MMRDA Signs $12 Billion MoU with Brookfield to Transform MMR

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Brookfield, a global investment firm, to invest $12 billion in developing the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) into a global economic hub over the next five to seven years. This landmark deal marks a significant milestone as MMRDA celebrates its golden jubilee and continues attracting investments to shape the region's future. Highlights of the MoU: • Focus on Metro projects, roads, bridges, urban infrastructure, real estate, Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), Land Value Capture, and sustainable blue and green infrastructure. • Major investments directed towards Mumbai 3.0 (KSC New Town, covering 323.24 sq. km.) and Special Planning Areas (SPAs) in the northern (1,006.76 sq. km.) and southern (673.33 sq. km.) parts of MMR. • The initiative will include Residential, Commercial, and Mixed-use developments, Logistics Parks, Data Centres, and Global Capability Centres (GCCs), as well as improvements in physical, digital, and social infrastructure. This investment aligns with Maharashtra’s goal of becoming a $1 trillion economy and supports India’s ambition to reach a $5 trillion economy within the next 3–4 years. The MoU is expected to contribute to a $300 billion economy within MMR and create 3 million new jobs by 2030. Brookfield, headquartered in Toronto, is a global leader in alternative asset management and infrastructure, with expertise in real estate, renewable energy, and business services. Their involvement will bring strategic investments, financial strength, and operational expertise to this transformative project.
