All About The World Class Hyderabad Airport

The Hyderabad Airport or the GHIAL (GMR- Hyderabad International Airport Limited) is a joint venture company promoted by GMR group (63%) in collaboration with Malaysia Airports Holding Berhad (MAHB) (11%), Government of Andhra Pradesh (13%) ( not sure of the division between Telangana and Andhra Pradesh now )  and the Airports Authority of India (13%) as the other consortium partners. In 2003, GHIAL won the bid to develop and operate the green field international airport at Shamshabad in Hyderabad through an international competitive bidding process conducted by the Government of Andhra Pradesh and the Government of India.  GHIAL have ever since undertaken the responsibility to build, finance, operate and maintain the new airport under a public-private partnership (PPP) initiative.
