Delhi handled 65.79 lakh passengers in June 2026, up 6.8% year-on-year, while Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai reported lower traffic. Hyderabad and Chennai fell 12.9% and 12.7%, respectively, pointing to uneven demand conditions for airport retailers and travel operators.
Delhi was the only one of India’s five busiest airports to grow passenger traffic in June 2026. Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai declined, with Hyderabad and Chennai down sharply, signalling uneven footfall conditions for airport retail and travel operators.
