Panchshil Realty has teamed up with Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation Limited (Maha Metro) and Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) to launch the Metro-Integrated Employee Feeder e-Shuttle Service. This innovative service connects the Ramwadi Metro Station, located near Phoenix Mall on Nagar Road, to Panchshil’s major office parks in Kharadi, including EON Free Zone I and II and the World Trade Center (WTC).

The service was officially launched on June 19, 2024, with key representatives from PMPML, Maha Metro, office park occupants, and Panchshil attending the event.
