According to a recent statement from the airport operator, this ambitious project will not only enhance the passenger experience but also set new benchmarks in sustainability and innovation.
Once the redevelopment is complete, the new terminal will have the capacity to handle 20 million passengers annually, marking a significant 42 percent increase in capacity.
This reflects the growing status of Mumbai as an international aviation hub.
The new terminal, spanning over two million square feet, is expected to become a model of digitization and consumer convenience.
The redevelopment of Terminal 1 will be carried out in phases to minimize disruption to airport operations.
The initial phase involves the demolition of the existing structure, scheduled to begin in November 2025.
This will be followed by the construction of the new terminal.
Throughout the project, the airport operator has assured that passenger convenience and safety will remain a top priority.
To manage the capacity gap created by the demolition of T1, CSMIA Terminal 2 (T2) and the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport, set to be operational in 2025, will work together to accommodate passengers and flight schedules, meeting the growing demands of both Mumbai City and the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).
Jeet Adani, Director of Adani Airport Holdings Limited, commented, 'The team at CSMIA is working tirelessly with our stakeholders to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption to daily operations and passenger experience.
This redevelopment is not just about expanding capacity; it is about future-proofing our city's place on the global stage.
Our priority remains to deliver the exceptional service that our passengers have come to expect.'
Mumbai International Airport Limited (MIAL) is managed by Adani Airport Holdings Limited (AAHL), a subsidiary of Adani Enterprises, the flagship company of the globally diversified Adani Group.
MIAL is a public-private partnership (PPP) venture, with AAHL holding a 74 percent stake and the Airports Authority of India holding the remaining 26 percent.
