Eight groups have submitted preliminary bids for the construction of an international airport in Hyderabad, capital of the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.

"The bidding process ... has been a success with eight globally renowned and high-profile Indian business houses with foreign consortia submitting their pre-qualification bids on February 15", said Andhra Pradesh Minister for Roads, Buildings and Ports K. Vijayarama Rao.

The Hyderabad international airport project is estimated to cost 20 billion rupees (US$463.4 million). India currently has five international airports catering to foreign flights.

The minister said his government would complete evaluation of the pre-qualification bids within a month.
