General description Indira-Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) covers an area of over 2,000 ha and is located at only about 15 km from the city centre of New Delhi. It serves the capital city of India and surrounding areas, with over 26 million inhabitants, and is currently the only international airport. Initially directly managed by the Airports Authority of India (AAI), the operation, maintenance and development of the airport were subsequently granted to the private company Delhi International Airport Ltd (DIAL) in May 2006 under a concession scheme for a period of 30 years, with a possible extension for an additional 30 years. DIAL is currently 64% owned by GMR Airports Ltd (GAL), which consolidates it in its financial statements, by AAI with 26% and by Fraport with 10%. IGIA is the leading airport in India for passenger traffic. It was ranked 17 th worldwide in 2019 before the global Covid-19 pandemic crisis, with 68.5 million passengers. The airport has been carbon neutral since 2016. It was the first in the Asia-Pacific region to be accredited ACA 4+ (Transition) in 2020. This achievement recognises the commitment of the airport to align its policy with the targets of the Paris Climate Agreement to contain global warming by an average of 1.5 degrees. DIAL Airport and its teams are fully committed to the highest level of quality of service for passengers and customers. Delhi Airport was awarded the ACI-ASQ ranking as best airport for the category over 40 million passengers in the Asia-Pacific region in 2020, a reward for excellence it received for the fourth year in a row. The airport obtained a rating of four stars from Skytrax, and was ranked by Skytrax as “Best Airport in India & South Asia” as well as “Cleanest Airport in India & South Asia” in 2022.

Traffic Delhi Airport is the hub for Air India and Vistara as well as the main base of the two major low-cost airlines IndiGo and SpiceJet, which account for more than half of its traffic. Before the Covid-19 crisis, about 66 airlines serve daily over 150 destinations worldwide from Delhi. Traffic has experienced a strong growth during the last decade, with an average growth rate of over 9% between 2010 (28.5million passengers) and 2019 (68.5 million).
