GMR Airports Limited announced on Tuesday (June 17) that it managed to accommodate over one crore passengers across its airport network in May 2025, reflecting a slight year-on-year (YoY) increase of 0.8%.
This growth was primarily fueled by a 2.9% boost in international passenger numbers, whereas domestic traffic saw only a marginal rise of 0.1% due to operational challenges. The total aircraft movements (ATMs) for the month reached 64,931, marking a 6.3% YoY growth.
In spite of temporary challenges, including restricted flight operations at Delhi airport from May 6-20 due to enhanced security protocols and modified airspace conditions associated with a significant geopolitical event, Delhi airport reported its highest year-to-date (YTD) passenger and ATM figures in FY26. Passenger traffic at Delhi hit 12.9 million, representing a YoY rise of 0.8%, while ATMs increased by 3.5% YoY to 0.77 lakh.
