HC stays proceedings in AERAAT over airport charges

New Delhi: The Delhi High Court today stayed proceedings in the Airports Economic Regulatory Authority Appellate Tribunal (AERAAT) in relation to a plea challenging Bangalore International Aiport Ltd's (BIAL) decision to start collecting aeronautical services charges from airlines.
Common User Terminal Equipment (CUTE), Common User Self Service (CUSS) and Baggage Reconciliation System (BRS) charges, categorised as aeronautical services, were to be recovered from airlines from July 1, 2014 as per a June 10 tariff order of Airports Economic Regulatory Authority (AERA).

A two-member bench of the Tribunal had on July 1 directed that the status quo be maintained with respect to the recovery of these charges on an urgent plea by the Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA).
The high court today stayed the proceedings in the Tribunal on a plea by BIAL which has contended these charges are being collected by other airports in the country, so there is nothing new about the same.
