SUCCESS STORY
GMR Group entered the airports space in early 2000s and is today counted
amongst the top 5 airport developer and operators globally. GMR Group presently
owns and operates Delhi International Airport and Hyderabad International
Airports. Further, GMR Group has recently won the concession to develop and
operate Goa’s Greenfield airport at Mopa reinforcing our standing as India’s
largest private airport company.
Apart from being the largest private airport company in India, GMR Group is also
the only Indian airport developer to have developed and operated airports outside
India. GMR Infrastructure in partnership with Megawide Construction Corporation
of Philippines is operating and developing Mactan Cebu International Airport – the
second largest airport of Philippines. Our company’s founder and the ladder behind
the success of this company is G M Rao . G M Rao, a Mechanical Engineer, is the
Founder Chairman of the GMR Group, the global infrastructure developer.
Born in Rajam in the Srikakulam district of Andhra Pradesh in India, G M Rao
ventured into business starting with a single jute mill in 1978. Since then, till
before India’s economic liberalization, circumstances compelled him for
opportunity driven business building.
He entered 28 businesses as a serial entrepreneur and exited most of them with the
opportunities thrown up by the opening up of the Indian economy in the early
1990s. As a part of the post-liberalization generation of entrepreneurs, his moves
became entirely strategy driven and focused on long term objectives. Eventually,
his single-minded focus on the core infrastructure sector resulted in GMR Group
exiting some of the highly attractive businesses of banking, insurance, software,
breweries, jute .
In April 2009 GMR bought English Premier League’s liver pool FC for a
whopping 500 million pounds . We are proud to say that 40 percent of our revenue
from the airport sector comes from non aeronautical revenues .

DEVELOPMENT MODEL ( PPP ) :

Public-private partnerships involve collaboration between a government agency

and a private-sector company that can be used to finance, build, and operate
projects, such as public transportation networks, parks, and convention centers.
Financing a project through a public-private partnership can allow a project to be
completed sooner or make it a possibility in the first place .

In this type of partnership, investments are undertaken by the private sector

entity, for a specified period of time. These partnerships work well when private
sector technology and innovation combine with public sector incentives to
complete work on time and within budget. As PPP involves full retention of
responsibility by the government for providing the services, it doesn’t amount to
privatization.There is a well defined allocation of risk between the private sector
and the public entity . Private entity is chosen on the basis of open competitive
bidding and receives performance linked payments.

GOA

BOOT with ODMA arrangements : : A private-public partnership (P3) project

model where private organizations conduct large development projects under
contract to public sector partners such as governmental agencies.
A BOOT (build, own, operate, transfer) project is seen as a means of developing
large public infrastructures with private funding. The public sector partner enters
into a contract with private developers, usually a consortium of businesses with
experience and expertise in a particular industry or a corporation that specializes
in designing and implementing large projects.

Here there will be a joint venture consortium with the company GMR Group
(68%) and the government of India (32%) .

WHY SHALL THE GOVERNMENT CHOOSE THIS MODEL :

• Almost all the airports made under PPP in India are working under this
model and this includes the Delhi International Airport and the Hyderabad
 international airport which were made by the GMR group . The Delhi
airport is also the most profitable airport for the airport authority of india .
Thus BOOT is a feasible option to build a new airport in GOA
• It is also a safer bargain for the government as there wont be much of a
public debt to handle . This will therefore help the government in financing
different projects .

Advantages of BOOT –

• It allows each party to focus on their strengths -

In the BOOT model, the private and public sectors are able to both focus on
what they do best. That allows projects to be completed faster, often with
reduce delays, because the public sector provides structure and cost
containment, while the private sector provides efficiencies and resource
access.
• It keeps public-sector funds where they are most needed Because the
private sector is managing the funding aspect of the project, the public
sector is able to direct resources to other areas of socioeconomic welfare
required by the community. This allows the processes of governing to
continue unimpeded while the infrastructure requirements can be met at
the same time
• It allows for innovation
The public sector brings in the best private contractors possible when
developing infrastructure using the BOOT model. This process encourages
innovation, which allows the community to benefit from advanced
technologies which would be included with the project. If the project was
implemented by the public sector only, this inclusion factor would not
always be possible because of the costs involved
• It minimizes the public cost for infrastructure development.
Using the BOOT model, the public sector is able to take advantage of the
efficiencies found in the private sector for a minimal investment. Many PPP
 relationship using this model will offer an incentive, such as tax breaks, to
the private organization to develop the infrastructure. Because the private
sector assumes the risk for planning and use, they are given an opportunity
to profit from the structure by recruiting tenants for it. Then, after the
contracted time, the public sector takes over ownership.

Scope:

• Runway (4000m x 45m) to cater for Code 4E aircraft and Runway ( 8000m *
50m ) for code 8F aircrafts .
• Parallel full length taxiway (4000m x 25m) designed for Code F aircraft with
three rapid exit taxiways and other connecting taxiways
• Apron with 80 aircraft stands (351,300 sq. m) and Isolation Bay (14,710 sq.
m).
• 4 km long main access road with two rotary intersections and a grade
separator.
• Other secondary access roads and major and minor service roads for
connecting the apron and service areas totaling about 30 km.
• Landside parking facility for 2000 cars excluding the taxi stands .
• Detailed marking plans for runway, taxiway & apron. Detailed road markings
and signage.
• Airport vicinity of around 5 km radius to keep the nationals from the noise
pollution

2,00,000 square meters around airport for infrastructural development

UTTAR PRADESH
BOT WITH ODMA –

The Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model is widely gaining popularity in the

offshore business services as it allows the client to incubate a project in an
offshore destination under a regional service provider, until it reaches satisfactory
maturity for full transfer of ownership. The BOT model is not Outsourcing and it
has a completely different framework . The BOT model is a business arrangement
in which an organization builds a project, operates it and eventually transfers the
ownership to the client after a specific period of contract. This ensures that the
organisation recovers its initial investment in a reasonable span of time.
The term was initially coined for building generic infrastructures such as roads
and shipyards. The organisation building the same is allowed to operate (and
maintain) it and generate revenue to recoup the money invested in the project.
The project is handed over to the public entity after a specific period.

WHY SHALL THE GOVERNMENT CHOOSE BOT :

• The number one benefit of a BOT model is its massive cost benefits.
Typically, an off-shored BOT project saves as much as 60% of the normal
cost as the project itself is owned, operated and managed by an off-shore
 team . This will help us save a lot of revenue and cost amid pandemic . it
will also help us in the cost cutting of the project . Thus the BOT model will
be feasible .
• The involvement of private sector and experienced commercial lenders
ensures in-depth review as an additional sign of project feasibility.
• Project risk and burden that would otherwise have to be borne by the
public sector is allocated to the private sector

ADVANTAGES OF BOT MODEL

• Use of private sector financing to provide newsources of capital, which

reduces public borrowing and direct spending and which may improve the
host government’s credit rating .
• Ability to accelerate the development of projects that would otherwise
have to wait for and compete for sovereign resources.
• Use of private sector capital, initiative and known how to reduce project
construction cost, shorten schedules and improving operating efficiency.
• The involvement of private sponsors and experienced commercial lenders,
which ensures an in-depth review and is an additional sign of project
feasibility.
• Technology transfer, the training f local personnel and the development of
national capital markets.
• In contrast to privatisation, government retention of strategic control over
the project, which is transferred to the public

SCOPE :

• A new runway ( 4500m * 50m ) to cater code 4H flights

• Parallel length taxiway full (4500m x 25m) designed for Code F aircraft with
three rapid exit taxiways and other connecting taxiways
• A new terminals to an apron with 25 new aircraft stand ( 1,20,000 sp.m ) with
isolation bay .
 • Landside parking facility for 2000 cars excluding the taxi stands .
• Detailed marking plans for runway, taxiway & apron. Detailed road
markings and signage.
• 2,00,000 square meters around airport for infrastructural development
• Upgrading the old terminals to state of the art facility
• radation of the existing terminals to make it feasible

MODEL FOR OPERATION , DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT FOR GOA AND UP :

Cost and fee contract –

The cost-plus-fee is also referred to by the abbreviation of CPF, and represents a

variant of a cost reimbursable contract in which the buyer provides
reimbursement to the selling party for the allowable costs that have been accrued
by the seller in the commission of the service, the creation, manufacture, delivery
of the product, or in any other performance of the contracted work. In addition to
this reimbursement, the seller also receives a fee that has been previously
determined and calculated as a percentage measure of the total costs. The fee in
these situations will tend to vary with the actual costs. Cost-plus-fee is
advantageous to the seller because it allows for some baseline costs and
expenditures to be reimbursed in a more guaranteed way, but also allows for
the opportunity to modify fees based on percentages.

STATE BENEFITS
GOA-
It is a very famous state in India . It lies along the Konkan region . It is a tiny
emerald land on the west coast of India . It was once a part of the Union Territory
of Goa. It is the smallest state in India. From shopping at the various markets to
eating from different cuisines. There is a water sports galore.

Tourism is the second largest sector and the second highest revenue
generating industry after mining . Yet the attraction of the high end tourism lacks
. ‘Goa is famous for its fauna and flora’ is an understatement. We believe its
beauty is too grandeur to be true and deserves the world’s attention. That being
said , airports should be upgraded and be five-star ones . We believe in the saying
‘first impression is the last impression’ and by upgrading its airports this can be
attained.

We plan on building an Airport in the city of Margao . Margao is a beautiful state

with its beaches and the flora at its best . This is a great tourist destination in the
state . It is located in the South Goa. Southern Goa does not have any airports
which is a drawback . Hence by doing so , the tourists will be able to visit the
Southern Goa easily
which will also be
affordable.

Goa Airports face

several problems like
inadequate counters
(domestic and
international) , poor
civil works , lack of
cafeterias and food
outlets. The airport has only about 21 aeroplanes (domestic and international
flights included) which is not enough if Goa wants to attract more tourism. The
area around the airport should be an airport city , which Goa lacks of . This is what
it'll take Goa to become one of the most popular states .

• We promise to help Goa the get the recognition it deserves by building up

an airport and upgrading terminals of the airports and turn it into a five star
airport . We shall also provide your state with 5G towers near the airports
built by us which will not only be added as a boon to your tourism sector
but also provide tourists to have a better experience. We shall develop
sustainable airports and reduce pollution .
• Needless to say , we shall also provide tourists with rapid test on arrival
which shall give accurate results within 30 seconds . We also promise that
as and when the Government of India permits the use of ‘fingerprick test’
we shall enable the usage of it at the earliest .
• As stated above , we shall provide the best vicinity around our airports . We
shall also set up 5G towers and provide the tourists with the 5G network .
This shall be done by partnership with Vodafone. This shall give you the
best and the fastest network. We shall also give the tourists free Wifi.
Needless to say , this shall attract a lot of attention.
• We will not only provide the state with the aforementioned things but also
make sure of the clean environment. For this , we shall use various ways of
sustainable development of airports and its vicinity.

WAYS OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT-

Airports have an impact on the environment. Be it the carbon footprint of the

flights or the noise pollution caused or the inferior air quality . We have come up
with a few strategies for Airport Sustainability.
• Many airport operators have started using BREEAM and other ways in
order to make the airports environmentally sustainable. We shall opt for
BREEAM in order to sustain our airport. Now what is BREEAM ? Well ,
BREEAM ( Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment
Method) is the world’s leading sustainability assessment for master
planning of building from construction to refurbishment. This will make the
airport the first Indian Airport to use BREEAM .
• We shall increase the use of socially and environmentally responsible
products. We shall minimize the energy usage as much as we can and
maximize the usage of green power at our airport .
• We shall adopt the national regulations which will provide environmentally
sustainable airports. We shall involve local communities in the developing
airports .
• Land utilization and wastage . Airport waste is the waste generated by the
airports , it may be caused by the passengers , managing activities etc. We
shall make sure that there is optimum utilization of the runways’ capacity .
• Now , coming on to the next problem, noise. Noise pollution disturbs
people . Flights produce a lot of noise during the take off and landing . So to
solve this problem , we shall reduce the number of people exposed to the
 excessive noise level, help the local community recieve the airport’s plans
and activities , we shall also apply the latest technologies and designs and
we shall also take into consideration the frequency of the flights and night
time flights .
• We shall use HEPA filters to filter the air in and around the airport facility to
ensure our passengers breathe a fresh air . The air is filtered every 2 to 3
minute.

UTTAR PRADESH -
It is a well known state in North India .. It is divided into around 18
divisions and about 75 districts. The forest cover is almost 6.09% of the state’s
geographical area. It is the 4th largest state by area in the country. The state was
once known for its sugar production , now it is dominated by the service sector .
The state has many historical, natural and religious destinations.
The state can be divided into two regions – the Central Plains and The Southern
uplands. The state is blessed with a very fertile land. The elevation of the region
rarely exceeds a thousand feet .

Though the state is blessed with a very fertile land , it is featureless . A very
famous city of this state is Varanasi. It is famous for its muslin and silk fabrics ,
sculptures and many more thing. We believe it is underrated and deserves a lot
more attention.

Though the Varanasi airport was awarded with the ‘main tag' it also faces a lot of
air congestion. And this drawback might affect the tourism sector of this
beautiful city. We do not want them to suffer because of this slight drawback.
We are here to the rescue.

• We plan on adding an extra terminal to the Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport

while upgrading the rest . This shall not only help in reducing the air traffic
but also attract tourists as we want to turn it into a five star airport. We
shall also build 5G network towers in the vicinity .
• We also aim on upgrading the airport vicinity which would give it an ‘airport
city’ look . We shall be building the 5G network towers in partnership with
Vodafone . This shall not only attract the tourists as it will give fast speed
network but also give them a closure.
• We strive to give our tourists the best experience. We shall also provide
them with free Wifi. We also make sure there is no side affect of this , since
many birds are harmed due the 5G radiations we shall decrease our
frequency by a millimeter as this will reduce the harm caused drastically .
• We also care about the environment hence we shall come up with various
strategies of sustainable development of airports.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Aeroplanes have an impact on the environment be it the carbon

footprints left behind or the noise caused. We have come up with a few
strategies to help reduce these and save our environment a little.
 • We shall try our best to reduce the energy consumption . We shall
also reduce the impact on air and water quality by decreasing the
pollution caused and by minimizing other impacts.
• We shall use the best technology available and improve
construction operations which will lead to the reduction of the
pollution.
• By upgrading terminals in the city , one of its major problems-
unemployment, can be solved. This will increase the rate of
employment and benefit the state.
• We shall use HEPA air filters to filter the cabin air. We refresh the
air every 2 to 3 minutes. We will provide the tourists free PPE kits.
We shall also make sure that everyone follows the safety norms at
all point of times.
• We shall try reducing the frequency of the flights as this will help

OUR FUTURE PROSPECTS

• There has always been a culture of innovation within the GMR Group
and we have been pushing hard to think differently and follow a
policy of ‘unlearning and relearning through our digital initiatives’.
• Our idea of digital airport will need to combine three key elements –
product, service and brand – for both the physical and digital
environments.
• A single token ID system to do away with multiple screening, use of
artificial intelligence(AI) which will allow us to achieve high degree of
operational efficiency and use of drones and advanced robotics to
simplify passenger baggage operations.
• The GMR Group is planning to consolidate its airport business with
selective divestment opportunities the other sectors of the company.
• The GMR group is focusing on reducing debt and improving cash flow
and profitability.
• The next international airport we are currently working on within the
state, will be ready for operation within the next three years.
• Very soon the work of the new aerodrome will begin.
• Due to the lockdown and covid 19, there has been a delay in few
projects which is likely to push the project cost but its impact could
be minimized so there will be cost escalation but GMR has the ability
to minimise the impact.
• The new airport, would have a capacity to handle 30 million
passengers annually once fully operational.
• The previous airports have far exceeded their target capacity of
passengers and we have already embarked on an expansion plan to
increase the capacity of passengers per annum by 2022.
• The concession period for the Greenfield project will be 40 years with
a possible extension of another 20 years through a bid process. The
airport will be built under the BOT (Build Operate Transfer) model.
• Only up to 30 per cent of the non-aeronautical revenues, which
include segments like retail, food and beverages and parking, would
be used for cross-subsidisation of aeronautical charges.
• We have also indicated how our airport business, with major
investments, is well poised for the next phase of growth.
• Despite the ongoing turbulence, our airport business has huge
underlying opportunities and will continue to be the growth engine
for both the company and the state.
• The airport expansion has been well funded and is insulated in the
near term from the disruptions by the pandemic for which we are
rescheduling the future capital expenditure.
• The gas based assets of the company will be efficiently invested to
meet round the clock demand for clean energy.
• We also have potential to monetize our various land assets at the
airport and also at strategic industrial locations.
• We are also planning to enable a successful trial of biometric enabled
gate processing, which is already in operation at various airports.
• We will be closely working towards finding the right balance between
investments, customer satisfaction while dealing with the security
related issues and acknowledging the need to be more financially
and environmentally stable to tackle the uncertainties of the future.
• We will also be improving the airspace capacity with the improved
technologies and working closely with stakeholders to generate
various modes of solutions.
• Our group is also planning to install an innovation lab which allow us
to imagine in a more focused way and we will work closely with
startups in the state to have more feasibility and agility in our
approach.
• This approach of the GMR of embracing collaboration and failing fast
puts us in a strong position and taking front seat in the development
of the state and henceforth of the nation’s.
