With the Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) set to be inaugurated today, housing demand in nearby micro-markets has surged. The good news: you can still find 1 and 2 BHK options under ₹1 crore in pockets like Ulwe, Taloja, Kharghar, Panvel, and Dronagiri.
NMIA, a large greenfield airport coming up in Ulwe, is expected to decongest Mumbai’s CSMIA and catalyse both commercial and residential growth across Navi Mumbai. New and ongoing connectivity upgrades, such as the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (Atal Setu), coastal road improvements, and metro extensions, are strengthening the case for end-users and investors alike.

Yes. Areas like Ulwe, Taloja, Kharghar, and Dronagiri still have 1 and 2 BHK options under ₹1 crore. These can be good for long-term rental income, especially once the airport becomes operational. However, yields may be modest initially until infrastructure and connectivity fully develop.
These areas are developing fast and improving each year. Basic amenities and connectivity are expanding, but some pockets still face water supply and infrastructure delays. Law and order are largely stable, with new police posts planned. Livability should continue to rise as the airport and metro projects progress.
