IATA criticises AAI's demand for higher tariff at Delhi airport

Mumbai: The International Air Transport Association has criticised the Airports Authority of India for backing high user charges at the Delhi airport. The AAI holds a 26 per cent stake in Delhi International Airport Ltd and receives 46 per cent of the airport’s revenue.

The Airport Economic Regulatory Authority has proposed a 78 per cent reduction in landing, parking and other user charges in a consultation paper to determine tariffs for 2014-19. The consultation process is under way.


The Delhi airport levies Rs 275-550 as user development fee on passengers departing and Rs 233-466 on passengers arriving on domestic flights. Passengers on international flights are charged more.

In a recent submission to the aviation ministry the AAI said lower tariffs would reduce its revenue and affect development projects.
