The new integrated passenger terminal building at the airport was inaugurated by the then civil aviation minister Ajit Singh on 24 March 2013.[9]

The terminal building spreads over 19,600 square metres (0.0196 km2) and was constructed at a cost of ₹138 crore (equivalent to ₹199 crore or US$25 million in 2020). It has two aero-bridges and six escalators and the equipment used was imported from China, Germany and Singapore. The terminal has a capacity to handle 500 domestic and 200 international passengers at a time.[10]

In March 2013, the tax on aviation turbine fuel sold at the airport was reduced from 20% to 4% to attract more airlines to the city. Overnight parking of aircraft at the airport was made free-of-charge to encourage airlines to schedule their aircraft to remain overnight, so that there may be more early-morning flights to the metro cities.[11] The Airports Authority of India also constructed three more parking bays, thereby making it the first Tier-II airport in India to have eight aircraft parking bays.[12][13][14] Two new aerobridges will be added to the terminal[14][15] and the runway is to be extended as well.[16][17]


Cargo terminal


A new cargo terminal was inaugurated in February 2017 by the then Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das. The terminal can handle 50 MT of cargo everyday and is equipped with explosive trace detection equipment, cargo X-ray machines, hardware security machines, and CCTV cameras.[18][19]

De acuerdo con las estadísticas de AAI, en torno a 200.000 pasajeros utilizan el aeropuerto anualmente convirtiéndose así en uno de los aeropuertos con el crecimiento más rápido del país.
