Adani to invest Rs 13 billion in Thiruvananthapuram Airport

Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL) has announced plans to invest Rs 13 billion to expand Thiruvananthapuram International Airport (TRV) by 2027. The details were shared during the recent TRV Growth Conclave, attended by local representatives, government officials, and travel and tourism industry members.

The expansion project, dubbed ‘Project Anantha’, aims to significantly upgrade the airport's infrastructure. A new terminal will be constructed, inspired by the architecture of Kerala’s iconic temples, featuring cascading steps and terraced levels.

Currently, the airport spans 45,000 square meters and serves 3.2 million passengers annually. After the expansion, the terminal area will grow to 165,000 square meters, with a capacity to handle nearly 12 million passengers per year. Construction is set to begin this financial year and is expected to conclude by 2027.

The new terminal will also feature a plaza, a hotel, additional administrative spaces, and enhanced parking facilities. Other upgrades include a new Air Traffic Control (ATC) tower, an international cargo complex, and remote check-in services, offering a modernised travel experience.

AAHL assumed control of the airport's operations, management, and development in October 2021. Thiruvananthapuram International Airport, established in 1932 and formerly managed by the Airports Authority of India, is the first of four airports in Kerala.
