Pune,
Maharashtra – 07th March 2026 : In a
continued effort to build inclusive and future-ready living ecosystems, Paranjape Schemes Construction
Private Limited, Maharashtra’s leading real estate developer
has announced a collaboration with Tarangan Foundation. This strategic
partnership for Swaniketan, India’s first exclusive residential community
designed specifically for differently-abled individuals and their families will
ensure structured assessment process and long-term care.
Developed
under the Paranjape Special Projects Division (PSPD), Swaniketan has been
conceptualised as a long-term home where families can live with dignity,
security, and community support. The project integrates thoughtfully designed
family units and assisted hostel facilities, along with structured common
infrastructure, including a Vocational Centre, Therapy Spaces, a Day Care
Centre, recreational amenities, and dedicated caregiver support on each floor.
As
part of this initiative, Tarangan Foundation will anchor the structured
screening and assessment process for families seeking to be part of the
community. The screening framework includes detailed health and psychosocial
assessments, family consultations, financial preparedness evaluation, and legal
planning measures to ensure long-term continuity of care through private trusts
and structured succession planning.
Amit
Paranjape, Director – Business Development, Paranjape Schemes Construction
Private Limited, said: “Swaniketan is envisioned not just as a
residential community, but as a secure, lifelong ecosystem for
differently-abled individuals and their families. A robust assessment and
screening process including understanding each individual’s care needs, support
requirements, and long-term financial preparedness is essential to ensure that
residents can be supported sustainably over time. Our collaboration with
Tarangan Foundation brings specialised expertise in evaluation and care
planning, helping ensure that every family entering Swaniketan is aligned with
its purpose and equipped for lifelong support, dignity, and continuity of
care.”
Beena
Modak - Director of Tarangan Foundation added:
For many parents of individuals with developmental needs, the most pressing
concern is ‘what after us.’ Swaniketan, pioneered by Paranjape Schemes, is
giving families a path forward by creating a purpose-built, secure community
designed for lifelong support. Our partnership allows us to work closely with
families through structured assessments, guidance, and care planning, ensuring
residents are prepared not just for today, but for a stable and dignified
future. Together, we are helping build an ecosystem that brings reassurance,
continuity, and renewed hope to families.
This
collaboration marks a critical step in strengthening Swaniketan’s care-led
ecosystem by integrating rigorous assessment, professional support, and
long-term continuity planning within a purpose-built residential environment.
It reinforces Swaniketan’s vision of creating not just housing, but a secure
and sustainable future for differently-abled individuals and their families.
Reflecting the strong and deeply felt need for such a model, over 200 families
have already undergone structured screening, with more than 75 families
shortlisted in the first phase ahead of launch—underscoring Swaniketan’s
emergence as a pioneering and much-needed solution for inclusive, lifelong
community living in India.
