Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) has become the first airport in India with a capacity exceeding 40 million passengers annually to achieve water-positive status.
Videh Kumar Jaipuriar, CEO of Delhi International Airport Limited, described the milestone as a reflection of the airport’s commitment to responsible resource management, environmental sustainability, and the future of aviation infrastructure.
He emphasized that this accomplishment represents an important step toward IGIA’s broader goal of becoming a net-zero airport. According to Jaipuriar, achieving water positivity not only lowers reliance on natural water resources but also strengthens the airport’s resilience and readiness to face climate challenges.
