  • The airport was recognized at the Water Innovation Summit 2025 for achieving Scope I water neutrality under the NITI Aayog-CII framework.
  • GMR Aero-led Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) said that Indira Gandhi International Airport has transformed from a groundwater-deficient location to one that harvests more water than it uses.
