Air India breaks ground for Delhi MRO facility

Air India has commenced construction of a new Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) facility at its Delhi Indira Gandhi airport hub. This expansive project covers nine acres, equivalent to 392,040 square feet, representing Air India’s commitment to bolstering its in-house maintenance operations. The state-of-the-art facility is designed to handle aircraft simultaneously, accommodating both widebody and narrowbody airplanes. Construction began on October 26, 2026, marking a significant investment for the airline. Ultimately, this MRO center will enhance operational efficiency and reduce reliance on external maintenance providers within Air India's fleet.
