## ANSWER

Minister of State in the Ministry of CIVIL AVIATION

(Dr Mahesh Sharma)

(a): The State/UT-wise details of profit-making airports in the country belonging to Airports Authority of India (AAI)  are at Annexure-I.

(b) & (c): Yes,  Madam. The details of AAI airports incurring losses during the years 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 are at AnnexureII. The losses incurred at various airports are primarily due to low air traffic movements resulting in lesser aeronautical revenue, low nonaeronautical revenue potential and basic operating expenditure on account of regulatory/IATA and security requirements.

(d): AAI has initiated several steps to make the loss making airports viable and profitable by development of cargo activities, enhancement of non-aeronautical  revenue  through  revision  of  rates  and  award  of contracts through master concessions, allowing operation of flying schools at  non-operational  airports,  encouraging  Maintenance,  Repair  &

Overhauling (MRO) activities, revision of base rates etc.
