You were focusing on inventory 10 month out so I am assuming you will be in India around Mar-Apr 2013 which can be hot as hell. So keep those things in consideration.
Yes, the officials are the same, but I believe the setup is better organized and the arrival hall/ immigration area is much larger with more lanes in DEL. I have used it once but I was arriving on an Emirates flight in the middle of the day, which is not a busy time of the day in DEL.
