Largest upcoming projects in Mumbai and Maharashtra
The table below lists the highest-value projects our database currently shows for this scope. It spans rail, telecom, port, refinery and expressway sectors — a cross-section of the infrastructure and industrial pipeline that suppliers and contractors should be monitoring.
| Project | Promoter | Location | Cost | Stage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Optical Fibre Cables Network | Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited | Maharashtra | Rs 1,71,000 crore | Construction Started |
| High Speed Rail Corridor (Bullet Train) — Mumbai–Ahmedabad | National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited | Mumbai, Maharashtra | Rs 1,08,000 crore | Construction Started |
| Jaitapur Nuclear Power Project — Unit I | Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) | Ratnagiri, Maharashtra | Rs 1,00,000 crore | Under Approvals |
| Vadhavan Port — Phase I & II | Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust Authority (JNPT) | Palghar, Maharashtra | Rs 76,220 crore | Approvals Received |
| Telecom Services | Bharti Airtel Limited | Maharashtra | Rs 60,000 crore | Construction Started |
| Petroleum Products Refinery | Ratnagiri Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited (RRPC) | Ratnagiri, Maharashtra | Rs 60,000 crore | Under Approvals / Planning |
| Green Steel Plant | JSW Steel Limited | Raigad, Maharashtra | Rs 60,000 crore | Hold |
| Western Dedicated Freight Corridor | Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India Limited | Raigarh (MAH), Maharashtra | Rs 46,178 crore | Construction Started |
| Maharashtra Samruddhi Mahamarg Expressway | Nagpur–Mumbai Super Communication Expressway | Mumbai, Maharashtra | Rs 49,247 crore | Construction Started |
| Ammonia Plant | GAIL India Limited | Nagpur, Maharashtra | Rs 10,000 crore | Under Approvals |
| Hydroelectric Power Project | Adani Renewable Energy Fifty Two Limited | Pune, Maharashtra | Rs 7,048 crore | Under Approvals |
| Cogeneration Power Plant — Expansion | Baramati Agro Limited | Ahmednagar, Maharashtra | Rs 529 crore | Planning |
Several of the largest projects are already in Construction Started stage, which means civil and mechanical work is live and procurement windows are open now. The Vadhavan Port project has received approvals and is likely to move to active tendering shortly. The JSW Green Steel Plant at Raigad remains on Hold — a signal to monitor rather than pursue immediately, but one worth watching given its Rs 60,000 crore scale. The Ratnagiri refinery complex appears in our records under multiple entries at different stages, reflecting the phased regulatory process around this long-running industrial initiative. Suppliers to industrial projects in Maharashtra should pay close attention to the chemicals and energy sub-sectors, where several new entries have appeared recently.
Where upcoming projects in Mumbai and Maharashtra are concentrated
Pune leads all Maharashtra cities in project count, followed by Thane and Mumbai Suburban — a distribution that reflects the decentralisation of industrial and infrastructure investment beyond the island city, as the chart below shows.
For contractors and equipment suppliers focused specifically on upcoming construction projects in Mumbai, the Mumbai and Mumbai Suburban districts together account for close to 2,000 tracked projects. Thane — which borders Mumbai and hosts a dense industrial belt — adds another 1,476. Nagpur is significant for central and eastern Maharashtra, particularly given the Samruddhi Mahamarg expressway terminus and the new GAIL ammonia project. Raigarh is one to watch for port-related and freight corridor supply chains. Nashik and Solapur follow, each with hundreds of active project entries spanning manufacturing, water infrastructure and roadways. Firms that limit prospecting to the city of Mumbai alone are missing the majority of the state's active pipeline.
What stage are these projects at — and what that means for buyers
Stage distribution is the clearest guide to when a supplier or contractor will be needed. The breakdown across all Maharashtra projects tracked — including completed and cancelled ones — is shown below.
Under Approvals is the single largest active stage at 4,787 projects: these are not yet tendering, but they represent the early identification opportunity. Firms that register interest, complete pre-qualification or build relationships with project owners at this stage face far less competition than those who wait for a tender notice. Construction Started projects — 3,701 in the database — are buying right now: civil subcontracts, structural steel, electrical equipment, mechanical plant, safety systems and logistics are all live procurement categories. Planning-stage projects (1,969) are still defining scope, making them ideal for consultants, feasibility engineers and technology vendors who want to shape specifications. Approvals Received projects (316) are in the window between regulatory clearance and construction commencement — typically when EPC bids and equipment long-lead orders are placed. Projects marked Nearly Completion (287) are buying commissioning services, instrumentation, testing equipment and snag-list contractors. The infrastructure project pipeline in Maharashtra alone runs to hundreds of entries across roads, rail and urban utilities.
Recent additions: new industrial and infrastructure projects added to our database
Fifty-six projects were added to Projects India's Maharashtra database in the 90 days to 12 October 2026. Selected highlights are listed below.
- Battery Energy Storage System, Mumbai — Promoter: Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited. Stage: Under Approvals. A new entry for grid-scale storage in Mumbai, relevant to battery integrators, civil contractors and electrical systems suppliers.
- API & API Intermediates Plant, Tarapur, Palghar — Promoter: Aadi Rishabh Chemicals LLP. Cost: Rs 10 crore. Stage: Construction Started. A small but active pharmaceutical chemicals project at the Tarapur industrial belt, which hosts dozens of process industry units.
- Coal Washery, Chamorshi, Gadchiroli — Promoter: Sufalam Metals Private Limited. Stage: Under Approvals. A mining and mineral processing lead for eastern Maharashtra.
- Cogeneration Power Plant & Sugar Plant Expansion, Jamkhed, Ahmednagar — Promoter: Baramati Agro Limited. Combined recorded cost: Rs 529 crore. Stage: Planning. A dual entry covering both the power and agro-processing sub-sectors.
- Single Super Phosphate Plant, Kurkumbh, Pune — Promoter: R. K. Agro Industries. Cost: Rs 417 crore. Stage: Under Approvals. An agrochemical manufacturing project at the Kurkumbh industrial zone near Pune.
- Hydroelectric Power Project, Pune — Promoter: Adani Renewable Energy Fifty Two Limited. Cost: Rs 7,048 crore. Stage: Under Approvals. One of the largest recently added entries, relevant to civil, mechanical and electrical contractors in the renewable energy space.
- Ammonia Plant, Nagpur (Vidarbha) — Promoter: GAIL India Limited. Cost: Rs 10,000 crore. Stage: Under Approvals. A major new chemical industry project in central Maharashtra, with implications for process equipment suppliers, EPC firms and logistics providers across the region.
These additions span chemicals, energy, agro-processing and mineral processing — a reminder that new industrial projects in Maharashtra are not limited to the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. Teams tracking only Mumbai-city projects will miss a large share of the state's active pipeline. For power-related leads specifically, see the power projects database for Maharashtra.
Most active project promoters in Maharashtra
Knowing who is driving project activity helps suppliers target their outreach. The chart below shows the promoters with the most projects in our Maharashtra database.
The Public Works Department, Maharashtra leads with 862 projects worth about Rs 33,483 crore — making it the single most important client for road, bridge and civil contractors in the state. The Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) runs 223 projects worth about Rs 47,750 crore, covering urban infrastructure, water, drainage and public buildings. Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has 122 projects with a combined recorded cost of about Rs 4.64 lakh crore — an outsized value reflecting its role in metro rail, road and mixed-use development across the region. Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company and Maharashtra State Electricity Transmission Company together account for nearly 380 projects, representing a continuous pipeline for electrical equipment and civil contractors. Central Railway's 143 projects carry a combined cost of about Rs 91,322 crore. Any firm selling civil construction, electrical, signalling or rolling stock products should have Central Railway and MMRDA relationships as a core part of their Maharashtra business development. You can search the full contractor and supplier directory to find firms already active with these promoters.
What this means for suppliers and contractors
The Maharashtra project database — 12,881 entries and growing — is large enough that undirected prospecting wastes time. The practical approach is to filter by stage, sub-sector and geography before approaching any project owner.
- Construction Started (3,701 projects): Immediate procurement is live. Civil subcontractors, structural steel fabricators, electrical panel manufacturers, HVAC suppliers, MEP contractors and logistics providers should be presenting credentials now. Waiting for a published tender at this stage often means missing the shortlist.
- Approvals Received (316 projects): EPC bids and long-lead equipment orders are typically placed around this stage. Turbine, transformer, compressor and process equipment suppliers — particularly for the power and chemicals sectors — should be engaging owners directly.
- Under Approvals (4,787 projects): The largest pool. Consultants, technology licensors, environmental engineers, surveyors and project finance advisors find this stage most productive. Early positioning here shapes the procurement structure that follows.
- Planning (1,969 projects): Relevant for master planning firms, DPR consultants and equipment OEMs who want to influence specifications before they are written.
- Nearly Completion (287 projects): Active buyers of commissioning, testing, quality assurance, instrumentation calibration and facility management services.
Sub-sector focus matters equally. Real estate (3,368 projects) and roadways (809) dominate by count, but chemicals, power and railways carry far higher per-project values. The GAIL ammonia project at Rs 10,000 crore and the Adani hydroelectric project at Rs 7,048 crore — both currently Under Approvals — illustrate why tracking early-stage industrial projects is worth the effort. For construction-sector leads more broadly, the Maharashtra construction projects database is a useful starting point.
