Of the total target, AAI’s contribution is approximately Rs 250 billion, with the remaining investment coming from airport developers under the PPP model.

As part of the PM Gati Shakti initiative, the government aims to establish a seamless multimodal connectivity network, integrating aviation with railways, roads, and waterways. Additionally, in the aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) sector, the government is encouraging original equipment manufacturers to set up facilities in India and has introduced policies to align the industry with global standards.
