Navi Mumbai International Airport to be Inaugurated in June: Gautam Adani
Mumbai: The much-awaited Navi Mumbai International Airport is set to be inaugurated in June 2025, Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani announced. This marks a slight delay from the previously planned inauguration date of April 17.
Adani also shared his excitement about the project on social media. “A glimpse into India’s aviation future! Visited the Navi Mumbai International Airport site today—a world-class airport taking shape. Set for inauguration this June, it will redefine connectivity & growth. A true gift to India!” he posted on X.
The airport is being developed by Navi Mumbai International Airport Ltd (NMIAL), a joint venture between Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL) and the City and Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra (CIDCO), with a 74:26 partnership. The project, estimated at ₹16,700 crore, aims to ease congestion at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport and cater to the growing air travel demand in the region.
Designed to include two runways and four terminals, the airport is expected to handle up to 90 million passengers annually upon completion of all five development phases.
Earlier, in December 2024, Adani Airport Holdings Ltd CEO Arun Bansal had stated that domestic operations were expected to begin in the second half of May 2025, with international flights likely to start by the end of July.
Once operational, the Navi Mumbai International Airport is expected to significantly boost connectivity and economic growth in the region, providing a world-class aviation facility for passengers and businesses alike.
