User charges at Hyderabad airport cut by 30%; sets new tariff regime
AERA has introduced an incremental ARR approach for the tariff period. It is intended to prevent passengers from being charged upfront for large projects that are yet to become operational
The Airports Economic Regulatory Authority of India (AERA) has announced a 30% reduction in the user development fee (UDF) for domestic passengers departing from Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, bringing it down from ₹750 to ₹515. This new tariff regime will be in effect from September 1, 2026, until March 31, 2031.
For international passengers, the UDF has been reduced from ₹1,500 to ₹1,030 per passenger, which is lower than the airport operator's proposed ₹1,150. Additionally, landing charges have been decreased to ₹435 per metric tonne for domestic flights and ₹630 per metric tonne for international flights during the tariff period.
