Trailing close behind Borivali is Panvel located in Navi Mumbai with the growth percentage of 296 percent. One of the major factors that have led to an increase in the property prices in Panvel is that it has one of the fastest growing areas in terms of infrastructure development and connectivity. One of the leading factors that have led to the growth of the estate activities in Panvel and increase in land values in the region would be the Navi Mumbai International Airport coming up next to Panvel.
