Not at the this point please. Can we start with the lounges used by IbA first and see how we go...
Additionally "lounges in India" are for the India forum, while "lounges used by IbA" are relevant for this forum. (Also note that the lounges used by foreign carriers would typically be covered in their own forums.)
P.S. I'm expecting detailed AI lounge facilites and access guides from you!
