Adani-operated public-private partnership (PPP) airports in India recorded a 19% year-on-year increase in air cargo volumes in 2025, reflecting strong trade growth and rising demand for expedited freight services. The growth spans multiple airports under the Adani Group’s management, including Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, and Mangaluru.
According to the Adani Airports data, domestic cargo contributed significantly to the increase, supported by the e-commerce boom and enhanced logistics capabilities. International cargo volumes also saw a healthy uptick, driven by pharma, perishables, and high-value exports.
The group attributes the rise to modernized cargo handling infrastructure, digital initiatives, and streamlined customs procedures at its airports. Adani Airports continues to invest in automation, AI-driven cargo tracking systems, and expanded storage facilities to handle higher freight volumes efficiently.
“With growing trade volumes and e-commerce demand, our focus on operational excellence and modern cargo facilities has helped achieve this robust growth,” said a spokesperson from Adani Airports.
Industry analysts say that the 19% cargo growth positions Adani Airports as a leading player in India’s air freight sector and underscores the importance of PPP models in expanding logistics capacity nationwide.
