In this regard, NBCC has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Mumbai Port Authority on 23 December 2025 for the development of a CGO Complex on 25 acres of Mumbai Port land on a turnkey, deposit-work basis. Under the agreement, NBCC will serve as the project management consultant for the proposed development. The company said the MoU was executed in the normal course of business.
