The Maharashtra government has deferred the submission and opening of financial bids for Dharavi Redevelopment Projects for a further date, a key government official said. The new date has not been fixed yet, he said.
Earlier, the deadline for submission of bids was extended to July 30 from July 20 as the government could not finalise the final notification for the project and some developers asked for the extension. A total of 14 consortiums are in the fray for the project to transform the Asia's largest slum into a world class financial centre.
"The government is yet to finalise development control regulation for Dharavi Project. Once the government finalises the notification, it will issue a new date,'' Gautam Chatterjee, chief excutive of Dharavi Development Authority, told this newspaper today.
