Navi Mumbai Airport Secures 405 Flats for Staff at Panvel

Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIAL) has taken 405 flats at Panvel in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region from real estate firm Wadhwa Group for people working at the upcoming airport. The new airport is expected to be inaugurated next month.

NMIAL has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with The Wadhwa Group to secure 405 ready-to-move-in flats on a 'leave and license' basis in its township 'Wadhwa Wise City' at Panvel for airport personnel and their families from October 2025, the real estate company said in a statement on Wednesday.

A leave and license agreement is a legal document that allows a property owner (licensor) to grant temporary usage rights of their property to another party (licensee) without transferring ownership.

Sandeep Sonthalia, CEO of The Wadhwa Group, said, 'The opening of the Navi Mumbai International Airport is a monumental event for the region. We are witnessing an uptick in demand for apartments, bungalows, and plots and are thrilled to partner with NMIAL to address this need.'

Wadhwa Group has developed many housing and commercial projects in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, contributing significantly to the region's growth and development. The acquisition of these flats by NMIAL is a strategic move to ensure that the airport's staff are well-accommodated and can perform their duties effectively.

The new Navi Mumbai International Airport is poised to be a game-changer for the region, offering enhanced connectivity and boosting economic activities. The availability of well-furnished and conveniently located flats will undoubtedly make the transition smoother for the airport staff and their families.
