Poona (Pune), in Maharashtra, was home to one of the principal concentrations of Bene Israel outside Bombay. The presence of garrisons and institutions during the British colonial period attracted many Bene Israel, who served notably in the army and administration and established themselves in various professions. The community had synagogues and a religious life organized according to the customs adopted by the Bene Israel. During the second half of the twentieth century, the majority of its members emigrated to Israel, greatly reducing the local community.
