India outlines aviation growth path ahead of IPTS 2025

Ahead of the Inter Passenger Terminal Show (IPTS) 2025, a high-impact roundtable in Mumbai saw key stakeholders from government and industry align on future-ready airport infrastructure. With India targeting 350 airports by 2047, leaders called for digital-first, modular designs and sustainable airport ecosystems. 
Speakers from the Ministry of Civil Aviation, Indian Revenue Service, JLL India, Navi Mumbai Airport, dormakaba and Media Fusion discussed themes such as expanding regional air connectivity, bridging infrastructure gaps, and leveraging AI-driven tools like Digi Yatra and digital twins. 

Geetha Priya G of JLL said, “We need infrastructure that is resilient, modular and digitally integrated.” MoCA’s Sumeet Suseelan highlighted the talent gap: “India can become a global training hub by widening cabin crew and ground staff education beyond airlines.” 

With $12 billion already invested in airport infrastructure and a $4 billion MRO market in sight, India is repositioning itself as a global aviation hub. IPTS 2025 will convene over 3,000 stakeholders in Mumbai from June 11–12.
