CATIA Course for Mechanical Engineers in Pune (Updated May 2026) | ABC Trainings Wagholi (Updated May 2026)
The automotive and aerospace manufacturing sectors in Pune are on a hiring spree — and if you're a mechanical engineer without CATIA on your CV, you're leaving ₹4–8 LPA offers on the table. The AURIC industrial corridor alone is bringing ₹71,343 crore of fresh investment and 62,405 new jobs to Maharashtra's manufacturing belt, and a massive chunk of those roles require CATIA-certified designers. Here's the thing — CATIA isn't just another software tool. At companies like Bajaj Auto, Tata Motors Ranjangaon, and Mercedes-Benz India, CATIA V5 is the language your design files speak every single day. What most people don't realize is that hiring managers at these firms can spot a CATIA expert in the first technical round, and that one skill separates the shortlisted from the rejected. At ABC Trainings Wagholi, we've trained 1,000+ mechanical students who now work at exactly these companies. Our batch sizes stay small, every student builds a real CATIA project before placement interviews, and our trainer has 12 years of hands-on industry experience.
- CATIA V5 course covering Part Design, Assembly, Surface Modelling (GSD/FSD) and Drafting — 3–4 months
- Freshers earn ₹3.5–5 LPA; experienced designers ₹7–12 LPA in Pune (AmbitionBox 2024)
- Past batches placed at Bajaj Auto Akurdi, Tata Motors Ranjangaon, Mahindra Chakan, Mercedes-Benz Chakan
- CMYKPY scheme — up to ₹10,000 monthly stipend for eligible Maharashtra residents
- Weekend and weekday batches at Wagholi — 5 min from Kharadi Tech Park
What You Actually Learn in the CATIA Course (Full Syllabus)
We cover Part Design, Assembly Design, Drafting, Surface Design (GSD and FSD), Sheet Metal Design, and DMU Kinematics. You also get hands-on with Generative Structural Analysis so you can run basic stress simulations right inside CATIA. The curriculum builds from sketcher fundamentals all the way to full assembly models that mirror what Tata Motors and Bajaj actually use in production. Trust me, skipping the surface module is where most students fall short — we make sure that doesn't happen here.

CATIA Salaries in Pune — Real Numbers, Not Guesses
Based on AmbitionBox and Glassdoor data from 2024: a fresher CATIA Designer in Pune earns ₹3.5–5 LPA at Tier 1 automotive suppliers. With 2–3 years of experience, you're looking at ₹7–10 LPA.

Compare that with a plain AutoCAD draughtsman at ₹2–3.5 LPA and the math is obvious — CATIA training pays for itself within the first two months of your first job.

CATIA V5 vs CATIA V6 — Which One Should You Learn in 2026?
The good news is this is simpler than it sounds. CATIA V5 is the shop-floor standard at Indian OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers — it's what Bajaj Auto, Tata Motors, and Mahindra run on their production floors today. CATIA V6 (3DEXPERIENCE platform) is increasingly used at global OEMs like Mercedes, Airbus India, and Boeing India. We teach V5 as the core foundation, then introduce the 3DEXPERIENCE platform so you're future-proof. Recruiters in Pune hire primarily on V5 proficiency, so you're job-ready from Day 1 of course completion.
