GMR Airports Limited, one of the world’s largest private airport operators, has experienced a period of steady traffic recovery, financial improvement, and strategic expansion across its airport portfolio over the past 12 months. The group operates major hubs in India and overseas, including Delhi, Hyderabad, Goa (Mopa), and Medan, while also managing key international assets. Continued growth in passenger demand, combined with new commercial initiatives and infrastructure investment, has strengthened the company’s operational profile.

Passenger traffic across GMR-operated airports continued to expand during 2025 as air travel demand in India and Southeast Asia remained strong. The company reported that its airports handled 27.8 million passengers in Q2 FY2026, with Delhi Airport accounting for 17.6 million passengers and Hyderabad Airport handling about 7.3 million travellers during the period. The portfolio has continued to benefit from the robust recovery of both domestic and international traffic following the pandemic.
