Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA), the busiest in the country, is now also among the top 15 busiest airports in the world.

Private airport operator Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) on Sunday said it was the 12th busiest airport worldwide in November 2016 as per the latest report published by International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).

“An Indian airport has entered the big league of top-15 airports in the world for the first time. The Delhi airport also recorded the highest growth rate of 19.1% in November 2016 globally,” said a DIAL spokesperson.

He added: “This is another major achievement after the Delhi airport crossed the 50-million passenger mark during the same period in November.”

“Last year, the airport handled a record 55.64 million passengers, which is the highest ever in the country.”
