HCC, through its group company Lavasa Corporation, has already invested around Rs 2,500 crore in the project, Lavasa Corporation President Rajgopal Nogja told reporters.
"We have done an investment of around Rs 2,500 crore in the company so far. Our investment over the next 10-12 years is likely to be around Rs 50,000 crore," Nogja added.

The company has entered into an agreement with renowned biologist Janine Benyus to incorporate an 'international model for architecture inspired by nature' in the project.
