Under its innovation wing, GMR Innovex, GAL is rolling out cutting-edge digital solutions to enhance passenger experiences. The GMR Aero Academy and GMR School of Aviation are instrumental in nurturing skilled aviation professionals to power India’s rapidly growing sector.
In FY25, GAL served over 120 million passengers, affirming its position as Asia’s largest private airport operator and the world’s second-largest. It runs key airports in Delhi, Hyderabad, Goa, and Medan (Indonesia), while also supporting Mactan-Cebu International Airport in the Philippines. The company is also developing new greenfield airports in Bhogapuram (Visakhapatnam), India, and Crete, Greece.
The parent entity, GMR Group, is active in energy, transport, urban infrastructure, and sports. Through the GMR Varalakshmi Foundation, the group continues to uplift communities with initiatives in education, skills training, and healthcare.
