GVK-led Mumbai International Airport Limited and GMR Group, which run the country's busiest airports, today submitted financial bids for the Rs 16,000 crore Navi Mumbai international airport. Today was the last day for the bid submission after two extensions granted the City and Industrial and Development Corporation (CIDCO).

Bids were received on Monday afternoon, CIDCO officials said. MIAL has the right of first refusal and will be allowed to match the bid if it is 10% lower than competition.

The GMR Group and Tata Realty will not bid for the Navi Mumbai airport project, citing “onerous” bid conditions, among other reasons. “We are not bidding on account of project implementation and execution challenges as well as onerous timelines and bid conditions,” a GMR Group spokesperson said.

This means there will be only two companies — GVK-led Mumbai International Airport (MIAL) and Hiranandani Developers-Zurich Airport consortium — in the race for the Rs 16,000-crore project.
