German firm Fraport India on Monday said it is in advanced discussions with some entities to jointly bid for the proposed Navi Mumbai airport.

"We are in advanced stages of discussions with major players (corporates) for jointly bidding for the proposed Navi Mumbai airport," Ansgar Sickert, managing director, Fraport India said on the sidelines of an aviation summit in Mumbai.

The company is interested in airport management as well, he said, adding that "if there is no airport management, then we will not bid for it".

Fraport is a German company that operates Frankfurt International Airport and is also involved in ground-handling jobs at the airports it runs and also those operated by third partes such as Vienna.
