Though the pace of business aviation in India has grown steadily over the last decade, the country’s airport infrastructure to handle those flights is still in the rudimentary stage, according to industry sources in the country.

Rockwell Collins Flight Information Systems (formerly Air Routing) told AIN that as of August, it had handled more flights to Delhi and Mumbai (approximately 110) than it did during all of 2008, before the global economic downturn. The number of business aircraft operating in India now exceeds 500, more than double the tally 10 years ago, and India’s Business Aircraft Operators Association (BAOA) expects that number at least to double again over the next 10 years.
