Navi Mumbai International Airport will become the latest addition to the Adani Group’s expanding airport portfolio, further strengthening its presence in India’s aviation infrastructure. Besides the two airports at Mumbai, Adani Group operates six other airports at Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Guwahati, Thiruvananthapuram, Jaipur and Mangaluru.

The Navi Mumbai airport is scheduled to commence commercial operations on December 25. It is being developed by Navi Mumbai International Airport Ltd (NMIAL), in which the Adani Group holds a 74 per cent stake. Built at an initial cost of Rs 19,650 crore, the first phase will have a capacity to handle 20 million passengers annually. The airport has plans to scale up to 90 million passengers over time, easing capacity constraints at Mumbai’s existing airport. Adani Group had acquired the Mumbai airport from GVK Group.
