Urban Morphology approaches human settlement over the long period of time with formation and transformation. It is a continuous building process of successive generations with land subdivision, building construction and infrastructure development. Analysis of physical form which focuses on building pattern, street pattern collectively referred as urban grain. This paper aims to study the effects of haphazard fringe development in Pimpri-Chinchwad, Pune on various services like transportation, road network, plumbing, electricity, accessibility etc. It also addresses the present morphological structure of the city fringe with its positive and negative aspects in terms of planning. Design methodology for this research will be based on examining secondary literature in the form of development, planning reports, surveys, analysis and findings, context analysis to understand the haphazard development in the periphery of Pimpri Chinchwad, Pune. Cartographic analysis will be done to understand/observe city boundaries and its development. This Research found significant development in and around the boundary of Pimpri Chinchwad, Pune. Research limitations will be to understand the development pattern in the fringe area, research will be restricted in the periphery from the PCMC (Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation) boundary, Pune. Practical implications would help to do futuristic planning development in the urban areas with the help of positive and negative aspects from the study.
