Shares of Housing Development and Infrastucture (HDIL) slipped 0.73% to Rs 88.45. GVK Power and Infrastructure said the company's subsidiary Mumbai International Airport (MIAL) has settled the dispute with realty firm HDIL related to the slum rehabilitation activities near the Mumbai International Airport. MIAL and HDIL have signed a settlement agreement dated 8 September 2016 vide which they have irrevocably and unconditionally withdrawn all their respective claims and counter- claims against each other, GVK Power and Infrastructure said.

It may be recalled that MIAL had entered into an agreement with HDIL on 15 October 2007 for implementation of a slum rehabilitation project at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (CSIA). However, due to disputes between MIAL and HDIL, the agreement was terminated by MIAL on 6 February 2013. HDIL challenged the termination of the agreement, invoked the arbitration clause and moved a petition before the Bombay High Court. Considering that considerable time has lapsed from the time the proceedings commenced, MIAL and HDIL have held discussions on various issues to put an end to the ongoing arbitration and have arrived at an amicable settlement.
