Which plan applies in Navi Mumbai today

CIDCO built Navi Mumbai as a new town, so much of it is still planned through CIDCO's development plan and its node-by-node nodal plans. The Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) area now has its first own development plan. That plan has been through public objections and is waiting for final state sanction. Both CIDCO and NMMC areas follow the statewide UDCPR for building rules. The airport-influence belt around the new airport (NAINA) has separate regulations. NMMC grants building permission within its limits, and CIDCO does so in the nodes it still administers.

Questions about the Navi Mumbai master plan

Is Kharghar under NMMC or CIDCO?

Kharghar, Kamothe, Kalamboli and nearby nodes lie outside NMMC. Panvel Municipal Corporation provides their civic services, but CIDCO still plans its own land there. Check the node plan and the planning authority before you buy.

Has the NMMC development plan been approved?

The plan was published in 2022, drew more than 16,000 objections, and went to the state for sanction in 2024. We could not find a sanction notification, so treat it as a draft.

What is NAINA?

NAINA is the notified belt of villages around the new Navi Mumbai airport, and CIDCO is its planning authority. It has its own plan and regulations, separate from UDCPR, and is mostly developed through town planning schemes.

Which building rules apply in Navi Mumbai?

UDCPR 2020 applies in NMMC and CIDCO areas. NAINA follows its own DCPR, and airport height limits apply near the airport.
