Adani To Invest Rs 100 Billion in Lucknow Airport

02 Sep 2025 CW Team

The company has already invested Rs 24.01 billion towards constructing a new terminal and upgrading the surrounding road network. Presently, CCSIA handles around 8 million passengers annually. Upon completion of Terminal 3 Phase 2 in 2026–27, with an additional Rs 9 billion investment, capacity is expected to increase to 14 million passengers per annum.

A key feature of the expansion is the introduction of “swing operations”, allowing shared use of terminals for both domestic and international flights based on demand peaks. This model is expected to enhance operational flexibility, improve efficiency, and integrate technology with cultural and artistic elements.

At present, the airport operates seven aerobridges and accommodates Type D aircraft, with parking available for 15 planes simultaneously. Connectivity has seen continuous growth, with 42 direct routes — 31 domestic and 11 international — now operational. International travellers account for nearly 19 per cent of the total passenger traffic.

Lucknow’s airport also plays a vital role in the regional economy, with the city contributing nearly 4 per cent to Uttar Pradesh’s gross domestic product. Recognising the cargo sector's strategic importance, Adani Airports has outlined plans to develop a cargo capacity of 50,000 metric tonnes over the next five years.

Future international expansions include direct flight services to Vietnam and Singapore. The ongoing project aligns with Adani Airports’ broader strategy to establish Lucknow as a pivotal aviation and logistics hub in Uttar Pradesh, supporting both passenger movement and freight trade.
