The Centre today gave an in-principle approval for financial bids or request for proposals (RPF) for the much-delayed Rs 15,000-crore Navi Mumbai International airport
The four companies include GMR Group, the GVK-led MIAL (which has the first right of refusal), Hiranandani Developers along with Zurich Airport and Mia Infrastructure with Tata Realty and Infrastructure.
The bidders will have to submit the financial bids by April end, and the developer is expected to be selected later within 2-3 months, a CIDCO official said.
The government intends to start the first flight from the airport in 2019.
