The City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) is finalizing a master plan to develop a new city, Navi Mumbai Aerocity, around the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport.

The proposed Aerocity, spanning 667 acres adjacent to the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA), will accommodate a mix of residential, commercial, retail, mixed-use, and industrial buildings. When completed, it will mark a significant milestone in the city's urban development.
CIDCO is currently in the process of selecting a consultant to prepare the master plan and provide transaction advisory services for the proposed development. This consultant will play a crucial role in ensuring that the project aligns with the government's vision for sustainable and integrated growth.
In addition to the Aerocity, CIDCO is planning an Educity, a Medicity, and an International Corporate Park within a 10-kilometer radius of the new airport. These complementary developments are designed to create an integrated ecosystem for education, healthcare, and global businesses. The Navi Mumbai International Airport is set to be inaugurated this week, further accelerating the region's transformation.
These complementary developments are expected to boost real estate demand across Navi Mumbai, positioning the airport precinct as a major hub for investment and urban growth. The Maharashtra government has fast-tracked the project in line with the airport's commercialization strategy. The proposed plan is likely to allocate around 123 acres each for residential, commercial, and retail purposes, with the remaining land reserved for mixed-use and industrial projects.
Experts predict that the finalization of the master plan will have a significant impact on Navi Mumbai's real estate market. Residential demand is expected to rise sharply as the Aerocity, airport, and allied developments generate employment and stimulate economic activity. Mid- and premium-segment housing is likely to see increased interest from professionals in aviation, logistics, education, healthcare, and corporate sectors.
The seamless last-mile connectivity and strategic positioning of the airport are setting new benchmarks for urban development, economic opportunity, and global connectivity, reaffirming Navi Mumbai's emergence on the world stage. According to Karan Singh Sodi, a senior managing director at JLL India, 'With the launch of this airport, the entire Panvel-Ulwe corridor is expected to grow significantly across multiple asset classes.'
This integrated approach to urban planning and development is poised to transform Navi Mumbai into a vibrant, economically dynamic region, attracting both domestic and international investments.
