The venture had got the green signal for a built-up area (that is, area including vertical development) of 1.47 lakh square metres or 16 lakh square foot, which is the largest so far for Navi Mumbai.
The project would come up at the villages of Gothivli and Talavli that fall after Rabale, and cover around two-dozen sectors there.
According to realtors and locals, this is the biggest real estate development taking place in Navi Mumbai. Arvind Goel, MCHI-Navi Mumbai president, said, "Whatever has been developed in Navi Mumbai in the last few years is equivalent to what Reliance is developing currently at this project. We welcome this as development means movement in the market. With hotels there would be employment, and more residents mean more business."
A realtor said the land rate in the area is around Rs 5,000-6,000 per square foot, and the project would propel the real estate business forward, boosting sales.
The reporter's efforts to get in touch with Reliance Corporate IT Park Ltd received no response. MiD DAY has a copy of the clearance, signed by the new principal secretary of the department R A Rajeev on July 30.
