sangvi route of BRTS runs through this area.

National Highway-4 (NH-4) connects the nearby villages to the Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park in Hinjawadi.
