The Navi Mumbai international airport is unlikely to meet its 2019 inaugural deadline with three of the qualified bidders raising questions about the timeline and cost overruns involved in executing the Rs 16,000-crore project. The four bidders who had qualified for the project are Tata Realty & Infrastructure, Hiranandani Group, GMR Infrastructure and GVK Power & Infrastructure. The first three have expressed serious concerns on completing the project by 2019. GVK Infrastructure is the only firm that has not expressed reservations to meet the 42-month deadline which the state government plans to set.
