Navi Mumbai airport project throws builders in a quandary

07 Jul 2022 CW Team

The Maharashtra government’s town planning and infrastructure development authority and the Airports Authority of India (AAI) will soon take a final decision on height restriction for real estate projects in the vicinity of the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport.

A meeting scheduled in the next two weeks is expected to provide guidance on the matter that has impacted projects in the city for the last six months, people aware of the development told The Economic Times.

The City and Industrial Development Corporation (Cidco) has been following up with AAI and the central government on the matter regarding height no objection certificate (NOC) of buildings in the Navi Mumbai airport project area.

Several approved real estate projects in Mumbai’s satellite city are in a limbo as AAI has announced height restrictions of 55.1 metres above sea mean level (ASML) - 12-13 floors in a building - around a 20-km radius of the upcoming airport.

Until last year, Cidco was in charge of issuing height certificates to realty developers in Navi Mumbai. However, AAI now holds the authority to issue these height clearance certificates.

The exact location for the radar system for the proposed airport is yet to be finalised.
