The company has already made a beginning with a bid to develop the Amritsar airport.
Confirming the news, E. Sudhir Reddy, chairman and managing director, IVRCL, said the company had “partnered with a Spanish airport development” firm for the purpose, but declined to name it.
“We have submitted bids for the development of Amritsar International Airport in Punjab,” said Reddy adding, “we have partnered with a Spanish airports development company to bid for the Amritsar airport project.”
IVRCL isn’t keen on being the developer for all such projects, Reddy said, adding, “we are not necessarily interested in owning airport assets.
