Ways to increase borewell yield in Pune, Maharashtra - Dig a new one or deepen existing one

I stay in west side of Pune (Maharashtra). Area name is Mundhwa.
Few weeks back I have done a borewell at my house. At around 180 feet we hit some water (some reddish rock). It was very minimal quantity. Still we went ahead and digged till 290 feet. Now the yield from that borewell is around 500 liters a day. I believe in vastu, so there is very less scope to digg one more borewell in some other direction. Since there is some water in borewell, is there any way to increase the flow of water. Shall I dig one more borewell near to earlier one (5 ft distance) or can use any technique which allows to flow more water in the borewell. Borewell in the house exactly opposite to me has a good amount of water
