New Hosur Airport Near Bengaluru: Land Acquisition & Clearance Process Begins


✅ What is planned

  • The Tamil Nadu government has announced a new greenfield international airport at Hosur (Krishnagiri district), to serve both the Hosur region and southern Bengaluru / border zone.
  • The project is expected to span nearly 2,000 acres of land.
  • The capacity has been targetted at around 30 million passengers annually.

📍 Location & site status

  • A number of potential sites were under consideration. Among them: near the existing private airstrip of Taneja Aerospace and Aviation Ltd (TAAL) at Belagondapalli, and other sites near Ulagam / Shoolagiri region.
  • In August 2025 the government finalised a site in Shoolagiri taluk, between Berigai and Bagalur, around 15.5 km east of the TAAL airstrip.
  • Land acquisition is being planned for around 2,200-2,300 acres in this area.

⚠️ Key regulatory / constraint issues

  • One major hurdle: There is a concession agreement with the Bengaluru International Airport Ltd (BIAL) / Government of India that no new international airport can be built within 150 km (aerial distance) of Bengaluru’s Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) until 2033. Hosur falls within that radius.
  • Therefore, though the project can proceed with land-acquisition, surveys, approvals etc., commercial aviation operations may face timing / clearance constraints.
  • Clearance is needed from the Ministry of Defence (due to controlled airspace) and from other bodies (e.g., airspace clearance, obstacle surveys).

🕒 Timeline & next steps

  • The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has conducted feasibility / OPTIONS surveys and shortlisted sites.
  • The government has instructed the Krishnagiri district administration to prepare land-acquisition plans.
  • Estimated time to completion is about 8 years, given the scale and regulatory hurdles.

💡 Strategic importance & impact

  • The project is intended to support and boost the industrial ecosystem in Hosur (auto, EVs, electronics) and neighbouring Tamil Nadu districts (Krishnagiri, Dharmapuri).
  • It will also improve connectivity for the Bengaluru metro / border region, relieving pressure on existing major airports and improving logistics for manufacturing.
