New Delhi: Airport charges and user development fee at Delhi and Mumbai, which were to be revised last month, would continue to remain the same till October end, official sources said today.
Airport charges, paid by airlines to airport operators like GMR-led Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) and GVK-led Mumbai International Airport Limited (MIAL), include those relating to landing and parking, fuel throughput, common user terminals and housing and parking.
The aeronautical tariff, approved by the Airports Economic Regulatory Authority (AERA), for these two major metro airports would continue till October 31 or till the final determination of the tariffs for five years from 2014 till 2019, whichever is earlier, the sources said.
The decision was taken after both DIAL and MIAL told AERA that since the determination of tariff for the 2014-19 period may take some time, it could allow continuation of existing rates till tariff was finalised and made effective.
At Delhi's IGI Airport, which is the only one to charge user development fee (UDF) from both outgoing and incoming flyers, the rate would remain Rs 1,131 for international departing passengers and Rs 933 for those arriving here.
For domestic passengers coming in and flying out of Delhi, the UDF would remain at Rs 490 for departing and Rs 415 for arriving passengers.
The UDF rates for Mumbai would remain fixed at Rs 548 and Rs 274 for outbound international and domestic passengers.
Incoming passengers do not pay UDF at Mumbai.
Similarly, landing charges in Delhi would remain constant at over Rs 59,000 for a large aircraft coming from abroad and over Rs 30,000 for a similar plane from a domestic destination.
These charges at Mumbai airport were Rs 60,000 and about Rs 29,000 for large airplanes operating on international and domestic routes respectively.
