Mukesh Ambani-promoted Navi Mumbai SEZ has sought government permission to set up helipads and skywalks at its special economic zones (SEZ) on the outskirts of the metropolis.
The SEZ firm co-promoted by Ambani's close associate Anand Jain has plans to build helipad at four and skywalks at five of its SEZs at Navi Mumbai.
The decision on the company's request will be taken up by the Board of Approval (BoA) in the Commerce Ministry at its meeting on August 11, an official said.
As per the proposals submitted before the BoA, the helipads will come up in the "non-processing" areas of the three SEZs for IT and ITeS, and one for the multi-services.
Three of these are located at Ulwe, and one at Kalamboli -- both in the Navi Mumbai area.
Besides, the skywalks would link the processing and non-processing areas of the tax-free enclaves.
The other operations that the Navi Mumbai SEZ seeks to establish in the zones include cafeteria, food courts and restaurants, the official said.
Banks and ATMs have also been planned for which approvals have been sought.
