The airport operates with two runways located on each side of the central terminals (T2 and T3) and a third runway in the north side, almost parallel to the two other ones. A fourth runway is being finalised and should be open for operations in 2023. It is located to the south of the facilities and will form a doublet parallel to the existing runway. Delhi Airport will then operate a system of a quasi-doublet of runways on the north side and a doublet of runways on the south side, similar to the layout in CDG airport which has proven its high operational efficiency. At end of 2022, IGIA had a total of 73 passenger boarding bridges (PBB) in the T3 terminal and five PBB in T2, with a total for the three terminals of 78 contact aircraft parking stands and 114 remote parking stands (including 12 stands for cargo operations).

Due to the crisis linked to the Covid-19 pandemic, Delhi Airport’s traffic decreased to 28.5 million passengers in 2020. However, traffic showed good resilience to the crisis in 2021, before recovering strongly in 2022 to reach 59.4 million passengers, or 87% of the 2019 level. This recovery was strongly supported by the domestic segment, despite a new wave of Covid-19 that impacted the first quarter of 2022. At the end of 2022, domestic traffic had returned to its pre crisis level, and international traffic reached 90% of the 2019 level. International passenger traffic by destination and by airline The airport handled 13.7 million international passengers in 2022. Dubai, London, Doha, Bangkok, Singapore, Katmandu, Abu Dhabi, Toronto, Sharjah, and Frankfurt are the main international routes served. In addition to the Indian airlines Air India, Indigo, Vistara and Spice Jet, international airlines such as Emirates, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, Air Canada, United Airlines, and Lufthansa also represent a significant share of international traffic.

The airport hosts a cargo zone of more than 60 ha, one of the largest in the South Asia region. With two main dedicated terminals, the platform has experienced strong growth in its activity, exceeding 1 million tonnes of freight in 2019. It has specialised cargo facilities, notably for perishable goods and controlled temperature fret. The Transhipment Excellence Centre, located airside on 7,500 m 2 , ensures the fast multimodal transfer of goods with a processing time of less than 20 minutes on average. Regulation Delhi airport operates with a system of double hybrid tiles. Aeronautical revenues are regulated via orders by the Airports Economic Regulatory Authority (AERA) over five-year periods, after consultations with stakeholders. Non-aeronautical revenues are not regulated, however a contribution of 30% of these revenues to the regulated revenues is imposed. In 2020, DIAL (the concession holder for the Delhi Airport) was granted a temporary extension of the conditions of the second regulation period, while waiting for the determination of the regulated tariffs for the third period, which was supposed to run between April 2019 and March 2024. As of 30 December 2020, the final order for the third regulatory period was published by the Airports Economic Regulatory Authority of India.

Infrastructure Originally built on the site of an air force base, Palam Airport (the site of the current terminal 1), experienced a sharp increase in traffic from the 1970s, leading to the construction of the second terminal, which opened in May 1986 and the expansion of the airside facilities to the south of the airport. Subsequently, it was renamed Delhi International Airport. After the transfer of the operations to the private company DIAL, the third terminal was built by GMR Airports and inaugurated in 2010. This new terminal T3 is dedicated to the international traffic.
