ready to handle 12 million passengers annually with multimodal connectivity
Noida, Uttar Pradesh | March 28, 2026 — Tata Projects Limited has successfully delivered Phase 1 of Noida International Airport, ahead of its commercial launch.
Developed by Yamuna International Airport Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Zurich Airport International AG, the airport is strategically located in western Uttar Pradesh and is expected to significantly strengthen aviation capacity in the National Capital Region while accelerating economic growth, logistics development, tourism, and urban expansion across the region.
Phase 1 includes Terminal 1, spanning over 1 lakh sq. m., designed to handle 12 million passengers annually, supported by advanced digital systems for efficient passenger processing. The airport also features a 3,900-metre runway capable of handling wide-body aircraft, a modern cargo terminal, an Air Traffic Control tower, and extensive airside and landside infrastructure. Drawing inspiration from the cultural heritage of Uttar Pradesh, the terminal architecture features a distinctive wavy roofline inspired by the Yamuna River, a forecourt reflecting traditional havelis, and interiors enriched with regional art, textiles, and handicrafts.
Mr. Vinayak Pai, Managing Director and CEO, Tata Projects Limited, said: “The completion of the first phase of Noida International Airport is a defining milestone in India’s infrastructure journey and reflects the capability required to deliver projects of national significance with precision, scale, and sustainability. This project also stands out for the way multiple Tata Group companies came together, contributing expertise across engineering, technology, systems, and project execution to deliver an integrated infrastructure asset of global standards. It is a powerful demonstration of Group strength in nationbuilding through collaborative execution.
He also added “this development underscores our strong commitment to sustainable infrastructure, achieved through over 85 million safe man-hours delivered by a workforce of more than 100,000 people. We are proud to have partnered with Yamuna International Airport Private Limited and Zurich Airport International to deliver a future-ready aviation hub that will enhance regional connectivity, support economic growth, and contribute meaningfully to India’s long-term infrastructure vision.”
The airport offers seamless connectivity through the Yamuna Expressway and will be integrated with future multimodal transport networks, including metro connectivity. Designed for long-term expansion, the airport will eventually serve 70 million passengers annually, supported by two runways, expanded terminal capacity, and dedicated aircraft maintenance facilities.
the facility integrates renewable energy through solar and wind power, rainwater harvesting systems, and sustainable construction materials, embedding environmental responsibility across every aspect of development.
Tata Projects’ EPC scope included construction of the terminal building, runway, airside and landside infrastructure, roads, utilities, cargo terminal, ATC tower, and ancillary facilities.
With regulatory approvals secured, Noida International Airport is now ready for commercial operations, reinforcing Tata Projects’ position as a leading EPC company delivering complex, large-scale infrastructure that supports India’s growth ambitions.
