The total cost of the project is estimated at Rs146 crore. Central govt has approved Rs100 crore of this, with the balance to be sourced from state govt's tourism department and the NMC. Till date, the Centre has disbursed Rs65 crore to the civic body, with the remaining Rs35 crore are to be released based on the project's progress.
