NAVI MUMBAI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
ASIA'S LARGEST INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA)
is an under construction greenfield international airport being built at Ulwe Kopar-Panvel in Maharashtra, India. It will be the second international airport for the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, functioning alongside Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSIA) as India's first urban multi-airport system.
The first phase of the airport will be able to handle 20 million passengers per annum. It will be expanded to its final capacity to handle more than 90 million passengers per annum.
Texas-based Jacobs Engineering Group will chart the final masterplan for the airport, while the airport passenger terminal and air traffic control (ATC) tower will be designed by London-based Zaha Hadid Architects.
The ₹160 billion (US$2.2 billion) (Rs 16,700 crore) project is being executed by Navi Mumbai International Airport Limited (NMIAL), a special purpose entity formed by the GVK group and City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) which will hold 74 percent and 26 percent equity shares of NMIAL respectively.
CIDCO is the nodal government agency for the project which will be built through a public–private partnership (PPP) on a design, build, finance, operate and transfer (DBFOT) basis.
The airport covers an area of 1,160 hectares (4.5 sq mi).
The Navi Mumbai International Airport is expected to be operational in September 2021.
