The Pune airport expansion project includes the construction of a new terminal at ₹400 crore, multi-level car park for ₹120 crore and a new cargo complex at a cost of around ₹300 crore. Construction of a new terminal is underway in the 40,000 square meter area on the east side of the existing terminal.
