Mumbai: The Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO), a public sector enterprise of the Government of India, is rapidly emerging as the Mahayuti government’s primary financier for highstakes infrastructure development.

Reflecting this growing reliance, HUDCO has sanctioned proposals worth over ₹30,000 crore for state-led initiatives in recent years. Recently, the Maharashtra Urban Infrastructure Fund (MUIF) approached the central agency for a ₹2,000 crore loan to facilitate urban projects in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Nagpur, and Mira-Bhayandar.

Highly placed sources indicated that the credit lines are predominantly directed toward land acquisition. During a state cabinet session this week, the government formalised plans to tap the central lender for land acquisition across three major expressway projects in the Vidarbha region.

These corridors are designed to link Nagpur with Gondia and Chandrapur, while connecting Bhandara with Gadchiroli. Financial requirements for these include ₹3,162 crore for the Nagpur-Gondia stretch, ₹931 crore for the Bhandara-Gondia project, and ₹2,353 crore for the Nagpur-Chandrapur route.

Furthermore, the cabinet has green-lit a proposal to secure a ₹6,000 crore loan from HUDCO for land acquisition related to the Purandar Airport project in Pune district.
