BMC invites developers for redevpt of 64 slums
Mumbai: BMC has invited Expressions of Interest (EOI) from developers for the redevelopment of 64 slum rehabilitation schemes located on municipal lands across Mumbai, under Regulation 33(10) of DCPR-2034.
According to the public notice, the redevelopment will be carried out in line with the Development Control and Promotion Regulations (DCPR-2034) norms and applicable govt policies.
Some of these slums are located in areas like Shimpoli in Borivli, Goregaon East, Malad East, Lower Parel, Dindoshi, Wadala, Govandi, and Ghatkopar. Developers will be responsible for the entire process—ranging from conducting slum surveys and preparing redevelopment plans to securing permissions, constructing both rehabilitation and sale components, and handling post-occupancy maintenance.
Only developers with prior experience in slum or housing rehabilitation who meet the required technical and financial criteria will be considered.
The EOI was published in newspapers on May 10. "The detailed EOI document, including eligibility conditions, scope of work, and submission guidelines, has also been made available on the BMC's official website from May 14, 2025. A pre-bid meeting with interested developers has been scheduled for May 23.

The last date for submitting bids is June 10, following which the eligibility (Packet A) and technical (Packet B) bids will be opened the same day," said a civic official.
Technical scrutiny will be completed by June 17, and financial proposals (Packet C) will be opened tentatively at 4:00 PM on the same day. BMC has stated that the notice is intended to generate public awareness, encourage participation from qualified developers, and promote an inclusive redevelopment vision for the city.
However, the move has drawn criticism. Opposition parties allege that the BMC lacks the experience to handle Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) projects. "BMC has been given the powers of the Chief Executive Officer of the Slum Rehabilitation Authority for these 64 projects. It has also been granted the powers of the Planning Authority for the area of these SR schemes. However, BMC lacks experience in executing SRA project," said MLA Rais Shaikh.

ECB set for 7th rate cut again as Donald Trump trade war rumbles on
The European Central Bank is likely to announce its seventh consecutive interest rate cut this week as the eurozone economy struggles under slowing inflation and uncertainty fueled by US President Donald Trump 's shifting trade policies. Prior to Trump's fluctuating tariff impositions globally, the ECB had been reducing borrowing costs in response to declining inflation rates. Concerns about economic performance in the 20 euro-using nations have become more prominent than inflation worries, as elevated rates have affected both commercial entities and consumers. The impact of Trump's tariffs has created additional pressure. Europe faces scrutiny due to its substantial trade surplus with the United States, raising concerns about potential negative effects on European exporters. HSBC anticipates a rate reduction at Thursday's ECB governing council meeting, citing the eurozone's deteriorated short-term outlook following recent US tariff announcements. Financial experts anticipate another quarter-point decrease, which would adjust the Frankfurt-based institution's primary deposit rate to two percent. However, specialists suggest this June reduction might conclude the current sequence, with the ECB likely taking a pause in July to evaluate recent economic trends. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The ECB's reduction strategy contrasts with the US Federal Reserve's approach, which has maintained steady rates amid concerns about Trump's tariffs potentially increasing inflation. The EU currently faces multiple tariff levels from Trump's administration, including a 10-percent baseline rate and 25-percent duties on vehicles, steel and aluminium. Trump has temporarily suspended higher tariffs on the EU and other trading partners during negotiations, temporarily reducing market tensions. However, indicating ongoing trade tensions, he recently threatened a 50-percent tariff on the EU, before postponing the decision to July 9. ECB President Christine Lagarde expressed concern in Berlin, stating that the US-led global economic structure was "fracturing". The ECB faces challenges in safeguarding the eurozone from Trump's unpredictable trade policies while maintaining stable inflation. Eurozone inflation reached 2.2 percent in April, marginally exceeding the ECB's two-percent target. Eurostat will release May's inflation figures on Tuesday before the ECB meeting. Recent indicators suggest faster-than-anticipated reduction in price pressures, and the ECB is likely to revise its inflation forecasts downward on Thursday. Analysts generally believe Trump's tariffs will further decrease eurozone inflation, particularly as China might redirect low-cost products to Europe to avoid US duties. The ECB is expected to reduce growth projections on Thursday due to trade war effects, following the EU's recent forecast reductions. While markets await Lagarde's guidance about future ECB actions, analysts suggest current uncertainties will limit detailed revelations.
