Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Navi Mumbai International Airport on 8 October 2025, marking a major milestone in India’s aviation infrastructure. The airport received its aerodrome licence from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) on 30 September, clearing the way for its formal launch.

The project is being developed in multiple phases by Navi Mumbai International Airport Ltd (NMIAL), a joint venture in which the Adani Group holds a 74 per cent stake, while the remaining 26 per cent is owned by the City and Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra (CIDCO), the state’s land development authority.

According to CIDCO Vice-Chairman and Managing Director Vijay Singhal, the Prime Minister will inaugurate the airport at 2:40 p.m. on 8 October, and it is expected to become operational from December 2025.

The new airport, which will bear the code ‘NMI’, will serve as the second international airport in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), easing congestion at the existing Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport.

Once fully completed, the Navi Mumbai International Airport will have the capacity to handle 90 million passengers and manage 3.2 million metric tonnes of cargo annually, positioning it among the largest aviation hubs in Asia.
