'''Maharashtra Airport Development Company Limited''' abbreviated as ('''MADC'''), is a Special Purpose Company constituted in 2002 by the [[Government of Maharashtra]] (GoM) to plan, construct, operate and maintain airports in the State. The government has entrusted MADC the task of developing three `[[Greenfield project|greenfield]]' and six `brownfield' airports, and a heliport at Gadchiroli.<ref name="CAG1">{{cite news|title=MADC could not develop any airport in Maha in 14 years: CAG |url=https://www.outlookindia.com/newsscroll/madc-could-not-develop-any-airport-in-maha-in-14-years-cag/1024013 |accessdate=17 May 2020|newspaper=[[Outlook (Indian magazine)|Outlook]]|date=7 April 2017}}</ref><br />
MADC was also to play a lead role in the planning and implementation of the [[Multi-modal International Cargo Hub and Airport at Nagpur]] (MIHAN) project,<ref>[http://www.madcindia.org/abtmadc.html About MADC] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120215072719/http://www.madcindia.org/abtmadc.html |date=15 February 2012 }}</ref><br />
<br />
In April 2017, a report by the [[Comptroller and Auditor General of India]] (CAG) criticised the MADC for not developing a single airport in the state due to absence of a long-term plan, despite 14 years of its existence. The report also stated that Grants given by the state government for development of airports were lying unused, thus "blocking up" the public money.<ref name="CAG1"/><br />
<br />
Keeping in mind all the key objectives, MADC was formed with equity participation from [[City and Industrial Development Corporation]] Ltd. (CIDCO), [[Nagpur Improvement Trust]] (NIT), [[Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation]] (MIDC), [[Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation]] Ltd. (MSRDC) and the [[Nagpur Municipal Corporation]] (NMC). The master plan of MIHAN consists of a [[Special Economic Zone]]<ref>[http://www.sezindia.nic.in/writereaddata/pdf/SEZ%20Act,%202005.pdf SEZ-THE GAZETTE OF INDIA]</ref> comprising an Information Technology City, a Health City, a Captive Power Plant and other Manufacturing and Value Added units.<br />
<br />
